Abstract
It is not always true that treating the surface of fiber-reinforced posts will make them bond better. This is especially true where the post meets the resin-based luting agent, which is not as strong as where the dentin meets the cement. Therefore, a study was done to evaluate different treatments on the post surface that affected the bond between a luting agent and a fiber post. Hence, 50 samples were used, with 10 in each group for the push-out bond strength test. The samples were further divided into subgroups called cervical, middle and apical third. It was found that the bond strength is increased by using chemicals and making the luting cements fit together better with the post surface.
