Different letters and symbols represent statistical significance among the factors studies (P ≤ 0.05).

Asterisks (∗) compare the water immersion times (24 h and 7 days) within each resin cement and curing mode.

Capital letters compare the curing mode factor within each water immersion time.

Lower case letters compare resin cements irrespective of curing mode and water immersion time.
