Effect of different luting agents on the bond strength of CAD-CAM milled glass fiber posts to different levels of root-dentin
摘要
This study evaluated the effect of different resin cements (RCs) on the push-out bond strength (BS) of CAD-CAM milled glass fiber posts (GFPs) in different intraradicular levels (cervical, middle and apical). Thirty-three single-rooted premolars were standardized to 14-mm root length. Canals were prepared using gutta-percha and calcium hydroxide-based sealer (Sealer 26) via the single-cone technique. After removing 9 mm of filling, canals were molded with acrylic resin to produce CAD-CAM GFPs (Fiber CAD Lab) by subtractive manufacturing. GFPs were randomly cemented (n = 11) using: self-etching dual-cure RC (Panavia F2.0), conventional dual-cure RC (RelyX Ultimate), or self-cure RC (Multilink N), per manufacturer instructions. After 48 h, roots were sliced (cervical, middle, apical) and subjected to push-out testing (0.5 mm/min). Failure mode (FM) was assessed (40 × magnification). BS data were analyzed by two-way ANOVA/Tukey (α = 0.05); FM by Fisher’s exact test. The self-etching dual-cure RC showed significantly higher BS than the self-cure RC (p < 0.05). Conventional dual-cure RC showed intermediate values (p > 0.05). Root thirds showed no significant differences. FM was unaffected by RC or root region (p > 0.05), with mixed failures predominating. The bond strength of milled GFPs was influenced by the resin cement type, but not by the root third.
