For each composite and light unit, capital letters compare KHN among depths.<br />

Within <strong>the</strong> same line, values followed by <strong>the</strong> same letters are statistically similar (p > 0.05).<br />

Conclusions: For all composites, Ultra-Lume 5 resulted in<br />

higher KHN at 4 mm. Also, no differences in KHN were found<br />

up to 2 mm depth for each composite/light unit association.<br />

Influence <strong>of</strong> fiber post on degree <strong>of</strong> conversion <strong>of</strong> a luting<br />

cement<br />

Objectives: to assess <strong>the</strong> degree <strong>of</strong> conversion achieved<br />

at different levels <strong>of</strong> a simulated dowel space by a dualcure<br />

resin cement in combination with different fiber<br />

posts.<br />

<strong>Materials</strong> and methods: Similarly sized posts <strong>of</strong> different<br />

shape and composition were selected: GC Fiber Post<br />

(GC, GC); FibreKleer Serrated Post (Jeneric/Pentron, FK); DT<br />

Light SL (VDW, SL); RelyX Fiber Post (3 M ESPE, RX); Reforpost<br />

(Angelus, RE); DT Light Post Illusion (RTD, LPI); FRC Postec Plus<br />

(Ivoclar-Vivadent, FP); Radix (Dentsply, RA); Snowpost (Abrasive<br />

Technology, S); Dentin Post X (Komet, DP); Macrolock<br />

Illusion (RTD, MI); Composipost (RTD, C). A metal guide was<br />

used to position <strong>the</strong> post centered within a cylindrical metal<br />

mould simulating <strong>the</strong> dowel space and filled with Variolink<br />

II (Ivoclar-Vivadent). The cement was light-cured (Trilight, 3M<br />

ESPE), placing <strong>the</strong> light tip on <strong>the</strong> post coronal end for 20 s<br />

with <strong>the</strong> metal guide in position and for additional 40 s after<br />

removing <strong>the</strong> metal guide. After 24 h, degree <strong>of</strong> conversion <strong>of</strong><br />

<strong>the</strong> cement was assessed through Raman analysis at <strong>the</strong> coronal<br />

(C), middle (M), and apical (A) third <strong>of</strong> <strong>the</strong> simulated dowel<br />

space. Degree <strong>of</strong> conversion data were statistically analyzed<br />

(Two-Way ANOVA, Tukey test, p < 0.05).
