Popis: BACKGROUND Endodontically treated teeth usually can reveal an extensive loss of dental structure and require the use of intraradicular posts to provide adequate support and retention. Retention of the post depends on the surface treatment of the endodontic post itself and on the root canal dentin as well as on the type of resin-matrix cement. PURPOSE The main aim of this study was to conduct an integrative review on the influence of different surface treatment methods of glass fiber-reinfored resin composite (GFRC) posts on their push-out bond strength to resin-matrix cements in endodontically treated teeth rehabiliation. METHOD A literature search was performed on PubMed (via National Library of Medicine) regarding articles published within the last 10 years, using the following combination of search terms: "intracanal post" OR "endodontic post" OR "root canal post" OR "intraradicular post" OR "glass fiber" AND "resin cement" AND "adhesion" OR "bond strength" OR "shear bond strength" OR "push out". RESULTS Results from the selected studies recorded the highest push-out bond strength around 22.5 MPa) on GFRC posts to resin-matrix cements when the surfaces were pre-treated by grit-blasting with silicate followed by silane conditioning. However, high values of push-out bond strength (21.5 MPa) were also noticed for GFRC posts after etching with hydrogen peroxide followed by silance conditioning. Thus, the highest values of bond strength of endodontic posts to the resin-matrix cements were recorded when a combined physico-chemical approach was assessed. Non-treated surfaces showed the lowest bond strength values between 5 to and 9 MPa. Surface analyses of GFRC posts showed an increased roughness after grit-blasting or etching that promoted a mechanical interlocking of the adhesive and resin-matrix cements. CONCLUSION The combined treatment of glass fiber-reinforced resin composite post surfaces by physical and chemical methods can promote the increase in roughness and chemical functionalization of the surfaces prior to cementation., That results in a high mechanical interlocking of the resin-matrix cements and a stable retention of the teeth root intracanal posts. CLINICAL RELEVANCE Combining chemical and physical modification methods of surfaces can provide the most promising adhesion-enhancing pathways of GFRC posts to resin-matrix cements, that can decrease the risk of clinical failures by fracture and detachment of endodontic posts.
