Novel fast-setting calcium silicate cement with fluoride (CSC) has been developed for potential applications in tooth crown. The aim of this study was to test the diametral tensile strength (DTS) of different CSC compositions in humid condition on day1, 28, and 180. We tested 'bond CSC' with 3.5% fluoride and no radiocontrast, 'CSC' with 3.5% fluoride and 10% radiocontrast, 'ultrafast CSC' with 3.5% fluoride and 20% radiocontrast, 'high fluoride CSC' with 15% fluoride and 25% radiocontrast, Biodentine, and MTA. We filled the cements after mixing to cylindrical molds. Specimens were stored in >95% humidity. DTS was measured at each time point. CSC compositions had statistically higher DTS compared to MTA and Biodentine on day1. Bond CSC showed higher DTS versus all cements, except CSC, at all time points. DTS of all cements, except Biodentine, significantly increased in humid condition on day28 and day180 compared to day1.
