Perforation repair should be done prior to completion of endodontic therapy which leads to contact of irrigants and cheating agents with repair material. Aim: To evaluate the effect of 17% EDTA and 10% Citric Acid on the bond strength of Biodentine, BioAggregate and Retro MTA. Materials and Methods: 120 dentine slices of 2-mm thickness were prepared with lumen 1.3mm. Divided into 3 groups, Biodentine, BioAggregate and Retro MTA were placed in the respective samples Each group divided into 4 subgroups (n=10) Control, saline,17% EDTA, 10% Citric Acid. Immersion was done for 30 minutes, followed by incubation for 48 hours. The samples were then tested for compressive strength through a push out test. Data were analyzed statistically using ANNOVA and Tukey’s post-hoc test. The significant level was present to P=0.05. Results: EDTA and Citric Acid negatively influenced the pushout bo.. Read More»
