Outcome of some studies on different cements retention for post and cores

Author Type of post Compared cements Conclusion
Habib et al., 2005[154] Custom cast posts ZP and self-etch dual RC ZP had higher retentive values compared to RC
Duncan and Pameijer, 1998[155] Parallel titanium posts RC, ZP, GI, and RMGI RC provided higher retention than others
Chan et al., 1993[156] Stainless steel paraposts ZP, ZPC, GI, RC Stainless steel posts cemented with RC exhibited higher resistance to dislodgement by vertical tensile forces
Cohen et al., 1999[157] Stainless steel posts RC and ZP Stainless steel dowels have been shown to be more retentive thancarbon fiber posts when cemented with either RC or ZP cement
Lencioni et al., 2010[158] Pure titanium posts Self-etch RC, self-adhesive RC, ZP Posts fixed with self-adhesive RC presented superior bond strength compared to ZP and self-etch cements
Ubaldini et al., 2018[159] Fiber posts Etch and rinse RC and self-etch adhesive RC Etch and rinse RC provided higher retention for fiber posts
Radke RA, 1988[74] Cast gold posts ZP, GI, ZPC ZP and GI cements were found to be more retentive than ZPC
Sahmali et al., 2004[160] Ceramic posts and carbon fiber posts Self-etch RC, RMGI, GI Self-etch RC had significantly higher bond strength than two other cements
Hagge et al., 2002[161] Prefabricated post(paraposts) Self-etch RC, ZP Self-etch RC demonstrated higher retention than ZP
Bonfante et al., 2007[37] Glass fiber posts RMGI, dualcure RC RC provided higher tensile bond strength for glass fiber posts
Menani et al., 2008[162] Cast posts(gold alloypure titanium) ZP, RC Both cements provided similar mean tensile retention
Cohen et al., 1998[163] Flexi-post, access post, titanium post Composite cement, ZP, advance, duet, and GI Composite cement provided higher retention for all types of posts
Sen et al., 2004[164] Prefabricated posts(ParaPost, Flexi-Post) Etch and rinse RC, ParaPost Cement, Flexi-Flow Natural, and ZP Flexi-post showed significantly higher retentive strengths compared to non-threaded posts RC significantly increased the dowel retention compared to ZP
Ertugrul and Ismail, 2005[76] Cast metal posts RC, ZP ZP cement provided greater tensile bond strength than RC with and without silane coating agent

ZP: Zinc phosphate; GI: Glassionomer; RC: Resin cement; RMGI: Resin-modified glass ionomer
