Objective: Was to identify which lubricant was the best separating medium for taking an impression for an endodontic post and to determine which could be completely and rapidly eliminated from the walls of the post space.
Materials and Methods: Sixty endodontically treated maxillary incisor teeth were used. They were divided into six groups, 10 teeth in each group. Each group used a different lubricant except group 6 which served as the control.
Results: All five experimental groups showed that the oil and grease of the lubricants were difficult to totally eliminate from the porous dentinal surface when washed with 2cc of 96% ethyl alcohol. A post space prepared with Gates Glidden drills results in many opened dentinal tubules. These were filled wi.. View More»
