Excite f dsc adhesive

The process of etching, rinsing, and drying of canal space was similar as discussed in One-step group 1. Dual-cure bonding agent ExciTE F DSC adhesive (Ivoclar Vivadent, Schaan, Liechtenstein) was applied to the post space and coronal part of the tooth only with no application on fiber post. The remaining restorative protocols using Multicore for core buildup and cementation were the same as discussed in One-step group 1.

Using etchant, drying of canal space and rinsing was similar to groups discussed previously. Dual-cure bonding agent ExciTE F DSC adhesive (Ivoclar Vivadent, Schaan, Liechtenstein) was applied to the coronal part of the tooth and on the fiber post. A self-adhesive dual-cure resin cement (RelyX Unicem; 3M, ESPE, India) was used to fill up the post space up to the orifice. A fiber post under finger pressure was cemented in the canal space. Excess cement was removed and cured 20 s. Followed by dual-cure polymerizing resin restorative material (Filtek z350 XT, 3M, India) for core buildup of the rest of the coronal part. The buildup was cured for 40 s.
