Aim: To compare the adhesive strength of FRC glass
fibers under different conditions on endodontically treated dentin of anterior
teeth, using compressive strength tests.
Method: An in vitro experimental study. 60
single-rooted premolars extracted for orthodontic reasons were selected, of
which 40 met the inclusion criteria. The samples were standardized using a
precision cutter. Each sample underwent endodontic treatment and fillings. All
samples used various root anchorage materials and were therefore divided into 4
groups: G1(N:10) First group with polyethylene FRC fibers (Ribbond- TBR
Dental); G2(N:10) Second group with polyethylene FRC fibers (Construct - Kerr);
G3(N:10) Third group with quartz sFRC fibers (Quartz Splint- RTD); G4(N:10)
Fourth control group with glass fibers.
Each of the samples was unfilled according to the
manufacturer's instructions. These materials were then placed as root anchors
to subsequently create a stump. Once this was done, the samples were subjected
to artificial saliva for 168 hours. The samples were then subjected to ain an
Instron universal testing machine. The compression machine will exert a force
at a rate of 0.5 mm per minute.
