Objectives. This study evaluated the effect of post surface treatment and of storage condition on the bond between resin composite cores (Clearfil Core) and posts of titanium alloy (Fysika), silica-zircon fiber reinforced epoxy resin (SiliciumPost), and zirconia (CosmoPost). Material and Methods. In the experimental groups, the coronal part of each post received sandblasting or tribochemical silicate-coating (CoJet) treatment. The coronal part of each post was embedded in a cylinder of resin composite core material with the aid of a fixation apparatus. After 15 min, the specimen was freed from the mold and stored in de-ionized water. The axial tensile strength (ATS) of posts was determined in a Universal Testing Machine when extracting the posts from the resin composite cores after: 1) 14 d water storage at 37 degrees C, 2) 14 d water storage at 37 degrees C followed by thermal cycling (6,000 cycles between 5 degrees C and 55 degrees C), or 3) 1 year water storage at 37 degrees C. The results were statistically analyzed by three-way factorial ANOVA and Newman-Keuls' multiple range test. Results. The ATS values were generally higher for Fysika posts and SiliciumPost posts than for CosmoPost posts. Surface treatment effectively improved the ATS values of Fysika posts and SiliciumPost posts, but not those of CosmoPost posts. Thermal cycling or long-term water storage had only minimal effect on the ATS values of the posts. Conclusion. Bonding of resin composite cores to the posts depended more on the material of the post and the surface treatment of posts than on the storage condition.
