Abstract

Objective

The aim of this study was to evaluate the bond strength of three calcium silicate-based root-end filling materials.

Materials and methods

The root canals of 30 single-rooted teeth were endodontically treated; their root ends were resected and root-end cavities were prepared using ultrasonic tip. The teeth were randomly divided into three groups according to the material: (1) Micro-Mega mineral trioxide aggregate (MM-MTA), (2) Biodentine, and (3) TotalFill root repair material (RRM). Push-out test was performed using universal testing machine, and failure mode was analyzed by stereomicroscope. The data were statistically analyzed using Kruskal-Wallis and Man-Whitney post hoc tests. All p values < 0.05 were considered significant.

Results

TotalFill RRM exhibited significantly higher bond strength (12.69 MPa) than Biodentine (9.34 MPa, p = 0.023) and MM-MTA (7.89 MPa, p = 0.002). The difference between Biodentine and MM-MTA was not significant (p = 0.447). Mixed failures were the most noted in all three groups. MM-MTA had more adhesive failures than Biodentine and TotalFill, and no cohesive failures, but without statistical significance (p = 0.591).

Conclusion

The bond strength was the highest for TotalFill RRM.

Clinical relevance

In order to provide a persistent apical seal, root-end filling materials should resist dislodgement under static conditions, during function and operative procedures. TotalFill RRM exhibited higher bond strength to dentin than MM-MTA and Biodentine.
