Bond strength of veneering porcelain to zirconia after different surface treatments

The aim of this study was to evaluate the effect of various surface treatments on the bond strength of veneering feldspathic porcelain to zirconia. Methods: Fifty yttria-stabilized tetragonal zirconia polycrystalline specimens were divided into five groups (n = 10) according to various surface treatments. The groups were as follows: Group 1: control group with liner application and no further surface treatment; Group 2: air-particle abrasion with 110 μm of alumina (Al 2 O 3 ) particles; Group 3: grinding with a diamond disk; Group 4: Nd:YAG laser irradiation (the laser and the energy parameters were 10 Hz, and 2 W and 200 mJ, and the pulse duration (short pulse) range was up to 180 μs); Group 5: selective infiltration etching (SIE). After surface treatments, a liner application was performed for all surfaces according to the manufacturer's instructions. Veneering porcelain was applied on zirconia surfaces using a Teflon mold. Shear bond strength was tested using a universal testing machine. The fractured surface morphologies were examined with scanning electron microscopy. The data were statistically analyzed using Mann-Whitney U and Kruskal-Wallis tests (α = .05). Results: The Megapascal values of the bonding groups were as follows: G1 = 8.62 ± 1.12, G2 = 13.87 ± 5.08, G3 = 12.31 ± 3.35, G4 = 17.32 ± 6.16, and G5 = 16.17 ± 4.55. Statistically significant differences were observed between the control group and the other groups (p < 0.05). Group 4 had the highest bond strength while G1 showed the lowest bond strength. No significant differences were found between the Nd:YAG, grinding, sandblasting, and SIE groups. Conclusion: Surface treatments had different effects on the shear bond strength of feldspathic porcelain to zirconia. Surface treatment techniques used in this study can be used on zirconia specimens prior to liner application to obtain an acceptable bond strength of veneering porcelain to zirconia. The effect of Nd:YAG laser irradiation and SIE techniques on bond strength of veneering ceramic to zirconia should be evaluated with further studies.

A comparison of bond strength of layered veneering porcelains to zirconia and metal

The Journal of Prosthetic Dentistry, 2010

This study demonstrates that the bond of veneering porcelain to a zirconia ceramic framework can be similar to that of a metal ceramic system. Therefore, similar clinical behavior can be expected for zirconia-based restorations when veneering porcelains with a slightly lower coefficient of thermal expansion, compared to that of zirconia ceramics, are used.

Synergistic reinforcement of surface modification on improving the bonding of veneering ceramics to zirconia

Ceramics International, 2018

Veneering ceramics should be strongly bonded to zirconia core in order to achieve successfully long-term clinical practice. Indeed, to pursue the high zirconia core-veneering ceramic bonding is still a concerned issue. In this regard, this study was to treat zirconia surface using a 3 wt% Si 3 N 4 solution in 4 M NaOH and to investigate the effect of soaking time (5, 10, and 20 days) on the surface properties of zirconia and shear bond strength between zirconia and veneering ceramics. The residual veneering ceramics on zirconia surfaces and failure modes were also examined after fracture. The results showed that the phase composition of zirconia before and after surface modification was not changed. The elemental mapping and depth profiling consistently revealed the soaking-time-dependent Si content on the zirconia surface. The surface roughness of zirconia was significantly (P < 0.05) increased with the increasing soaking time. When zirconia was treated for 10 days, the shear bond strength value of 27.4 MPa was significantly (P < 0.05) higher than the control (18.6 MPa), associated with greater remaining amounts of veneering ceramics on the zirconia surface. The failure mode of the treated zirconia was almost the mixed failure. On the basis of the data, surface modification using Si 3 N 4 in NaOH solution for zirconia core could be a simple and effective method for enhancing the veneering ceramic-zirconia bonding.

Fracture and shear bond strength analyses of different dental veneering ceramics to zirconia

Materials Science and Engineering: C, 2014

The purpose of this work was to evaluate the interaction of different layering porcelains with zirconia via shear bond strength test and microscopy. Four different groups of dental veneering porcelains (VM9, Zirkonzanh, Ceramco, IPS) were fused onto forty zirconia-based cylindrical substrates (8 mm in diameter and 12 mm in height) (n = 10), according to the manufacturer's recommendations. Additionally, layered dental porcelain (D-sign, Ivoclar) was fired on ten Ni-Cr cylindrical substrates Shear bond strength tests of the veneering porcelain to zirconia or Ni-Cr were carried out at a crosshead speed of 0.5 mm/min. After the shear bond tests, the interfaces were analyzed by scanning electron microscopy (SEM). The fracture type exhibited by the different systems was also assessed. The results were statistically analyzed by ANOVA at a significant level of p b .05. The shear bond strength values of the porcelain-to-NiCr interfaces (25.3 ± 7.1 MPa) were significantly higher than those recorded for the following porcelain-to-zirconia systems: Zirkonzanh (18.8 ± 1 MPa), Ceramco (18.2 ± 4.7 MPa), and IPS (16 ± 4.5 MPa). However, no significant differences were found in the shear bond strength values between the porcelain-to-NiCr and porcelain (VM9)-to-zirconia (23.2 ± 5.1 MPa) groups (p N .05). All-ceramic interfaces revealed mixed failure type, cohesive in the porcelain and adhesive at the interface. This study demonstrated that all-ceramic systems do not attain yet the same bond strength standards equivalent to metal-ceramic systems. Therefore, despite the esthetic appeal of all-ceramic restorations, the adhesion between the porcelain and zirconia framework is still an issue considering the long term success of the restoration.

Evaluation of zirconia bonding to veneering porcelain

Zirconium dioxide as core ceramic material for dental crowns and bridges, possess high strength, chemical stability and superior aesthetics after veneering. Veneering ceramic is considered to be the weakest part of all-ceramic restorations. The adhesion between the core and veneering porcelain is based on the manner in which the connection occurs in metal-ceramic structures. Standard procedures for connecting zirconia to hard dental tissues and veneering materials do not achieve the required strength of bonding. The aim of the paper is to investigate different surface treatments of the zirconium dioxide ceramic core and find the best, for achieving highest adhesive bonding values to veneering porcelain. The study was primarily designed to investigate the bonding strength of the veneering porcelain to zirconia with in vitro Macro shear bond strength test. The specimens with different surface treatment of the zirconia were divided in five groups of twelve according to the treatment of zirconium surface and results showed highest bonding values for specimens treated with Rocatec system.

Effects of different surface treatments on the shear bond strength of veneering ceramic materials to zirconia

The Journal of Advanced Prosthodontics, 2019

PURPOSE. To evaluate and compare the effect of different materials and techniques on the shear bond strength of veneering ceramic materials to zirconia. MATERIALS AND METHODS. 136 sintered zirconia cubes were prepared and randomly divided into four study groups according to corresponding methods of surface treatment and materials: GLN (grinding followed by laser scanning using Noritake Cerabien ZR), SLN (sandblasting followed by laser scanning using Noritake Cerabien ZR), GLV (grinding followed by laser scanning using VITA VM 9), and SLV (sandblasting followed by laser scanning using VITA VM 9). Spraying technique was performed to coat the core. Profilometer, SEM, XRD, EDS, universal testing machine, and stereomicroscope were used to record surface roughness Ra, surface morphology, phase transformation, elemental compositions, shear bond strength SBS values, and failure types, respectively. Specimens were investigated in unaged (not immersed in artificial saliva) and aged (stored in artificial saliva for a month) conditions to evaluate SBS values. RESULTS. Grinding and GLN as first and second surface treatments provided satisfactory Ra values in both conditions (1.05 ± 0.24 μm, 1.30 ± 0.21 μm) compared to sandblasting and other groups (P<.05). The group GLN showed the highest SBS values in both conditions (30.97 ± 3.12 MPa, 29.09 ± 4.17 MPa), while group SLV recorded the lowest (23.96 ± 3.60 MPa, 22.95 ± 3.68 Mpa) (P<.05). Sandblasting showed phase transformation from t-m. Mixed failure type was the commonest among all groups. CONCLUSION. GLN showed to be a reliable method which provided satisfactory bond strength between the veneer ceramic and zirconia. This method might preserve the integrity of fixed dental crowns.

Effect of Various Veneering Techniques on Bond Strength and Colour Stability of Zirconia / Veneering Ceramic after Hydrothermal Aging

BACKGROUND The purpose of this in-vitro study was to compare the colour stability and bond strength of zirconia-based ceramic restorations after hydrothermal aging using conventional layering, heat-pressing, and multilayer veneering techniques. METHODS One hundred twenty specimens' core (15 x 10 x 0.7) was fabricated from A2-shade zirconia CAD-CAM blocks (IPS e.max ZirCAD). Specimens were divided into 4 groups for veneering (N = 30): [(layering group (L), IPS e.max ceram), (heat-pressing group (P), IPS press), and multilayer group, IPS e max Cad for 2 different types of cement (cemented with RelyX U200 (M1) and PANAVIA SA (M2))]. Aging was performed for (5-55°C, 5000). Colour coordinates before and after aging were measured to calculate colour differences (ΔE00). The shear bond strength test was performed with a universal test unit. The data were analysed using the analysis of variance (ANOVA) and Tukey's Honest Significant Difference test (alpha = 0.05). RESULTS Significant differences were found between the groups in bond strength (P < 0.001). Group M1 had the highest bond strength while Group L had the lowest bond strength. In terms of ΔE00 values, there were significant variations between the groups (P < 0.001). Group M1 had the highest colour stability, while Group M2 had the lowest colour stability. CONCLUSIONS The method of fabrication had an impact on the power of the bond between veneering ceramic and zirconia, as well as its colour stability. The restoration fabricated by a multilayer technique was cemented by resin cement (Rely X U200 Automix) which was found to be more resistant and colour stable.

Effect of thermal and mechanical cycles on shear bond strength of zirconia core to porcelain veneer under different surface treatments

Journal of Dental Research, Dental Clinics, Dental Prospects

Background. Due to the fragile nature of all-ceramic restorations, it is necessary to provide an appropriate (core) infrastructure to support the veneering porcelain. The veneer detachment and chipping are disadvantages of these restorations. Several techniques have been proposed to minimize these problems. This study evaluated the effect of thermal and mechanical cycles on the shear bond strength of zirconia core to porcelain veneer under different surface treatments. Methods. Sixty disk-like zirconium samples were randomly divided into three groups. The first group was polished and veneered with porcelain, without additional surface treatments. The two other groups were subjected to different surface treatments (modified aluminum oxide by silica and activator‒aluminum oxide and primer) and veneering with porcelain. Half of the samples in each group were subjected to 6000 thermal cycles and 20,000 masticatory cycles of 50 N to imitate the intraoral conditions; the other half were p...

The Role of Liners in Bonding Zirconia to Veneering Porcelain

International Journal of Science and Research (IJSR), 2015

The role of liners in adhesion of zirconia ceramic to veneering porcelain had been tested with in vitro investigation. Twenty four bilayered ceramic specimens were made, and then tested with shear bond strength test (notched edge) to determine the form of separation and the type of fracture. The resulting values for shear strength were calculated and expressed as the strength of the connection (MPa), compared with the control samples without liner. The resulting values of the strength of adhesion vary the interval 36, 03 ± 15, 33 MPa; ± 95, 00% CI: 26.29 to 45.77. The strength of the interface zirconium-ceramic veneers is significantly higher than the minimum force required in conventional metal-ceramic restorations. Thus the application of porcelain liners is a procedure that has a positive impact on shear bond strength.

In vitro evaluation of shear bond strength of veneering ceramics to zirconia

Dental Materials Journal, 2010

The bond strength between veneering ceramic and zirconia framework is the weakest link in the layered structure. To investigate the shear bond strength (SBS) of veneering ceramics to zirconia, four types of zirconia ceramics (Zirkonzahn, Cercon, Lava, DC-Zirkon) were selected. For each zirconia system, 30 disk specimens were layered with IPS e.max Ceram, Vita VM9, and a manufacturerrecommended veneering ceramic. SBS test was conducted, and fracture surface analysis was also performed to determine the failure modes. One-way ANOVA, two-way ANOVA, and Tukey's HSD tests were used to analyze the data. On shear bond strength between zirconia and their recommended veneering ceramics, statistically signiicant differences were observed among the different zirconia systems (p<0.001). DC-Zirkon exhibited the highest SBS value (40.49±8.43 MPa), followed by Lava (27.11±2.72 MPa), Zirkonzahn (24.46±3.72 MPa), and Cercon (20.19±5.12 MPa). On shear bond strength to IPS e.max Ceram and Vita VM9, signiicantly lower
