Background: The aim of this study was to assess the effect of the iRoot SP root canal sealer on the push‐out bond strength of fibre posts cemented with self‐adhesive resin cement. Methods: Forty‐eight extracted maxillary incisors were randomly divided into four groups according to the tested sealer (n = 12): group 1 – control (only gutta‐percha points, no sealer); group 2 – AH Plus Jet (resin‐based sealer); group 3 – Endofill (zinc oxide‐eugenol‐based sealer); and group 4 – iRoot SP (calcium silicate‐based sealer). All root canals were filled with gutta‐percha, and groups 2–4 additionally received one of the sealers. Fibre posts were cemented with the self‐adhesive resin cement Clearfil SA Cement. The specimens were sectioned in the coronal, middle and apical regions, producing three slices of 1 mm thickness. The push‐out test was performed. All data were submitted to ANOVA and Tukey tests (α = 0.05). Results: No statistically significant differences were found between the control group, AH Plus Jet and iRoot SP (p > 0.05). The Endofill sealer showed significantly lower bond strength compared to the other sealers and the control group (p < 0.05). Conclusions: The calcium silicate‐based sealer did not adversely affect the bond strength of the fibre posts cemented with self‐adhesive resin cement.
