To compare the efficacy of different surface treatments (fiber post) with laser activated irrigation (LAI) technique (various root canal solutions) on root canal dentine in terms of push‐out bond strength (PBS) in a fiber post. In this study, 200 premolars were assigned into groups according to various irrigation techniques: 2.5% sodium hypochlorite (NaOCl), 17% ethylene diamine tetra acetic acid (EDTA), and 17% EDTA + LAI. In addition, the fiber posts were separated into five groups, (n = 30) according to the surface pretreatment performed: sandblasting, hydrofluoric acid (HF), Erbium, Chromium:Yttrium Scandium‐Gallium‐Garnet (Er,Cr:YSGG) laser, Neodymium‐Doped Yttrium Aluminum Garnet (Nd,YAG) laser and as untreated surface. The posts were cemented using dual‐cure resin cement and subjected to a PBS test. Data were analyzed by one way‐ANOVA, Tukey, and Tamhane T2 tests. The PBS values were increased in all parts of the tooth in the EDTA and EDTA + LAI treated groups and in groups treated with Er,Cr:YSGG laser fiber posts. In groups in which EDTA and EDTA + LAI were applied, it was observed that dentinal tubules were open according to the distribution and number of dentinal tubule configurations. The improvement of the PBS between fiber post/resin cement/root dentine was observed via the use of fiber post surface treatments with different irrigation techniques.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
