Darkening of tooth structure Metal > Probability of root fracture 2 appointments (cast) No adhesion
Carbon Fiber Posts Modulus of Elasticity similar to tooth structure Bonding capability
Aesthetic Resistant Adhesive
Adhesive cementation of posts requires adequate bonding between : ? Post - Cement ? Cement - Adhesive ? Adhesive - Dentin
Adhesive cementation of posts requires adequate bonding between : Post - Cement
FRCPs present surface irregularities that provide sites for micromechanical retention
Silanation does not seem to be clinically relevant for improved retention… Bitter et al., Effect of silanization on bond strengths of fiber posts to various resin cements. Quintessence Int 2007 38:121-128 Wrbas K-T et al., Effect of adhesive resin cements and post surface silanization on the bond strengths of adhesively inserted fiber posts. JOE 2007 33:840-843. Application of the adhesive appears to be more relevant...

Adhesive cementation of posts requires adequate bonding between : Adhesive - Dentin Adhesive - Cement
The bonding of the cement to the post is generally better than the bonding of the cement to dentin.
Easy to use and apply in the canal Ability to cure in the canal (apex) Compatible with self- dual-cure cements Bond stability over time

If adhesives are to be included.... Use 3-step etch and rinse or 2-step self-etch
Self-adhesive cements are an excellent option to lute posts! Do not require adhesive, improved properties over traditional cements and are dual- self-cured. No adhesive / no incompatibility
