Effects of eugenol and non-eugenol endodontic fillers on short post retention, in primary anterior teeth: an in vitro study. 2005

Fabiana B Teixeira Alves, and Ricardo de Sousa Vieira

Pediatric Dentistry Division, Santa Catarina Federal University, FlorianOpolis-SC, Brazil.

The aim of this study was to measure in vitro the tensile bond strength of short composite posts in anterior primary teeth filled with calcium hydroxide and eugenol-based endodontic filling materials. Means of tensile strength ranged from 2.66 to 3.56 MPa. Statistical analysis (ANOVA) revealed that there were no statistically significant differences between the groups. It was concluded that the type of filling material used in the endodontic treatment did not interfere with the tensile strength.
