RESUMO
Aim: This study evaluated the effect of four intracanal medications commonly used in regenerative endodontic procedures on the bond strength of four calcium silicate-based materials, in which two are powder-to-liquid products (MTA and MTA-HP) and the other are ready-to-use materials (EndoSequence Root Repair Material Fast Set Putty [ERRM] and Bioceramic Repair [BIO-C Repair]). Methods: Ten bovine central incisors were selected and 4 slices (1.0 ± 0.1 mm) were prepared from each root. Next, four 0.8-mm wide holes were drilled in each slice and specimens were filled with one of the following intracanal medications: triple antibiotic paste, double antibiotic paste, calcium hydroxide with distilled water, and calcium hydroxide with 2% chlorhexidine gel. After 21 days, holes were filled with one of the materials: MTA, MTA-HP, ERRM, or BIO-C Repair. After storage, push-out test and failure analysis were performed. Data were submitted to analysis of variance in a 4 × 4 factorial scheme. Tukey's test was used for multiple comparisons. Results: The use of different interappointment dressings did not influence the results (P > 0.05). ERRM and BIO-C Repair presented significantly higher values than MTA and MTA-HP (P < 0.0001). Specimens showed a 100% occurrence of adhesive failures. Conclusion: The use of different intracanal medications presented similar impact on bond strength of calcium silicate-based materials. Ready-to-use ERRM and BIO-C Repair materials presented the best push-out values to dentine, whereas powder-to-liquid MTA and MTA-HP cements showed the lowest results.
