Statement of problem

A composite resin cement and matching self-etch adhesive was developed to simplify the dependable retention of lithium disilicate crowns. The efficacy of this new system is unknown.

Purpose

The purpose of this in vitro study was to determine whether lithium disilicate crowns cemented with a new composite resin and adhesive system and 2 other popular systems provide clinically acceptable crown retention after long-term aging with monthly thermocycling.

Material and methods

Extracted human molars were prepared with a flat occlusal surface, 20-degree convergence, and 4 mm axial length. The axio-occlusal line angle was slightly rounded. The preparation surface area was determined by optical scanning and the analysis of the standard tessellation language (STL) files. The specimens were distributed into 3 cement groups (n=12) to obtain equal mean surface areas. Lithium disilicate crowns (IPS e.max Press) were fabricated for each preparation, etched with 9.5% hydrofluoric acid for 15 seconds, and cleaned. Cement systems were RelyX Ultimate with Scotch Bond Universal (3M Dental Products); Monobond S, Multilink Automix with Multilink Primer A and B (Ivoclar Vivadent AG); and NX3 Nexus with OptiBond XTR (Kerr Corp). Each adhesive provided self-etching of the dentin. Before cementation, the prepared specimens were stored in 35°C water. A force of 196 N was used to cement the crowns, and the specimens were polymerized in a 35°C oven at 100% humidity. After 24 hours of storage at 100% humidity, the cemented crowns were thermocycled (5°C to 55°C) for 5000 cycles each month for 6 months. The crowns were removed axially at 0.5 mm/min. The removal force was recorded and the dislodgement stress calculated using the preparation surface area. The type of cement failure was recorded, and the data were analyzed by 1-way ANOVA and the chi-square test (α=.05) after the equality of variances had been assessed with the Levene test.

Results

The Levene test was nonsignificant (P=.936). The ANOVA revealed the mean removal stresses, and forces did not differ for RelyX Ultimate with Scotchbond Universal (3.9 MPa; 522 N) and Multilink Automix with Multilink Primer (3.7 MPa; 511 N); both differed significantly (P=.022) from the mean for NX3 Nexus with OptiBond XTR (2.9 MPa; 387 N). For all 3 cements, the modes of failure showed cement principally on the crown intaglio, and the chi-square analysis was nonsignificant (P=.601).

Conclusions

IPS e.max Press (lithium disilicate) crowns were well retained (2.9-3.9 MPa; 387-522 N) by the 3 cement-adhesive combinations after 6 months of aging with monthly thermocycling. These results can serve as a basis for cement selection for this type of crown because the values significantly exceeded those for zinc phosphate. Cements using their matched dentin bonding agent as the ceramic primer were as successful as cements with a separate silane coupling agent.  相似文献

Statement of problem

A recommended minimum thickness for monolithic zirconia restorations has not been reported. Assessing a proper thickness that has the necessary load-bearing capacity but also conserves dental hard tissues is essential.

Purpose

The purpose of this in vitro study was to evaluate the effect of thickness and surface modifications on monolithic zirconia after simulated masticatory stresses.

Material and methods

Monolithic zirconia disks (10 mm in diameter) were fabricated with 1.3 mm and 0.8 mm thicknesses. For each thickness, 21 disks were fabricated. The specimens of each group were further divided into 3 subgroups (n=7) according to the surface treatments applied: untreated (control), airborne-particle abrasion with 50-μm Al2O3 particles at a pressure of 400 kPa at 10 mm, and grinding with a diamond rotary instrument followed by polishing. The biaxial flexure strength was determined by using a piston-on-3-balls technique in a universal testing machine. Flexural loading was applied with a 1.4-mm diameter steel cylinder, centered on the disk, at a crosshead speed of 0.5 mm/min until fracture occurred. X-ray diffraction (XRD) and scanning electron microscopy (SEM) analyses were performed. The data were statistically analyzed with 2-way ANOVA, Tamhane T2, 1-way ANOVA, and Student t tests (α=.05).

Results

The 1.3-mm specimens had significantly higher flexural strength than the 0.8-mm specimens (P<.05). Airborne-particle abrasion significantly increased the flexural strength (P<.05). Grinding and polishing did not affect the flexural strength of the specimens (P>.05).

Conclusions

The mean flexural strength of 0.8-mm and 1.3-mm thick monolithic zirconia was greater than reported masticatory forces. Airborne-particle abrasion increased the flexural strength of monolithic zirconia. Grinding did not affect flexural strength if subsequently polished.  相似文献

Statement of problem

Yttria-stabilized tetragonal zirconia polycrystal has been used as a dental biomaterial for several decades because the fracture toughness and bend strength are increased by a stress-induced transformation-toughening mechanism. However, its esthetics are compromised by its poor translucency and grayish-white appearance.

Purpose

The purpose of the present systematic review was to assess information on the mechanical, chemical, and optical requirements of monolithic zirconia dental restorations.

Material and methods

The following databases (2010 to 2015) were electronically searched: ProQuest, EMBASE, SciFinder, MRS Online Proceedings Library, Medline, Compendex, and Journal of the American Ceramic Society. The search was limited to English-language publications, in vitro studies, experimental reports, and modeling studies.

Results

The data from 57 studies were considered in order to review the intrinsic and extrinsic characteristics of zirconia and their effects on the optical properties.

Conclusions

The materials and microstructural issues relevant to the esthetics and long-term stability of zirconia have been considered in terms of monolithic restorations, while there also are restorations specifically for esthetic applications. Although zirconia-toughened lithium silicate offers the best esthetic outcomes, transformation-toughened zirconia offers the best mechanical properties and long-term stability; cubic stabilized zirconia offers a potential compromise. The properties of these materials can be altered to some extent through the appropriate application of intrinsic (such as, annealing) and extrinsic (such as, shade-matching) parameters.  相似文献

Statement of problem

The prevalent use of computer-aided design and computer-aided manufacturing (CAD-CAM) for tooth-colored ceramic materials has led to several case reports and retrospective clinical studies of surveyed crowns used to support removable partial dentures. How the specific contour of a cingulum rest seat affects the fracture resistance of these CAD-CAM tooth-colored materials is unknown.

Purpose

The purpose of this in vitro study was to compare the fracture resistance of monolithic CAD-CAM tooth-colored mandibular canine–surveyed ceramic crowns with cingulum rest seats of different designs.

Material and methods

Five groups (n=24/group) of CAD-CAM tooth-colored crowns were milled from the same standard tessellation language (STL) file: group EM, lithium disilicate–based material (IPS e.max CAD CEREC blocks); group SM, zirconia-based material (NexxZr T); group LP, zirconia-based material (Lava Plus High Translucency); group ZC, zirconia-based material (ZirCAD LT); and group MZ, composite resin (MZ100 CEREC blocks), used as a control. Crowns from each group were divided into 2 subgroups representing 2 shapes of cingulum rest seat design: round design subgroup (n=12) with 0.5-mm radius of curvature and sharp design subgroup (n=12) with 0.25-mm radius of curvature for the rest seat preparation. The crowns were cemented with resin cement to a composite resin die on a steel nut. After 24 hours of storage in water at 37°C, the specimens were statically loaded to fracture with a custom metal retainer on top of the cingulum rest seat by using a universal testing machine at a crosshead speed of 1.5 mm/min. Two-way ANOVA and the Tukey honestly significant difference tests were used to control the familywise error rate (α=.05). Representative specimens were examined using an optical stereomicroscope at ×10 magnification and a scanning electron microscope to determine the failure patterns and fracture mechanism.

Results

The results of the ANOVA test indicated statistically significant differences by materials and rest seat designs (P<.001). The mean ±standard deviation maximal load capacity was 773.5 ±255.0 N for group MZ, 1124.9 ±283.9 N for group EM, 2784.1 ±400.5 N for group SM, 2526.9 ±547.1 N for group LP, and 3200.8 ±416.8 N for group ZC. The round design subgroups had an approximately 30% higher mean failure load than the sharp design subgroups for all surveyed crowns.

Conclusions

The present in vitro study demonstrated that zirconia-based groups fractured at twice the load as the lithium disilicate group. Of the 3 zirconia-based groups, group ZirCAD had a statistically greater fracture resistance than the other groups. Designing the cingulum rest seat to have a broad round shape provides a statistically significant higher fracture resistance than a sharp-shape design (P<.05).  相似文献

Statement of problem

The long-term color stability of precolored monolithic zirconia has not been thoroughly investigated.

Purpose

The purpose of this in vitro study was to evaluate the effect of hydrothermal aging on the optical properties, phase transformation, and surface topography of precolored monolithic zirconia ceramics.

Material and methods

Precolored monolithic zirconia specimens (17.0×17.0×1.5 mm, n=50) and lithium disilicate glass-ceramic specimens (16.0×16.0×1.5 mm, n=50) were artificially aged in an autoclave at 134°C under 0.2 MPa for 0, 1, 3, 5, or 10 hours (n=10). CIELab color parameters were obtained from spectral measurements. The translucency parameter (TP) and CIEDE2000 color differences (ΔE00) were calculated. The microstructural and surface properties were analyzed by X-ray diffraction (XRD), atomic force microscope (AFM), and scanning electron microscope (SEM). Data were analyzed with 2-way ANOVA and pairwise comparison (α=.05).

Results

Significant interactions were found between aging time and ceramic material on L*, a*, b*, and TP (P<.001) as follows: b* partial eta squared [ηp2]=0.689; L* ηp2=0.186; a* ηp2=0.176; and TP ηp2=0.137. The b* values significantly decreased after aging for zirconia (P<.001), whereas TP increased after aging for zirconia (P<.014) except at 10 hours (P=.389) and for lithium disilicate (P<.001). The ΔE00 values relative to baseline ranged from 2.03 to 2.52 for aged zirconia and from 0.07 to 0.23 for aged lithium disilicate. XRD analysis revealed that hydrothermal aging promoted an increase in m-phase contents. AFM and SEM demonstrated surface alterations after aging.

Conclusions

Optical properties and microstructures of precolored monolithic zirconia ceramics were affected by hydrothermal aging, and translucency increased slightly with aging time.  相似文献

Statement of problem

The effects of the application of aqueous coloring liquids on the mechanical properties of zirconia have not yet been investigated.

Purpose

The purpose of this in vitro study was to evaluate the effects of 3 different coloring techniques and the number of coloring liquid applications on the hardness of zirconia.

Material and methods

Eighty specimens were divided into 8 groups (n=10); nonshaded zirconia, preshaded zirconia, acid-based coloring liquid zirconia, and aqueous coloring liquid zirconia (1, 3, 6). Vickers hardness was measured. Data were analyzed via 1-way and 2-way ANOVAs. Multiple comparisons were performed using a Scheffé test (α=.05).

Results

Statistically significant differences in hardness were found between acid-based coloring liquid zirconia and aqueous coloring liquid zirconia (P<.001). Increasing the number of coloring liquid applications decreased the hardness value of acid-based coloring liquid zirconia (P<.001) but had no effect on the hardness of aqueous coloring liquid zirconia (P>.05).

Conclusions

Within the limitations of this study, the hardness of zirconia was influenced to differing degrees depending on coloring technique. The number of coloring liquid applications affected the hardness of zirconia colored with the acid-based coloring liquid but not the hardness of zirconia colored with the aqueous coloring liquid.  相似文献

Factitious disease is often manifested in the head and neck region. It is only when the oral and maxillofacial surgeon is aware of the existence of this syndrome and has been unable to correlate a patient's history and signs and symptoms with known diseases that factitious illness may be suspected as the diagnosis. Three case histories that help to demonstrate the variety of ruses used by patients to feign illness are presented. The expertise of a psychiatrist will often help to substantiate the diagnosis, but in many instances the main aspects of treatment will remain in the hands of the original clinician. It is important for clinicians to realize that patients with chronic factitious illness are extremely manipulative and unwilling to admit to their fabrications.  相似文献

Statement of problem

The demand for ceramic restorations has increased over the past years, and now various machinable materials can be used for chairside computer-aided design and computer aided manufacturing (CAD-CAM) systems. Limited studies of these new materials make it difficult to evaluate their mechanical performance, advantages, and limitations.

Purpose

The purpose of this in vitro study was to investigate the fracture resistance of CAD-CAM monolithic ceramic and veneered zirconia molar crowns after thermomechanical aging.

Material and methods

A mandibular first molar tooth was prepared, and 12 different experimental groups were generated (n=10). An aging procedure was performed by subjecting the specimens to 12×105 mechanical cycles and 5000 thermocycles. Survival analysis was performed according to the thermomechanical aging. The fracture resistance (load at fracture) of all specimens was evaluated with 1-way analysis of variance after the means had been compared using the Tukey honest significant difference test and Weibull distributions of the experimental groups (α=.05).

Results

According to the results, the differences between the fracture resistance of the groups were found to be significant. Restorations in the dual network ceramic crown group fractured catastrophically during thermomechanical aging. In all groups, the highest value was found for monolithic zirconia, followed by monolithic lithium disilicate crowns (P<.05). Both of the monolithic crowns made of lithium disilicate derivates and zirconia crowns veneered with lithium disilicate ceramic showed no differences from each other (P>.05). The Weibull modulus (m) ranged from 4.22 to 8.58, and conventionally veneered and overpressed zirconia showed the lowest Weibull modulus values among the tested groups, indicating greater variation of the data.

Conclusions

The highest fracture resistance was observed for yttria-stabilized zirconia crowns, followed by lithium disilicate derivates. Veneered zirconia restorations generally showed lower resistance than these ceramics. The dual network ceramic crowns fractured during thermomechanical aging.  相似文献

Statement of problem

Zirconia is a widely used restorative material. However, phase transformation on clinical application of zirconia has not yet been studied.

Purpose

The purpose of this study was to evaluate the wear, surface roughness, and aging associated with polished translucent zirconia in both in vitro and clinical experiments.

Material and methods

In vitro experiments were performed with Rainbow and Katana zirconia blocks and natural tooth enamel as the control. They were subjected to 100 000 loading cycles with a maxillary premolar antagonist. All specimens were analyzed for wear, and the zirconia specimens were evaluated for surface roughness and monoclinic phase (m-phase) transformation by X-ray diffractometry before and after cyclic loading. The clinical study included participants who required single-crown implant-supported restorations replacing the first or second molar. The participants received Rainbow or Katana zirconia prostheses (n=15, each). For wear analysis, impressions of each prosthesis, antagonist, and adjacent tooth were made at 1 week and 6 months after crown delivery. The occlusal relationship of the crowns in maximum intercuspation was evaluated by using the T-Scan 8 occlusal diagnostic system. The degree of transformation of zirconia to the m-phase was measured by using X-ray diffractometry of the crowns after 6 months of use.

Results

Zirconia induced significantly greater enamel wear than the natural tooth control. Katana specimens exhibited significantly greater wear and surface roughness than the Rainbow specimens. The degrees of antagonistic wear and zirconia phase transformation in the clinical experiment were significantly greater than those in the in vitro experiment. The Katana groups showed significantly higher m-phase levels than the Rainbow groups.

Conclusions

Phase transformation of zirconia occurs within 6 months of clinical use, and the wear and degrees of phase transformation varied according to the zirconia product used.  相似文献

Statement of problem

The accuracy of a full digital workflow using an Atlantis abutment and a milled zirconia crown; a full digital workflow with a 3Shape split-file workflow using a zirconia abutment and crown; and an interrupted digital workflow using an Atlantis abutment and a milled zirconia crown is unclear.

Purpose

The purpose of this in vitro study was to compare 2 full digital workflows relative to an interrupted workflow for restoring an implant with a custom abutment and crown. The secondary purpose of this study was to validate a digital means of measuring internal fit and marginal discrepancy using engineering software programs.

Material and methods

Three workflows were evaluated. The first group, interrupted digital Atlantis (IDA) workflow, included a customized Atlantis abutment that was designed, received, and then rescanned for the definitive crown design. The second group, full digital Atlantis (FDA) workflow, included a customized Atlantis abutment and its corresponding standard tessellation language (STL) file, the Atlantis Core File, which was immediately imported into design software and used for crown design and milling. The third group, full digital split-file (FDSF) workflow, used 3Shape's full digital workflow for abutment and crown design called the split-file workflow, in which the crown and abutment were designed and milled simultaneously. All restorations were evaluated with standardized measurements using a scanning electron microscope (SEM) for 2D measurements, followed by standardized measurements using Geomagic Control, an engineering software program, which facilitated 3D evaluations of the specimens.

Results

The 2 Atlantis workflows, IDA and FDA, had statistically smaller marginal openings (P=.002) than the FDSF when measured using 2D SEM. The FDA had a statistically smaller 2D SEM marginal gap than the other 2 groups, IDA (P=.002) and FDSF (P=.002). The FDA had a statistically smaller 3D Geomagic marginal gap than the other 2 groups, IDA (P=.004) and FDSF (P=.006). The FDSF had a statistically smaller 3D Geomagic internal fit than the other 2 groups, FDA and IDA (both P=.006).

Conclusions

All 3 workflows evaluated in this study showed clinically acceptable results in terms of mean marginal gap below 120 μm. The SEM evaluation of mean marginal opening revealed that IDA and FDA mean marginal openings were statistically smaller than the FDSF mean marginal opening. SEM and Geomagic measurements revealed that the FDA mean marginal gap was significantly smaller than IDA and FDSF mean marginal gaps. Geomagic evaluation of mean internal fit revealed that the FDSF was significantly smaller than IDA and FDA. The use of Geomagic to measure and evaluate mean marginal gap and mean internal fit as defined in this study proved to be an acceptable form of measurement with statistical validation.  相似文献

Statement of problem

With the development of new computer-aided design and computer-aided manufacturing (CAD-CAM) restorative dental materials, limited data regarding their survival rate and fracture strength are available when they are used as occlusal veneers. Therefore, these materials should be evaluated under conditions similar to those of the oral environment before being recommended for clinical use.

Purpose

To evaluate the influence of thermomechanical fatigue loading on the fracture strength of minimally invasive occlusal veneer restorations fabricated from different CAD-CAM materials and bonded to human maxillary premolars using self-etchnig bonding technique.

Material and methods

Sixty-four CAD-CAM occlusal veneer restorations were fabricated from group LD (lithium disilicate [e.max CAD]), LS (zirconia-reinforced lithium silicate [Vita Suprinity]), PI (polymer-infiltrated ceramic [Vita Enamic]), and PM (polymethylmethacrylate [Telio CAD]). The occlusal veneers were luted to enamel (n=16) using a self-etching primer (Multilink Primer A/B) and a luting composite resin (Multilink Automix). Half of the specimens of each group (n=8) were randomly selected and subjected to thermomechanical fatigue loading in a masticatory simulator (1.2 million cycles at 98 N with 5°C-55°C thermocycling). All specimens were quasistatically loaded until fracture. The statistical analysis was made using the Kruskal-Wallis and Mann-Whitney U tests (α=.05).

Results

According to the Kaplan-Meier analysis after the thermomechanical fatigue of the 4 groups, the cumulative survival rate was as follows: group LD, 50% group LS, 62.5% group PI, 37.5%; and group PM, 50%. Although some of the surviving specimens exhibited microcracking, their integrity or bonding to teeth was not affected. Thermomechanical fatigue significantly reduced the fracture strength of group PI (P=.047) and group PM (P=.025). Without thermomechanical fatigue, group PM showed significantly higher fracture strength than group LS (P=.015).

Conclusions

In general, thermomechanical fatigue decreased the survival rate and fracture strength in all test groups.  相似文献

Psychologic changes in orthognathic surgery patients: a 24-month follow up   总被引:1,自引:0,他引:1  
This report describes the final, two-year follow up in a longitudinal study of 74 patients who underwent orthognathic surgery for developmental deformities. Data for all six measurement periods were available for 46 patients. Complaints of functional problems decreased significantly from before surgery to 24 months after, although 49% of the patients continued to report lip paresthesia. The incidence of postsurgical problems had no effect on the satisfaction expressed with surgical outcomes, which remained high throughout the postoperative course. Self-esteem appeared to rise in anticipation of surgery, only to decline significantly at nine months after surgery, to rise again by 24 months (but not as high as before surgery). In some components, self-esteem remained significantly lower after surgery than before. Body image also showed a decline at nine months, although overall body image and profile image 20-26 months after surgery were significantly more positive than before surgery. These results point to the importance of continued contact with orthognathic surgery patients by surgeons and orthodontists for at least two years after surgery, particular attention being paid to the intermediate stages (six to 12 months) after surgery. This period of psychologic upheaval appears to be related to the patient's desire to complete postsurgical orthodontics.  相似文献

Statement of problem

Different surface finishing procedures can be applied to monolithic restorations. However, information is limited regarding the long-term performance of these procedures.

Purpose

The purpose of this in vitro study was to evaluate the effect of aging on the translucency and color stability of monolithic ceramics with different surface finishing procedures.

Material and methods

Disk-shaped (14×1.5 mm) specimens of monolithic zirconia (Zirkonzahn Prettau [ZZ]) and lithium disilicate glass-ceramic (IPS e.max Press [IPS]) were fabricated. The specimens were divided into 3 subgroups according to the surface treatments (n=9, G: glazing, R: rubber polishing system, and P: rubber polishing system followed by polishing paste). Color measurements were made by using a spectrophotometer before and after an ultraviolet aging process. L*, a*, and b* parameters were recorded. ΔE and translucency parameter (TP) values were calculated. One specimen from each subgroup was examined by scanning electron microscopy (×30?000). The data were statistically analyzed using the Mann-Whitney U, Kruskal-Wallis, and post hoc tests (α=.05).

Results

ΔE values of group ZZ (5.03) exceeded the clinically acceptable level (3.5); however, the color change was not clinically perceptible for IPS (0.41). The ΔE value of the subgroup P was found to be higher than that of the others for ZZ (P<.001). The ΔE value was not affected by the surface treatment for IPS. Group IPS showed significantly higher translucency than the ZZ group (P<.001). TP values were not affected by the surface treatment in either material and decreased after aging. However, changes in the TP values were too slight to be clinically perceptible.

Conclusions

Lithium disilicate ceramic was found to be more esthetic than monolithic zirconia ceramic in terms of color stability and translucency.  相似文献

Statement of problem

The best procedure for cementing a restoration to zirconia implants has not yet been established.

Purpose

The purpose of this in vitro study was to measure the retention of polymer-infiltrated ceramic crowns to zirconia 1-piece implants using a wide range of cements. The effect of ceramic primer treatment on the retention force was also recorded. The retention results were correlated with the shear bond strength of the cement to zirconia and the indirect tensile strength of the cements to better understand the retention mechanism.

Material and methods

The retention test was performed using 100 polymer-infiltrated ceramic crowns (Vita Enamic) and zirconia implants (ceramic.implant CI) The crowns were cemented with either interim cement (Harvard Implant semipermanent, Temp Bond), glass-ionomer cement (Ketac Cem), self-adhesive cement (Perma Cem 2.0, RelyX Unicem Automix 2, Panavia SA), or adhesive cement (Multilink Implant, Multilink Automix, Vita Adiva F-Cem, RelyX Ultimate, Panavia F 2.0, Panavia V5 or Panavia 21) (n=5). Additionally ceramic primer was applied on the intaglio crown surface and implant abutment before cementation for all adhesive cements (Multilink Implant, Multilink Automix: Monobond plus; RelyX Ultimate Scotchbond Universal; Vita Adiva F-Cem: Vita Adiva Zr-Prime; Panavia F2.0, Panavia V5: Clearfil Ceramic Primer) and 1 self-adhesive cement containing 10-methacryloyloxydecyl dihydrogen phosphate (MDP) (Panavia SA: Clearfil Ceramic Primer). Crown debond fracture patterns were recorded. Shear bond strength was determined for the respective cement groups to polished zirconia (n=6). The diametral tensile strength of the cements was measured (n=10). Statistical analysis was performed using 1-way or 2-way analysis of variance followed by the Fisher LSD test (α=.05) within each test parameter.

Results

Adhesive and self-adhesive resin cements had shear bond strength values of 0.0 to 5.3 MPa and revealed similar retention forces. Cements containing MDP demonstrated shear bond strength values above 5.3 MPa and displayed increased retention. The highest retention values were recorded for Panavia F 2.0 (318 ±28 N) and Panavia 21 (605 ±82 N). All other adhesive and self-adhesive resin cements attained retention values between 222 ±16 N (Multilink Automix) and 270 ±26 N (Panavia SA), which were significantly higher (P<.05) than glass-ionomer (Ketac Cem: 196 ±34 N) or interim cement (Harvard Implant semipermanent: 43 ±6 N, Temp Bond: 127 ±13 N). Application of manufacturer-specific ceramic primer increased crown retention significantly only for Panavia SA.

Conclusions

Products containing MDP provided a high chemical bond to zirconia. Self-adhesive and adhesive resin cements with low chemical bonding capabilities to zirconia provided retention force values within a small range (220 to 290 N).  相似文献

PurposeTo test three potential prosthetic material options for zirconia implants in regard to their mechanical properties, loading and retention capacity as well as to record abrasion after chewing simulation followed by thermocyclic aging.MethodsMolar crowns (n = 96) of three different computer-aided design/computer-aided manufacturing (CAD/CAM) materials were produced and cemented on zirconia implants (ceramic.implant, Vita) with a diameter of 4.5 mm. Monolithic zirconia (Vita YZ [YZ] with RelyX Unicem 2 Automix [RUN], polymer-infiltrated ceramic (Vita Enamic [VE]) with Vita Adiva F-Cem [VAF] and acrylate polymer (CAD Temp [CT]) with RelyX Ultimate [RUL]. Fracture load and retentive force of the crowns were measured after 24 h water storage at 37 °C and after a chewing simulation followed by thermocyclic aging. Abrasion was recorded by matching stereolithography-data of the crowns obtained before and after chewing simulation. Additionally, the mechanical properties and bonding capabilities of the crown and cement materials were assessed.ResultsFracture load values were significantly highest for YZ > VE = CT. Retention force values did not differ significantly between the materials. The aging procedure did not affect the fracture load values nor the retention force significantly. Abrasion depth of the crowns was lowest for YZ followed by VE and CT. On unpolished crowns, abrasion of YZ and VE tended to be higher than on polished specimens.ConclusionsBased on the obtained in-vitro results, all tested materials can be recommended for the use on zirconia implants, although CT is only approved for temporary crowns. The loading and retention capacity of the materials were not significantly affected by aging.  相似文献

Statement of problem

The effect of thermal aging on the color stability of monolithic zirconia has not been thoroughly investigated.

Purpose

The purpose of this in vitro study was to evaluate the color stability before and after thermocycling of monolithic zirconia specimens, which were either preshaded or characterized in the laboratory through the assessment of color parameters L*, a*, and b*.

Material and methods

A total of 80 specimens (10×10×15 mm) were prepared from zirconia disks (BruxZir) and divided into 2 groups. The first group consisted of preshaded specimens from disks 100, 200, 300, and 400, and the second group consisted of white specimens characterized before the sintering stage with coloring liquids in shades A2, B2, C2, and D2. Ten specimens of each shade were used. A double-beam ultraviolet-visible light recording spectrophotometer was used to assess the color parameters L*, a*, and b* before and after thermocycling. The color difference ΔE was calculated based on ΔΕ=[(ΔL*)2+(Δa*)2+(Δb*)2]½. The reliability of the examiner was investigated by MedCalc v12.5 software, and the tests of normality, homogeneity of variances, and 1-way ANOVA statistical analysis of variance were performed by IBM Statistics SPSS v20.0 software (α=.05).

Results

No statistically significant ΔΕ (P>.05) was observed among the different groups after thermocycling. All ΔΕ values were below the limit of the 3.7 that an untrained observer can perceive. Only for the specimens in shades 200 and 400 was ΔΕ above 1, revealing a visible color difference, which, however, was still clinically acceptable. The L*, a*, and b* values for both liquid-shaded and preshaded zirconia specimens were not significantly affected by thermocycling. A higher color stability for laboratory-characterized compared with preshaded monolithic zirconia was observed irrespective of the color shade.

Conclusions

Within the limitations of this in vitro study, monolithic zirconia specimens of any shade, either preshaded or characterized in the laboratory, can be considered as color-stable materials after thermocycling.  相似文献
