RESUMO
INTRODUCTION: To assess the effect of combinations of two different endodontic sealers used in initial and endodontic retreatment on the bond strength of the secondary obturation and the penetrability of the sealers. METHODS: Forty-eight mandibular premolars were used, receiving standardized endodontic access and biomechanical preparation. Twenty-four teeth received AH Plus sealer (AHP) in primary obturation and the others received Bio-C Sealer (BCS). Retreatment protocol was performed with an R50 instrument. The samples were further subdivided into four groups (n = 12) based on the combination of primary/secondary obturation sealers: AHP/AHP; AHP/BCS; BCS/AHP; and BCS/BCS. Four samples from each subgroup received the addition of fluorophores to the sealer for penetrability analysis using laser scanning confocal fluorescence microscopy. The root portion on the 8 push-out samples was sectioned into 6 slices of 1.0 mm. Bond strength (BS) was assessed using a universal testing machine until displacement of the filling mass. Failure pattern was evaluated under a stereomicroscope (20× magnification). BS data were analyzed using two-way analysis of variance followed by Tukey's test (P < .05), and the association between the failure pattern and BS value was assessed using the chi-square test (P < .05). Penetrability was qualitatively evaluated. RESULTS: The highest BS values were observed in the AHP/AHP (4.54 ± 1.5 MPa) and BCS/AHP (5.00 ± 1.0 MPa) groups (P < .05), with a higher percentage of adhesive failures to the filling material for all groups. Laser scanning confocal fluorescence microscopy images indicated greater penetrability of AHP compared to BCS, both in initial treatment and retreatment. CONCLUSION: AHP sealer exhibited higher BS and greater penetrability compared to BCS sealer.

The objective of this study is to evaluate the effect of 1-ethyl-3-(3-dimethylaminopropyl)-carbodiimide (EDC) and chitosan (CHI) on the adhesive interface of resin cements to root dentine. Forty-five upper canines were sectioned, endodontically treated, prepared and divided into three groups according to dentine treatment (distilled water-DW, CHI 0.2% and EDC 0.5) and in three subgroups according to resin cement: RelyX ARC, Panavia F 2.0 or RelyX U200. Slices were obtained, with five slices of each third submitted to the analysis of the adaptation of the adhesive interface through scores and the perimeter with gaps in confocal laser scanning microscopy and one slice of each third later evaluated qualitatively in scanning electron microscopy. The results were analyzed using with Kruskal-Wallis and Spearman correlation tests. There was no difference in adaptation for the different resin cements (p = .438). EDC presented better adaptation when compared to the groups treated with DW and CHI (p < .001), while the CHI and DW presented similar adaptation values (p = .365). No difference was observed in the perimeter referring to the gap areas for the different resin cements (p = .510). EDC showed a lower percentage of perimeters with gaps when compared to CHI (p < .001), with the percentage of perimeter with gaps of teeth treated with CHI being lower than DW (p < .001). A positive correlation coefficient equal to 0.763 was obtained between the perimeter with gaps and the adaptation data of the adhesive interface (p < .001). EDC resulted in better adaptation of the adhesive interface and a lower percentage of perimeters with gaps compared to chitosan.

Chemical composition of temporary cements interferes in the bond strength and quality of the bond interface of glass fiber posts to root dentin. The aim of the present study was to evaluate the influence of different temporary cements on the bond strength of fiberglass posts and resin cement. Thirty-two maxillary central incisor roots were standardized at 15 mm length. The root canals were prepared with Reciproc R50 and filled with a R50 single cone and AH Plus. Ten mm of filling material was removed with a heated Schilder condenser, leaving 5 mm of apical filling material. The roots were randomly distributed into 4 groups (n = 8). In the control group, the root canal was prepared with a standard drill according to the post diameter (DC #1, FGM, Joinville, Brazil), irrigated with 5 mL of distilled water and immediately received the fiberglass post cemented with self-adhesive resin cement. For the other groups, cores were made with temporary intraradicular retainers cemented with different temporary cements: methacrylate-based resin (Bifix Temp - Voco), calcium hydroxide-based (Provicol - Voco) and zinc oxide-based - eugenol-free (Relyx Temp NE - 3M). After 7 days, mechanical removal of the temporary retainers, preparation, irrigation of the root canal and cementation of the fiberglass post were performed, following the same protocol that had been performed in the control group. The roots were sectioned to obtain 3 slices per root third. The most cervical section of each third was used for the push-out test and failure pattern analysis, while the most apical section was subjected to analysis of the adhesive interface by scanning electron microscopy (SEM). The BS data were compared between groups using the two-way ANOVA and Tukey post-test. The failure pattern results were expressed in percentage and compared between groups using the chi-square test and the material adaptation data at the bond interface were evaluated using the Kruskal-Wallis and Dwass-Steel-Critchlow-Fligner tests. The results showed higher BS in the cervical third, with a higher value in the control group (10.8 ± 0.94) and Bifix Temp group (9.78 ± 0.71), with no statistically significant difference between these groups (P > .05). The middle and apical thirds showed no statistically significant difference (P > .05). As regards the type of failure, a higher percentage of mixed adhesive failures was observed for all groups. Analysis of the adhesive interface by SEM showed that the temporary cement Bifix Temp showed greater adaptation at the bond interface. It was concluded that the methacrylate-based resin temporary cement showed the highest bond strength values and best adaptation to root dentin than the zinc oxide-based and calcium hydroxide-based temporary cements.
