Sažetak
To evaluate microleakage along Glassix fibre posts cemented with three different materials. The root canals of central maxillary incisors were obturated and restored with Glassix posts (Harald Nordin sa, Chailly/Montreux, Switzerland) cemented with Harvard cement (Richter & Hoffmann, Harvard Dental GmbH, Berlin, Germany), Fuji PLUS cement (GC Corporation, Tokyo, Japan) and Variolink II cement (Vivadent, Schaan, Lichtenstein) in three groups of fifteen canals each. Twenty unrestored canals served as a control group, 10 obturated with gutta-percha and sealer, the remaining 10 with gutta-percha only. Coronal microleakage was evaluated using a fluid transport system. The movement of an air bubble in a capillary glass tube connected to the apex of the experimental root section was measured over 5-min. periods. Measuring was performed four times for each specimen and the mean values recorded. Analyses of variance and Duncan's test were performed. The highest values of microleakage occurred in the group cemented with Harvard cement, followed by Fuji PLUS and Variolink II cements. Fuji PLUS and Variolink II showed statistically significant (p < 0.00001) less microleakage compared with Harvard cement. Canals with Glassix posts cemented with Variolink II cement had the least leakage as assessed using a fluid transport system.
