Fatigue resistance of fiber post and cement/build-up materials.
Objectives:The purpose of this study was to evaluate the fatigue resistance to cycling loading of teeth restored with fiber post and different build-up systems. Methods: Forty human, sound single-rooted teeth were selected and stored in 0.02% thymol solution. The crowns were removed by cutting the teeth at the cement-enamel junction, thereafter endodontic treatment was performed using the vertical condensation technique. The roots were partially embedded in epoxy resin and randomly assigned to four groups. The specimens were restored with the same type of quartz fiber posts (DT Light Post, RTD, Grenoble, France), but different cements and build-up systems were used: 1)All-Bond2+C&B Cement+B…
Effect of endodontic treatment on fatigue resistance of fiber posts bonding
Objectives: The aim of this study is to evaluate the effect of the endodontic treatment on the fatigue resistance of endodontic post adhesive interfaces. Materials and methods: 50 single-rooted human teeth have been severed at the cement-enamel junction and randomly assigned to 5 groups receiving different endodontic treatments as follows: 1) distilled water + gutta-percha (control); 2) NaOCl 5% + gutta-percha and Pulp Canal Sealer EWT (Kerr); 3) NaOCl 5% + gutta-percha and Top Seal (Dentsply-Maillefer); 4) NaOCl 5% and EDTA 10% (alternatively) + gutta-percha and Pulp Canal Sealer EWT; 5) NaOCl 5% and EDTA 10% (alternatively) + gutta-percha and Top Seal. Subsequently, Light-Post DT #2 quart…
