Description
Summary:Aim The aim of this study was to compare the sealing abilities of Fermin and Canseal with the more popular temporary coronal filling materials, Cavit and Caviton. Methodology Standardized access cavities were prepared in 160 intact human permanent molar teeth. They were divided into five groups consisting of 32 samples. The teeth were restored using one of the temporary filling materials, namely: Fermin, Canseal at two powder to liquid ratios, Caviton and Cavit. Thermal cycling and/or load cycling were applied on the samples. Assessment of microleakage utilized methylene blue dye penetration. Grading of the microleakage pattern was from 1 to 3, with 3 providing the best seal. Results were analyzed using two‐way anova and by Fisher’s PLSD post hoc test (P
