AB  - This study assessed push-out strength, cement layer thickness, and interfacial nanoleakage of luted fiber posts fabricated with computer-aided design/computer-assisted manufacture (CAD/CAM) technology after use of 1 of 3 scanning techniques, namely, direct scanning of the post space (DS), scanning of a polyether impression of the post space (IS), and scanning of a plaster model of the post space (MS). Thirty premolars were randomly assigned to three groups corresponding to the scanning technique. Posts were computer-designed and milled from experimental fiber-reinforced composite blocks. The mean (+/- SD) values for push-out strength and cement thickness were 17.1 +/- 7.7 MPa and 162 +/- 24 mu m, respectively, for DS, 10.7 +/- 4.6 MPa and 187 +/- 50 mu m for IS, and 12.0 +/- 7.2 MPa and 258 +/- 78 mu m for MS specimens. Median (interquartile range) interfacial nanoleakage scores were 3 (2-4) for DS, 2.5 (2-4) for IS, and 3 (2-4) for MS. Post retention was better for fiber posts fabricated by DS technique than for those fabricated by IS and MS. Cement thickness did not differ between DS and IS specimens, but the cement layer was significantly thicker in the MS group than in the other two groups. Scanning technique did not affect sealing ability, as the three groups had comparable nanoleakage values.

AB  - Purpose: To assess the push-out strength, the cement layer thickness and the interfacial nanoleakage of prefabricated fiber posts, CAD/CAM fiber posts and metal cast posts cemented into oval-shaped root canals. Methods: Oval-shaped post spaces were prepared in 30 single-rooted premolars. Roots were randomly assigned to three groups (n=10), according to the post type to be inserted: Group 1: Prefabricated fiber post (D.T. Light-Post X-RO Illusion); Group 2: Cast metal post; Group 3: CAD/CAM-fabricated fiber post (experimental fiber blocks). In Group 3, post spaces were sprayed with scan powder (VITA), scanned with an inEos 4.2 scanner, and fiber posts were milled using an inLab MC XL CAD/CAM milling unit. All posts were cemented using Gradia Core dual-cure resin cement in combination with Gradia core self-etching bond (GC). After 24 hours, the specimens were sectioned perpendicular to the long axis into six 1 mm thick sections, which were differentiated by the root level. Sections from six roots per group were used to measure the cement thickness and subsequently for the thin-slice push-out test, whereas the sections from the remaining four teeth were assigned to interfacial nanoleakage test. The cement thickness around the posts was measured in micrometers (mu m) on the digital images acquired with a digital microscope using the Digimizer software. Thin-slice push-out test was conducted using a universal testing machine at the crosshead speed of 0.5 mm/minute and the bond strength was expressed in megaPascals (MPa). The interfacial nanoleakage was observed under light microscope and quantified by scoring the depth of silver nitrate penetration along the post-cement-dentin interfaces. The obtained results were statistically analyzed by Kruskal-Wallis ANOVA, followed by the Dunn's Multiple Range test for post hoc comparisons. The level of significance was set at P  lt  0.05. Results: Statistically significant differences were found among the groups in push-out bond strength, cement thickness and interfacial nanoleakage (P  lt  0.05). CAD/CAM-fabricated fiber posts achieved retention that was comparable to that of cast metal posts and significantly higher than that of prefabricated fiber posts. The cement layer thickness around CAD/CAM-fabricated fiber posts was significantly lower than around prefabricated fiber posts, but higher than that around cast metal posts. Root level was not a significant factor for push-out strength in any of the groups, whereas it significantly affected cement layer thickness only in the prefabricated fiber post group. No differences were observed in interfacial nanoleakage between CAD-CAM fabricated and prefabricated fiber posts, while nanoleakage recorded in cast metal posts was significantly lower.

AB  - Aim To verify whether the filler load of luting agents influences the radiopacity of intraradicularly placed posts. Methodology Digital radiographs of the following posts were taken: RelyX Fiber Post (3M ESPE), GC Fiber Post (GC Corporation), DT Light Post Illusion (RTD), DT Light SL Post (RTD), Endo-Composipost (RTD), FibreKleer Parallel Post (Jeneric Pentron Incorporated), FRC Postec (Ivoclar Vivadent), Parapost Taper Lux (Coltene/Whaledent AG), Radix Fiber Post (Dentsply Maillefer), EverStick Post (Stick Tech Ltd), Dentin Post X (Komet), Tech 21 X-op (Isasan), ENA Post (Micerium). Post radiopacity was measured in millimetres of aluminium (mmAl) with reference to an aluminium step wedge. Two extracted contralateral premolars were root filled. After post space preparation, taking the midpoint of the post hole as a reference, each tooth was cut longitudinally into two halves in a mesiodistal direction. On each half, the exposed root dentine was ground flat to the deepest point of the post space, and an even layer of cement was placed and light-cured. To obtain a clinically relevant layer of cement, the material thickness was reduced to 75 mu m by grinding with wet abrasive paper. A cement formulation with 30 wt% of filler was tested in one premolar, whilst a formulation with 70 wt% of filler was utilized in the contralateral tooth. Posts were then placed between the two facing root halves of each premolar, and radiopacity was measured in mmAl. Data were analysed using t-test for paired samples (P  lt  0.05). Results Radiopacity of posts ranged between 1.44 (ENA Post) and 5.78 mmAl (FibreKleer). In the presence of the more heavily filled cement, significantly higher values of post radiopacity were measured (P  lt  0.001). Conclusion The radiopacity of the luting agent contributed to the overall post radiovisibility within the root. Even when the cement with lower filler content was used in combination with the least radiodense dowels, the post was detectable within the root.

AB  - The aim was to assess the influence of cement translucency on the retentive strength of luted fiber posts. Twenty extracted human premolars were randomly divided into four equal groups, based on the combinations of materials to be tested. Two post types of the same size, shape, and chemical composition, but different light-transmission properties [Translucent post (TP) and Opaque post (OP)] were selected. The two post types were luted using the etch-and-rinse, light-curing adhesive in combination with two shades of the same resin cement of markedly different light-transmitting ability [Transparent shade (TS) and Opaque shade (OS)]. Early post retention was assessed using the thin-slice push-out test. Post type did not significantly influence post retention; however, cement translucency emerged as a relevant factor in intraradicular cementation, with the TS achieving higher push-out strengths. The between-factor interaction was also statistically significant; specifically, OP-OS yielded significantly lower retentive strengths than all the other groups. Post translucency did not influence post retention, provided that a highly translucent cement was utilized for luting.

AB  - Objectives.To assess depth of cure (DOC), degree of conversion (DC), and flexural strength( FS) of several resin composites with low-stress behavior. Methods. SonicFill (Kerr), SureFil((R)) SDRTM (Dentsply), everX Posterior (GC), Kalore (GC), and Filtek Silorane (3M ESPE) were tested. DOC was measured with the Acetone Shake test. DC was assessed with Fourier Transform Infra-Red spectroscopy on top and at the bottom of 4 mm-thick disk-shaped specimens. Bottom to top ratios of DC percentages were calculated. FS was evaluated with the Three-Point Bending test. DOC, DC, and FS data were statistically analyzed. Results. SureFil((R)) SDRTM and everX Posterior achieved significantly greater DOC than Kalore and Filtek Silorane. Also, SonicFill had significantly greater DOC than Filtek Silorane. Mean top DCs ranged between 71.46% and 52.44%. Kalore and everX Posterior had significantly lower top DCs than the other materials. Mean DC values at 4 mm ranged largely from 57.95% to 6.82%. Kalore and Filtek Silorane had the lowest values of bottom DC and the difference was statistically significant. EverX Posterior and SonicFill recorded significantly higher FSs than the other materials. Significance. SureFil((R)) SDRTM and everX Posterior exhibited DOC over 4 mm, the maximum thickness recommended for bulk placement, while SonicFill recorded DOC values very close to the 4 mm threshold. SonicFill achieved the highest DC at the irradiated surface, as well as at 4 mm depth. SureFil((R)) SDRTM demonstrated similarly uniform curing through the bulk increment. All the tested composites complied with the requirements of FS established by ISO 4049/2009.

Materials and Methods: For ESBS testing, 90 human molars were selected and randomly divided into 9 groups (n = 10) according to the reinforcing fiber to be tested: 1. RTD Quartz Splint additionally impregnated at chair-side with Quartz Splint Resin (RTD); 2. RTD Quartz Splint without additional impregnation; 3. Ribbond- THM (Ribbond) impregnated with OptiBond FL Adhesive; 4: Ribbond Triaxial (Ribbond) impregnated with OptiBond FL Adhesive; 5. Connect (Kerr) impregnated with OptiBond FL Adhesive; 6. Construct (Kerr) impregnated with OptiBond FL Adhesive; 7. everStick PERIO (Stick Tech); 8. everStick C&B (Stick Tech); 9. nonreinforced composite Premise flowable (Kerr). Cylinders of flowable composite reinforced with the fibers were bonded to the intact buccal surface of the teeth. After 24 h of storage, shear loading was performed until failure occurred. FS was assessed performing three- point bending test according to ISO Standard 4049/2000. ESBS and FS data were analyzed using one- way ANOVA, followed by Tukey's HSD test for post- hoc comparisons (p  lt  0.05). Results: For each group, the ESBS and FS, respectively, in MPa were: 1. 17.07 +/- 4.52 and 472.69 +/- 30.49; 2. 14.98 +/- 3.92 and 441.77 +/- 61.43; 3. 18.59 +/- 5.67 and 186.89 +/- 43.89; 4. 16.74 +/- 6.27 and 314.41 +/- 148.52; 5. 14.38 +/- 4.14 and 223.80 +/- 77.35; 6. 16.00 +/- 5.55 and 287.62 +/- 85.91; 7. 16.42 +/- 3.67 and 285.35 +/- 39.68; 8. 23.24 +/- 5.81 and 370.46 +/- 29.26; 9. 12.58 +/- 4.76 and 87.75 +/- 22.87. For most fibers, no significant difference in ESBS was found compared to the control group, except for everStick C&B, which yielded higher ESBS. Nonreinforced composite exhibited the lowest FS, while all fibers positively affected the FS. Conclusions: Fiber reinforcement of flowable composite does not affect its ESBS. The flexural strength of FRCs is significantly influenced by fiber composition and pattern.

AB  - Purpose: To investigate the applicability of flowable composites as post luting agents by assessing the push-out strength of posts. Methods: 36 intact single rooted human premolars were selected. The endodontic treatment was performed and half of the specimens were restored with light transmitting posts (DT Light Post Illusion) and the other half with opaque posts (Tech 21 X-OP). In both groups the following combinations of adhesive/cement were tested: OptiBond Solo Plus/Nexus Third Generation (NX3), XP Bond/SureFil SDR Flow (SDR), and Vertise Flow (VF). Push-out test was used to assess the retentive strength of fiber posts, which was expressed in megapascals (MPa). Specimens were analyzed under a stereomicroscope to determine failure mode (adhesive between luting agent and post, adhesive between luting agent and dentin or mixed failure). Push-out data and failure mode distribution were analyzed by two-way ANOVA and Chi-square test, respectively (P lt  0.05). Results: The statistical analysis revealed that only the type of luting material significantly influenced push-out bond strength of the post (P lt  0.001). SDR (9.00 +/- 2.17 MLPa) performed similarly to the control group NX3 (7.15 +/- 1.74 MPa), while VF (4.81 +/- 1.51 MPa) should significantly lower bond strength. Failure modes differed significantly among groups.

AB  - Purpose: To evaluate in vitro the all-in-one adhesive G-Bond Plus/G-aenial Bond (GBP), used according to the selective enamel etching (SEE) technique, compared to Optibond FL, an etch-and-rinse adhesive tested as control (C). Methods: 133 molars provided specimens for enamel and dentin shear bond strength (SBS) testing, microleakage measurements in class 5 restorations, and scanning electron microscope observations of demineralization patterns produced by GBP and 37% phosphoric acid (PA). Results: On enamel: C displayed the highest SBS. PA etching significantly increased enamel SBS of GBP. No statistically significant difference in SBS was noted among the bonding procedures on dentin. On both substrates, C revealed the most satisfactory seal. PA pre-etching did not significantly affect the sealing ability of GBP on either substrate.

AB  - Purpose: To evaluate the microleakage of Class II cavities restored with experimental low-shrinking resin composites proposed for bulk filling and to measure their microtensile bond strength (mu TBS) to dentin and compare to those of previously marketed low-shrinkage composites. Methods: Class II cavities (7 mm occluso-gingival height, 2 mm mesio-distal depth of the box, 4 mm occlusal depth, 4 mm bucco-lingual width) were prepared in 50 molars and randomly divided into five groups (n=10), according to the material: SureFil SDR flow (SDR), Filtek Silorane (FS) and experimental materials (G-aenial Flo bulk fill, GF; G-aenial Universal Flo bulk fill, GUF; GC Kalore bulk fill, GK). Microleakage was separately assessed at enamel and dentin margins by scoring the depth of silver-nitrate penetration. Twenty teeth divided into five groups (n= 4) were selected for mu TBS testing. The same materials as for microleakage assessment were placed in bulk to mid-coronal dentin. Microtensile beams were loaded in tension, and mu TBS at failure was calculated in MPa. Microleakage and mu TBS data were analyzed by ANOVA on ranks, followed Dunn's post hoc test (P lt  0.05). Results: Microleakage was not observed at the enamel interface in any of the groups. At the dentin interface, SDR recorded significantly higher microleakage than the other materials. mu TBS of GF, GUF and GK did not differ among each other (33 +/- 12 MPa, 31 +/- 11 MPa, 30 +/- 9 MPa, respectively), while SDR (63 +/- 17 MPa) and FS (55 +/- 17MPa) achieved significantly higher mu TBS values. No direct association between the sealing properties and the bond strength values was observed.

AB  - Background: The aim of this study was to evaluate the influence of preliminary phosphoric acid etching on the microleakage of a self-adhering flowable composite and a self-etch adhesive used in combination with the proprietary flowable composite. Methods: Standard Class V cavities were prepared on the buccal side of 20 extracted sound human molars. Specimens were randomly divided into five groups: (1) Gel Etchant/Optibond FL/Premise Flowable; (2) Vertise Flow; (3) Optibond XTR/Premise Flowable; (4) Gel Etchant/Vertise Flow; and (5) Gel Etchant/Optibond XTR/Premise Flowable (Kerr). The interfacial sealing ability of the materials was evaluated by scoring the depth of silver nitrate penetration and through scanning electron microscopy observations. Differences in leakage at either the enamel or the dentine interface were evaluated for statistical significance (KruskalWallis ANOVA, MannWhitney U test, p  lt  0.05). Results: At the enamel interface, no significant differences were found among the materials. On dentine, Gel Etchant/Vertise Flow had the highest leakage scores and the difference was statistically significant (p  lt  0.05). Conclusions: The early sealing ability of the self-adhering flowable composite and the self-etch adhesive in Class V restorations did not significantly benefit from selective enamel etching. Preliminary phosphoric acid etching of dentine negatively affected the quality of the seal when using the adhesive-free flowable composite.

AB  - Purpose: To assess the influence of preliminary phosphoric acid-etching on shear bond strength (SBS) to enamel and dentin of a self-adhering restorative composite and of a new self-etch adhesive used in combination with the proprietary flowable composite. Methods: 100 human molars were selected. SBS was assessed on flat buccal enamel surfaces and mid-coronal dentin. Teeth from each group were divided into five subgroups (n=10): (1) FL: etch-and-rinse adhesive OptiBond FL/Premise flowable; (2) XTR: 2-step self-etch adhesive OptiBond XTR/Premise flowable; (3) eXTR: OptiBond XTR on etched substrates/Premise flowable; (4) VF: self-adhering flowable composite Vertise Flow; (5) eVF: Vertise Flow on etched substrates. Specimens were stressed in shear until failure. Failure modes were evaluated under a stereomicroscope. Data were analyzed by two-way ANOVA and Fisher's exact test (P lt  0.05). Results: Dental substrate, material and between-factor interaction significantly influenced SBS (MPa). In FL group (16.83 +/- 2.93) significantly higher SBS to enamel than in the other groups (XTR 8.59 +/- 4.39; eXTR 7.04 +/- 3.63; VF 6.61 +/- 2,41; eVF 9.87 +/- 4.24) was measured. On dentin FL (8.15 +/- 3.88) performed similarly to XTR (10.60 +/- 5.0), eXTR (9.60 +/- 4.91) and eVF (5.48 +/- 4.94); VF recorded significantly lower SBS (2.94 +/- 2.79 MPa). Failure modes differed significantly among groups. (Am J Dent 2012;25:239-243).

abstract = "Purpose: To assess the influence of preliminary phosphoric acid-etching on shear bond strength (SBS) to enamel and dentin of a self-adhering restorative composite and of a new self-etch adhesive used in combination with the proprietary flowable composite. Methods: 100 human molars were selected. SBS was assessed on flat buccal enamel surfaces and mid-coronal dentin. Teeth from each group were divided into five subgroups (n=10): (1) FL: etch-and-rinse adhesive OptiBond FL/Premise flowable; (2) XTR: 2-step self-etch adhesive OptiBond XTR/Premise flowable; (3) eXTR: OptiBond XTR on etched substrates/Premise flowable; (4) VF: self-adhering flowable composite Vertise Flow; (5) eVF: Vertise Flow on etched substrates. Specimens were stressed in shear until failure. Failure modes were evaluated under a stereomicroscope. Data were analyzed by two-way ANOVA and Fisher's exact test (P lt  0.05). Results: Dental substrate, material and between-factor interaction significantly influenced SBS (MPa). In FL group (16.83 +/- 2.93) significantly higher SBS to enamel than in the other groups (XTR 8.59 +/- 4.39; eXTR 7.04 +/- 3.63; VF 6.61 +/- 2,41; eVF 9.87 +/- 4.24) was measured. On dentin FL (8.15 +/- 3.88) performed similarly to XTR (10.60 +/- 5.0), eXTR (9.60 +/- 4.91) and eVF (5.48 +/- 4.94); VF recorded significantly lower SBS (2.94 +/- 2.79 MPa). Failure modes differed significantly among groups. (Am J Dent 2012;25:239-243).",

AB  - To retrospectively evaluate the long-term clinical performance of three types of fiber posts after a service period of 7-11 years. Methods: 985 posts were included in the study: 615 Composiposts, 160 Estethic Posts and 210)Esthetic Plus Posts were placed into endodontically treated teeth. Four combinations of dentin adhesives/luting materials were used. Endodontic and prosthodontic results were recorded. Results: A 7-11 % failure rate was recorded for the three types of posts. A total of 79 failures were recorded: 39 due to endodontic reasons, one root fracture, one fiber post fracture, 17 crown dislodgements and 21 due to post debonding. The mechanical failures were always related to the lack of coronal tooth structure. The results indicated that fiber posts in combination with bonding/luting materials may be used routinely for restoring endodontically treated teeth. Mechanical failure of restored teeth with fiber posts can be related to the amount of residual coronal structure.
