MARQUES, Juliana das Neves et al. Effects of NaOCl on bond strength of fiber posts cemented to dentin using a conventional and a self-adhesive cement . Rev. Bras. Odontol. [online]. 2016, vol.73, n.4, pp. 283-287. ISSN 1984-3747.

Objective: to evaluate the effect of sodium hypochlorite (NaOCl) on the bond strength (BS) of fiberglass posts cemented to dentin using the conventional cement Allcem or the self-adhesive cement RelyX U200. Materials and Methods: forty bovine teeth had their crowns removed and the roots standardized in 7 mm, referring to the cervical and middle thirds. The root canals were prepared and roots were divided into four groups (n = 10). In AD/U200 and AD/AAC groups, the root canals were irrigated with distilled water. In NaOCl/U200 and NaOCl/AAC groups, the root canals were immersed in 5.25% NaOCl for 20 min and then irrigated with distilled water. The posts were cemented with RelyX U200 in groups AD/U200 and NaOCl/U200, and with Allcem cement in groups AD/AAC and NaOCl/AAC. The roots were segmented and discs were subjected to the push-out test. The BS values were statistically analyzed by Kruskal-Wallis and Mann-Whitney tests (α = 0.05). The fracture pattern was analyzed using a stereomicroscope. Results: the NaOCl showed a deleterious effect on bond strength for both cements. The RU values were higher for Ambar/Allcem groups compared with the U200 groups. Regarding the fracture pattern, there was a predominance of type I, adhesive cement/dentin. Conclusion: NaOCl showed a deleterious effect on the bond strength of fiber posts cemented to dentin using RelyX U200 and Allcem cements.
