Effect of Fiber Post-Resin Matrix Composition on Bond Strength of Post-Cement Interface

Figure 6

Failure mode type 1 demonstrating cohesive failure within the fiber post. (a) Top view of a section following bond strength testing demonstrating remnants of failed fiber post (1), resin cement (2), and PMMA block (3). (b) A lateral view of the corresponding fractured fiber post following bond strength testing. Pictures were taken at 35X magnifications under stereomicroscope.
