Microtensile bond strength of a resin cement to glass infiltrated zirconia-reinforced ceramic: the effect of surface conditioning.

OBJECTIVES: This study evaluated the effect of three surface conditioning methods on the microtensile bond strength of resin cement to a glass-infiltrated zirconia-reinforced alumina-based core ceramic. METHODS: Thirty blocks (5 x 5 x 4 mm) of In-Ceram Zirconia ceramics (In-Ceram Zirconia-INC-ZR, VITA) were fabricated according to the manufacturer's instructions and duplicated in resin composite. The specimens were polished and assigned to one of the following three treatment conditions (n=10): (1) Airborne particle abrasion with 110 microm Al(2)O(3) particles + silanization, (2) Silica coating with 110 microm SiO(x) particles (Rocatec Pre and Plus, 3M ESPE) + silanization, (3) Silica coating with 30 microm SiO(x) particles (CoJet, 3M ESPE) + silanization. The ceramic-composite blocks were cemented with the resin cement (Panavia F) and stored at 37 degrees C in distilled water for 7 days prior to bond tests. The blocks were cut under coolant water to produce bar specimens with a bonding area of approximately 0.6mm(2). The bond strength tests were performed in a universal testing machine (cross-head speed: 1mm/min). The mean bond strengths of the specimens of each block were statistically analyzed using ANOVA and Tukey's test (alpha相似文献   

Microtensile bond strength between a quartz fiber post and a resin cement: effect of post surface conditioning

PURPOSE: To test the bond strength between a quartz-fiber-reinforced composite post (FRC) and a resin cement. The null hypothesis was that the bond strength can be increased by using a chairside tribochemical silica-coating system. MATERIALS AND METHODS: Thirty quartz-FRCs (Light-Post) were divided into 3 groups according to the post surface treatment: G1) Conditioning with 32% phosphoric acid (1 min), applying a silane coupling agent; G2) etching with 10% hydrofluoric acid (1 min), silane application; G3) chairside tribochemical silica coating method (CoJet System): air abrasion with 30-microm SiOx-modified Al2O3 particles, silane application. Thereafter, the posts were cemented into a cylinder (5 mm diameter, 15 mm height) with a resin cement (Duo-Link). After cementation, the specimens were stored in distilled water (37 degrees C/24 h) and sectioned along the x and y axes with a diamond wheel under cooling (Lab-cut 1010) to create nontrimmed bar specimens. Each specimen was attached with cyanoacrylate to an apparatus adapted for the microtensile test. Microtensile testing was conducted on a universal testing machine (1 mm/min). The data obtained were submitted to the one-way ANOVA and Tukey test (alpha = 0.05). RESULTS: A significant influence of the conditioning methods was observed (p < 0.0001). The bond strength of G3 (15.14 +/- 3.3) was significantly higher than the bond strengths of G1 (6.9 +/- 2.3) and G2 (12.60 +/- 2.8) (p = 0.000106 and p = 0.002631, respectively). Notwithstanding the groups, all the tested specimens showed adhesive failure between the resin cement and FRC. CONCLUSION: The chairside tribochemical system yielded the highest bond strength between resin cement and quartz-fiber post. The null hypothesis was accepted (p < 0.0001).     

Bond strength of a resin cement to dentin using the resin coating technique

The aim of this study was to evaluate the bond strength of a resin cement to dentin using different adhesive systems (AS) in the presence or absence of a low-viscosity composite liner (Protect Liner F - PLF) applied over the bonded dentin. The adhesive systems selected were: AdheSE/Vivadent (AD); Clearfil Protect Bond/Kuraray (CP); One-Up Bond F/Tokuyama (OU); Single Bond/3M ESPE (SB); Tyrian SPE/One-Step Plus/Bisco (TY); Xeno III/Dentsply (XE) and Unifil Bond/GC (UN). After removing the labial and lingual enamel surfaces of bovine incisors, dentin fragments were prepared and randomly divided into 15 groups (n = 8). The dentin substrates were bonded with the AS and the PLF was applied or not before application of the resin cement (Panavia F, Kuraray). In the control group, the ED Primer (ED) and the resin cement without PLF were used. The AS, PLF and resin cement tested were used according to the manufacturers' instructions, and all treated dentin surfaces were temporized. After water storage for one week, three cylinders of resin cement were applied to each bonded dentin surface, using tygon tubing molds. The specimens were subjected to micro-shear testing and the data were statistically analyzed (two-way ANOVA, Tukey and Dunnett tests, p < 0.05). The observed mean shear bond strengths in MPa were: ED: 20.2 +/- 2.3; AD: 30.3 +/- 6.5; CP: 25.3 +/- 4.4; OU: 28.3 +/- 6.6; SB: 25.6 +/- 6.9; TY: 24.5 +/- 2.5; XE: 17.3 +/- 3.4; UN: 28.4 +/- 6.2; AD+PLF: 32.8 +/- 4.1; CP+PLF: 29.9 +/- 3.9; OU+PLF: 34.1 +/- 4.1; SB+PLF: 29.5 +/- 8.2; TY+PLF: 29.2 +/- 3.9; XE+PLF: 32.8 +/- 6.7; UN+PLF: 32.2 +/- 4.5. The bond strength of the resin cement to dentin using the tested AS was increased when the low-viscosity composite liner was applied.     

Effect of surface treatments on the bond strength of a zirconia-reinforced ceramic to composite resin

The objective of this study was to evaluate the tensile (sigma(t)) and shear bond strength (sigma(s)) of a glass-infiltrated alumina-based zirconia-reinforced ceramic (IZ--Vita In-Ceram Zirconia) to a composite resin, testing the hypothesis that silica coating (SC--Cojet, 3M-Espe) produces higher bond strength values than other ceramic surface treatments. Specimens were fabricated and tested according to the manufacturers' instructions, and to ISO6872 and ISO11405 specifications. Sixty IZ disk specimens were polished through 1 microm and divided into 3 groups (n = 20) according to the following surface treatments: HF - 9.5% hydrofluoric acid (Ultradent) for 1 min; SB--sandblasting with 25-microm aluminum oxide particles for 10 s; SC--silica coating for 10 s. Silane (3M-Espe), adhesive (Single Bond, 3M-Espe) and a composite resin cylinder (Z100, 3M-Espe) were applied and polymerized to the treated bonding area (3.5 mm in diameter). Ten specimens from each group (n = 10) were tested for sigma(t) and ten specimens were tested for sigma(s), using a universal testing machine (EMIC DL 2000) at a crosshead speed of 1 mm/min. The data were statistically analyzed by ANOVA and Tukey tests (alpha = 0.05). The mean and standard deviation values (MPa) and statistical groupings for sigma(t) were: HF - 3.5 +/- 1.0a; SB - 7.6 +/-1.2b; and SC - 10.4+/-1.8c. For sigma(s), the values were: HF - 10.4 +/- 3.1A; SB - 13.9+/- 3.1B; and SC - 21.6 +/- 1.7C (p < 0.05). The groups presented the same statistical ranking of mean values for both test methods. The SC-treated IZ ceramic presented a significant increase in mean bond strength values for both test methods, confirming the study hypothesis.     

Bond strength of two resin cements to titanium after different surface conditioning methods

This study evaluated the bond strength of two resin cements (Panavia F and Super Bond) to titanium after various surface conditioning techniques. The cements were applied using polyethylene tubes. After thermocycling, the specimens were tested in a universal testing machine for shear bond strength. Panavia F demonstrated significantly higher bond strength values than Super Bond. Of the conditioning techniques, Al2O3+Silane+Sinfony and Silano Pen+AP demonstrated significantly lower bond strength values than Al2O3+Cesead II Opaque Primer and 110 μm SiOx+Silane. The combination of Panavia and 110 μm SiOx+Silane, Al2O3+AP, or Al2O3+Cesead II, and the combination of Super Bond and 110 μm SiOx+Silane or Al2O3+Cesead II, can be recommended for improving the bond strength of resin cement to titanium.     

Effect of surface conditioning methods on the bond strength of luting cement to ceramics

OBJECTIVES: This study evaluated the effect of three different surface conditioning methods on the bond strength of a Bis-GMA based luting cement to six commercial dental ceramics. METHODS: Six disc shaped ceramic specimens (glass ceramics, glass infiltrated alumina, glass infiltrated zirconium dioxide reinforced alumina) were used for each test group yielding a total number of 216 specimens. The specimens in each group were randomly assigned to one of the each following treatment conditions: (1) hydrofluoric acid etching, (2) airborne particle abrasion, (3) tribochemical silica coating. The resin composite luting cement was bonded to the conditioned and silanized ceramics using polyethylene molds. All specimens were tested at dry and thermocycled (6.000, 5-55 degrees C, 30 s) conditions. The shear bond strength of luting cement to ceramics was measured in a universal testing machine (1 mm/min). RESULTS: In dry conditions, acid etched glass ceramics exhibited significantly higher results (26.4-29.4 MPa) than those of glass infiltrated alumina ceramics (5.3-18.1 MPa) or zirconium dioxide (8.1 MPa) (ANOVA, P<0.001). Silica coating with silanization increased the bond strength significantly for high-alumina ceramics (8.5-21.8 MPa) and glass infiltrated zirconium dioxide ceramic (17.4 MPa) compared to that of airborne particle abrasion (ANOVA, P<0.001). Thermocycling decreased the bond strengths significantly after all of the conditioning methods tested. SIGNIFICANCE: Bond strengths of the luting cement tested on the dental ceramics following surface conditioning methods varied in accordance with the ceramic types. Hydrofluoric acid gel was effective mostly on the ceramics having glassy matrix in their structures. Roughening the ceramic surfaces with air particle abrasion provided higher bond strengths for high-alumina ceramics and the values increased more significantly after silica coating/silanization.     

Bond strength of a composite resin to an adhesive luting cement

This study evaluated the influence of surface treatment on the shear bond strength of a composite resin (CR), previously submitted to the application of a temporary cement (TC), to an adhesive luting cement. Eight-four CR cylinders (5 mm diameter and 3 mm high) were fabricated and embedded in acrylic resin. The sets were divided into 6 groups (G1 to G6) (n=12). Groups 2 to 6 received a coat of TC. After 24 h, TC was removed and the CR surfaces received the following treatments: G2: ethanol; G3: rotary brush and pumice; G4: air-abrasion; G5: air-abrasion and adhesive system; G6: air-abrasion, acid etching and adhesive system. G1 (control) did not receive TC or any surface treatment. The sets were adapted to a matrix and received an increment of an adhesive luting cement. The specimens were subjected to the shear bond strength test. ANOVA and Tukey's tests showed that G3 (8.53 MPa) and G4 (8.63 MPa) differed significantly (p=0.001) from G1 (13.34 MPa). The highest mean shear bond strength values were found in G5 (14.78 MPa) and G6 (15.86 MPa). Air-abrasion of CR surface associated with an adhesive system provided an effective bond of the CR to the adhesive luting cement, regardless the pre-treatment with the phosphoric acid.     

Bond strength of glass ionomer cement to composite resin.

This report assesses the effect of acid etching, acid etching plus bonding adhesive and bonding adhesive only, on the bond strength of one light curing and two chemical curing glass ionomer cements (GICs) to composite resin. Bonded specimens were fractured using a three point flexural jig. The only bond obtained with the chemically curing cements was after acid etching and bonding adhesive application. The light curing cements produced a bond with all treatments but a true cohesive fracture was only obtained after application of the dentine primer and bonding adhesive of the particular bonding system employed. It is recommended that a bonding adhesive be applied after acid etching chemically curing GICs in order to achieve a bond to composite resin. The light curing GIC should not be etched with phosphoric acid and is the material of choice as it is both stronger and less technique sensitive than the chemically curing GICs. Manufacturers' instructions may not always give the best results.     

The effect of surface conditioning on the bond strength of resin composite to amalgam

Objectives

This study evaluated the effect of different surface conditioning methods on the tensile bond strength (TBS) and integrity of the amalgam-resin composite interface, using commercially available restoration repair systems.

Methods

One hundred and sixty Gamma 2 amalgam specimens were stored in artificial saliva for 2 weeks and then randomly assigned to one of the following conditioning groups (n = 20/group): Group 1: air abrasion, alloy primer and ‘Panavia 21’, Group 2: air abrasion and ‘Amalgambond Plus’, Group 3: air abrasion and ‘All-Bond 3’, Group 4: diamond bur, alloy primer and ‘Panavia 21’, Group 5: diamond bur and ‘Amalgambond Plus’, Group 6: diamond bur and ‘All-Bond 3’, Group 7: silica coating technique, and Group 8: non-conditioned amalgam surfaces (control group). Subsequently, resin composite material was added to the substrate surfaces and the amalgam-resin composite specimens were subjected to TBS testing. Representative samples from the test groups were subjected to scanning electron microscopy and surface profilometry. The data was analysed statistically with one-way ANOVA and post hoc Tukey's tests (α = 0.05).

Results

The mean TBS of amalgam-resin composite ranged between 1.34 and 5.13 MPa and varied with the degree of amalgam surface roughness and the type of conditioning technique employed. Significantly highest TBS values (5.13 ± 0.96 MPa) were obtained in Group 1 (p = 0.013).

Conclusion

Under the tested conditions, significantly greater tensile bond strength of resin composite to amalgam was achieved when the substrate surface was conditioned by air abrasion followed by the application of the Panavia 21 adhesive system.

Clinical significance

Effecting a repair of an amalgam restoration with resin composite via the use of air abrasion and application of Panavia 21 would seem to enhance the integrity of the amalgam-resin composite interface. Clinical trials involving the implementation of this technique are indicated to determine the usefulness of this technique.     

Bond strength of a new universal self-adhesive resin luting cement to dentin and enamel

The objective of this study was to assess the bonding performance of a new universal self-adhesive cement RelyX Unicem (RXU) to dentin and enamel compared to four currently used luting systems, using a shear bond strength test with and without thermocycling. Median bond strengths were determined after 24 h storage, and after thermocycling (6,000 cycles, 5–55°C) for RXU and compared to Syntac/Variolink II (SynC/V) as a standard for luting conventional ceramics, ED-Primer II/Panavia F2.0 (EDII/PF2), Prime&Bond NT/Dyract Cem Plus (PBNT/DyCP), and a glass ionomer cement, Ketac Cem (KetC), as a standard for luting high-strength ceramic and metal-based restorations. Data (n=10 per group) were statistically analyzed using the Mann–Whitney–Wilcoxon test at the 0.05 level of significance. The bond strength (MPa) of RXU to dentin (10.8) was not statistically different from those of SynC/V (15.1), EDII/PF2 (10.5) or PBNT/DyCP (10.1), and statistically higher than KetC (4.1). The bond strength of RXU to enamel (14.5) was significantly lower than those of SynC/V (32.8), EDII/PF2 (23.6), and PBNT/DyCP (17.8), but higher than KetC (6.1). After thermocycling, the bond strength of RXU to enamel significantly decreased, but was still significantly higher than that of KetC. RelyX Unicem may be considered an alternative to Ketac Cem for high-strength ceramic or metal-based restorations, and may be used for luting conventional ceramic crowns with little or no enamel left.

Bond strength of glass-ionomer cement and composite resin combinations.

The tensile bond strength to dentin was measured for three glass-ionomer cement and composite resin combinations: two light-curing glass-ionomer cements (Vitrebond and XR-Ionomer) and one traditional glass-ionomer cement (Ketac-Bond), two adhesive systems (Scotchbond, and XR-Bonding System), and a corresponding composite resin. The bond strength of this "sandwich" was also compared with that of the same cements used in bulk. Vitrebond showed a significantly higher bond strength in bulk than did the other two cements. Of the sandwiches, the XR-Ionomer and XR-Bond combination showed a bond strength significantly higher than that of the Vitrebond and Scotchbond or Ketac-Bond and Scotchbond combination. The fracture of the bond was mainly adhesive for Vitrebond, cohesive for XR-Ionomer when used in bulk and adhesive-cohesive when used in a sandwich, and cohesive for Ketac-Bond.     

Micro-shear bond strength of dual-cured resin cement to glass ceramics.

OBJECTIVES: The aim of this study was to investigate the effects of sandblasting, etching, and a silane coupling agent on the ability of dual-cured resin cement to bond to glass ceramics designed for in indirect adhesive restoration. METHODS: A cast glass ceramic (Olympus Castable Ceramics) with a crystalline phase consisting of mica and beta-spondumene was selected as the substrate material. The glass surfaces, which were sandblasted, polished, or etched with phosphoric acid or hydrofluoric acid (HF), were bonded with a dual-cured resin cement (Panavia Fluoro Cement) using a dentin adhesive system (Clearfil SE Bond), both with and without a silane coupling agent. A micro-shear bond test was carried out to measure the bond strength of the resin cement to the glass surface. Each glass surface was bonded and tested using the shear test. In addition, surfaces with the bonding removed after the shear bond test, the adhesive interface between the glass and cement, and an etched glass surface without any bonding, were studied morphologically using scanning electron microscopy or field emission scanning electron microscopy. RESULTS: Usage of a silane coupling agent effectively raised the bond-strength values of resin cement (Fisher's PLSD, P<0.01). The effectiveness of using phosphoric acid etching to improve bonding was not clear (Fisher's PLSD, P>0.01). HF-etching for 30s seemed to over-etch the glass surface, resulting in adverse effects on bonding (Fisher's PLSD, P<0.01). SIGNIFICANCE: The micro-shear bond strength between Olympus Castable Ceramics and resin cement can be increased by the silane coupling agent used along with an acidic primer.     

Bond strength of acrylic teeth to denture base resin after various surface conditioning methods before and after thermocycling

This study aimed to evaluate the durability of adhesion between acrylic teeth and denture base acrylic resin. The base surfaces of 24 acrylic teeth were flatted and submitted to 4 surface treatment methods: SM1 (control): No SM; SM2: application of a methyl methacrylate-based bonding agent (Vitacol); SM3: air abrasion with 30-microm silicone oxide plus silane; SM4: SM3 plus SM2. A heat-polymerized acrylic resin was applied to the teeth. Thereafter, bar specimens were produced for the microtensile test at dry and thermocyled conditions (60 days water storage followed by 12,000 cycles). The results showed that bond strength was significantly affected by the SM (P < .0001) (SM4 = SM2 > SM3 > SM1) and storage regimens (P < .0001) (dry > thermocycled). The methyl methacrylate-based adhesive showed the highest bond strength.     

Bond strength between fibre posts and composite resin cores: effect of post surface silanization

AIM: To evaluate the tensile bond strength between two different composite resin cores and (Clearfil Core, MultiCore Flow) and fibre posts (DT Light Post), with and without silanization of the post surface. METHODOLOGY: Forty fibre posts were shortened to a length of 15 mm. Specimens were then produced by covering the upper 3 mm of the posts with standardized composite core build-ups. The bonding surfaces of twenty posts were treated with silane coupling agent (Monobond-S). Four experimental groups were formed: G1: Clearfil Core; G2: Monobond-S + Clearfil Core; G3: MultiCore Flow; G4: Monobond-S + MultiCore Flow. Each post was positioned upright in a post centric device with moulds to ensure standardized shapes of the abutments. After tensile bond strength testing, the type of failure at the interface was determined. The results obtained were compared using an unpaired sample t-test. RESULTS: The mean tensile bond strengths and standard deviations were [MPa] 10.08 +/- 0.92 for Clearfil Core, 10.47 +/- 1.05 for Clearfil Core + silane; 6.65 +/- 0.79 for MultiCore Flow and 6.91 +/- 0.83 for MultiCore Flow + silane. Statistical analysis revealed that Clearfil Core achieved significantly higher bond strengths than MultiCore Flow (P < 0.0001). Post silanization had no significant effect. All tested specimens had an adhesive failure mode. CONCLUSION: Type of composite had a significant effect on tensile bond strength. Silanization of fibre post surfaces had no effect on core retention.     

Effects of post surface conditioning before silanization on bond strength between fiber post and resin cement

PURPOSE

Post surface conditioning is necessary to expose the glass fibers to enable bonding between fiber post and resin cement. The purpose of the present study was to evaluate the effect of different surface conditioning on tensile bond strength (TBS) of a glass fiber reinforced post to resin cement.

MATERIALS AND METHODS

In this in vitro study, 40 extracted single canal central incisors were endodontically treated and post spaces were prepared. The teeth were divided into four groups according to the methods of post surface treatment (n=10): 1) Silanization after etching with 20% H₂O₂, 2) Silanization after airborne-particle abrasion, 3) Silanization, and 4) No conditioning (Control). Adhesive resin cement (Panavia F 2.0) was used for cementation of the fiber posts to the root canal dentin. Three slices of 3 mm thick were obtained from each root. A universal testing machine was used with a cross-head speed of 1 mm/minute for performing the push-out tests. Two-way ANOVA and Tukey post hoc tests were used for analyzing data (α=0.05).

RESULTS

It is revealed that different surface treatments and root dentin regions had significant effects on TBS, but the interaction between surface treatments and root canal regions had no significant effect on TBS. There was significant difference among H₂O₂ + Silane Group and other three groups.

CONCLUSION

There were significant differences among the mean TBS values of different surface treatments. Application of hydrogen peroxide before silanization increased the bond strength between resin cements and fiber posts. The mean TBS mean values was significantly greater in the coronal region of root canal than the middle and apical thirds.
