The aim of the present study was to assess the degree of microleakage observed when using two different post-endodontic reconstruction systems; this was achieved assessing penetration of a dye along restorations performed with endodontic posts and dual-cure resin cements. For the present study, 30 extracted, single rooted premolars were used. Root canal treatment was performed on the teeth which were later stored in bi-distilled water at 37 °C. Teeth were randomly allotted to three groups, all groups were comprised of 10 teeth. In two groups, post cementation was performed using the systems RelyX Fiber Post (3M ESPE dental products) and Parapost (Coltene-Whaledent). Samples were subjected to thermo-cycling and later immersed in methylene blue for seven days at 36 °C. After this, samples were subjected to a diaphanization process and were then analyzed under a microscope; penetration in millimeters was thus obtained. Results revealed that teeth treated with Parapost system exhibited lesser microleakage. Control group experienced the greater amounts of microleakage. Statistical analysis conducted with Donett test showed statistically significant difference between Parapost and RelyX systems. ConclusionParapost reconstruction system (Coltene-Whaledent) with acid-etch technique exhibited lower microleakage values. Results were statistically significant when compared to those obtained with the RelyX reconstruction system (3M ESPE dental products).
