Influence of surface conditioning and cleaning methods on resin bonding to zirconia ceramic

Dental Materials, 2011

Objectives. The purpose of this laboratory study was to evaluate the influence of different surface conditioning, new ceramic primers and cleaning methods on the bond strength of luting resin to zirconia ceramic (e.max ZirCAD). Methods. A total of 96 zirconia ceramic discs were divided into six groups (n = 16) according to surface conditioning, cleaning methods and ceramic primers. Zirconia ceramic discs were either air-abraded with 110 m alumina particles or tribochemically silica-coated (Rocatec). Visible dust resulting from airborne particle abrasion or silica coating was removed either by oil-free air stream or by ultrasonic cleaning in alcohol. Then either a conventional silane (Espe Sil) or a universal primer containing a silane and a phosphate monomer (Monobond Plus) were applied to the conditioned surface. Transparent plastic tubes filled with composite resin were bonded to the zirconia ceramic discs using a luting resin (MultiLink Automix). The bonded specimens were stored in water at 37 • C for 3 days and for 30 days with 7500 thermal cycles between 5 • C and 55 • C prior to tensile test. Statistical analyses were conducted with three-, two-and one-way ANOVAs followed by comparison of means with Tukey's HSD test. Results. Tensile bond strength ranged from 31.5 to 45.2 MPa after 3 days and from 10.6 to 38.8 MPa after 30 days storage in water with thermal cycling. After artificial aging the decrease in bond strength was significant when the conventional silane was applied after silica coating or when the universal primer was used after airborne particle abrasion without ultrasonic cleaning (P < .05). However after artificial aging, the decrease in bond strength was not significant (P > .05) when the universal primer was used after airborne particle abrasion with ultrasonic cleaning or after silica coating. Significance. A new universal primer improved bonding to zirconia ceramic while the cleaning method had little or no effect.

Influence of Surface Treatment and Resin Cements on the Bond Strength between the Y-TZP Zirconia and Composite Resin Interface

Journal of Health Sciences, 2019

The evolution of dental materials and the improvement of ceramic systems stimulated the increased use of Y-TZP zirconia-based ceramics. Despite the excellent mechanical performance, this material has low adhesion potential. The objective of this work was to evaluate the surface treatments and resin cements influence on bond strength between Y-TZP zirconia and composite resin interface. A total of 60 blocks of Y-TZP zirconia (3x8x8mm) were prepared and divided into 3 groups according to the surface treatments: (C) control - extra fine diamond bur, (J) sandblasting with Al2O3 and (JP) sandblasting with Al2O3 + ceramic primer. Each group was subdivided into two groups according to type of resin cement used for cementing composite resin discs (2mm thick x 5mm diameter): self-adhesive and conventional (n=10). The samples were stored in distilled water for 24 hours at 37±1°C in a incubator and subsequently submitted to the shear bond test to determine the bond strength (RU). There was no ...

Evaluation of Surface Conditioning of Zirconia and its Effect on Bonding to Resin-Luting Agent

Journal of Contemporary Dentistry, 2013

Zirconia, a recently introduced ceramic exhibits excellent esthetic qualities and demonstrates outstanding flexural strength but its extensive use, requires a reliable bond of Zirconia with resinluting agent. Resin Zirconia bonding cannot be achieved as the material is resistant to common etching procedures used for other glass containing ceramics. With surface conditioning increased adhesion between Zirconia and resin-luting agent can be successfully achieved. Aim Aim of this study was to evaluate surface conditioning of Zirconia and its effect on bonding to resin-luting agent. Materials and Methods Fifteen blocks of Zirconia (VITA Zirconia) were fabricated in the laboratory according to manufacturer's instructions and embedded in acrylic resin to get 15 Zirconia samples. Fifteen composite resin cylinders were prepared one for each Zirconia sample. All the 15 Zirconia samples were divided into three groups of five samples each. Group A: Was kept as control with no surface condi...

Operative Dentistry, 2012

SUMMARY Objectives This study evaluated the effect of an alkaline solution and two 10-methacryloyloxydecyl dihydrogen phosphate (MDP)-based primer agents on bond strength to zirconia (yttria-stabilized tetragonal zirconium polycrystal [Y-TZP]) through the shear bond strength (SBS) test. Materials and Methods Sixty square-shaped Y-TZP samples were embedded in an acrylic resin mold, polished, and randomly assigned to one of six groups (n=10) according to treatment surface: group CR, no treatment (control); group NaOH, 0.5 M NaOH; group AP, Alloy Primer; group ZP, Z-Primer Plus; group NaOH-AP, 0.5 M NaOH + Alloy Primer; and group NaOH-ZP, 0.5 M NaOH + Z-Primer Plus. The resin cement (Rely X U100) was applied inside a matrix directly onto the Y-TZP surface, and it was light-cured for 40 seconds. The samples were stored in distilled water at 37°C for 24 hours prior to the test, which was performed in a universal machine at a crosshead-speed of 0.5 mm/min. The data were analyzed by one-wa...

Effect of Different Surface Treatments and Resin Types on Bonding to Translucent Zirconia

Egyptian Dental Journal

Purpose: This in vitro study measured the adhesive properties of 10-MDP and MPE containing resin cements, using two types of zirconia surface treatments; selective infiltration etching(SIE) and airborne particle abrasion (APA) to translucent zirconia (3M, ESPE). Statement of Problem: Due to translucent zirconia modified composition (alumina content reduced to tenth of its weight) bonding strength to different resin cements after different surface treatments should be investigated adequately. Materials and Methods:Sixty sintered Lava plus high translucency disks(3M,ESPE)were randomly divided into three study groups according to their surface treatment: (a) polished surface (control group); (b) air borne particle abraded (grit blasted) with 50 µm aluminum trioxide (APA); and (c) selective infiltration etching (SIE). Zirconia disks (15x2mm) were then bonded to 60 composite resin disks (8x4mm) using two different resin composite cements (Clearfil SA and Rely X). Resin-zirconia adhesion strength was evaluated using the microshear bond strength test (MSBS) after 24 hour of storage in deionized water at 37˚C. One way ANOVA and Scheffé s posthoc tests were used to analyze the data (p<0.001). Then fractured samples were studied under SEM and classified according to failure pattern. Results: Different types of resin cement and surface treatment significantly influenced the MSBS (P<0.001). The highest mean MSBS values were recorded with MDP containing resin cement (Clearfil SA) in both SIE (26.18 ±1.12 MPa) and APA (21.67±1.34) groups. Bond strength values were reduced significantly in control group when using the two types of cements. Regarding failure pattern, MDP groups showed cohesive and MPE and control groups showed adhesive type. Conclusion: SIE and APA in combination with 10-MDP containing resin cement established a strong durable bond to zirconia substrates than MPE groups. SIE and APA showed significant higher bond strength values than control groups.

Surface analysis and shear bond strength of zirconia on resin cements after non-thermal plasma treatment and/or primer application for metallic alloys

Materials Science and Engineering: C, 2016

There is no established protocol for bonding zirconia (Y-TZP) with resin cements. Non-thermal plasma (NTP) may be an alternative for the clinical problems related to adhesion. The purpose of the present study was to characterize the surface of Y-TZP exposed to methane (CH 4) NTP or coated with a layer of primer for metal alloys and the association between the two methods and to evaluate the effect of NTP treatment on bond strength between Y-TZP and two resin cements. A total of 235 Y-TZP discs (8 × 2 mm) were distributed into five groups: Co (no surface treatment), Pr (primer), NTP (methane plasma), Pr + NTP and NTP + Pr. The effect of the treatment type on the surface free energy, morphology, topography and chemical composition of the Y-TZP discs was investigated. The discs were cemented to composite resin substrates using Panavia F2.0 or RelyX U200. Shear bond strength (n = 10) analyses were performed (1 mm/min) before and after thermocycling (5-55°C, 2000 cycles) on the bonded specimens. The data were analyzed with one and three-way ANOVAs and Bonferroni tests (α = 0.05). NTP reduced the surface energy and roughness of the Y-TZP discs. SEM-EDS and XPS analyses showed the presence of the organic thin film, which significantly improved the bond strength results when Rely X U200 was used, whereas the primer treatment was more effective with Panavia F2.0. Thermocycling significantly reduced the bond strength results of the NTP and Pr + NTP groups cemented with Rely X U200 and the Pr and NTP + Pr groups cemented with Panavia F2.0. Nonthermal plasma improves the bond strength between Rely X U200 and Y-TZP and also seems to have water-resistant behavior, whereas Panavia F2.0 showed better results when associated with primer.

Efficacy of Surface Roughness and Bond Strength of Y-TZP Zirconia After Various Pre-Treatments

Photomedicine and Laser Surgery, 2015

Objective: The aim of this study was to evaluate surface roughness (SR) and the influence of various surface treatments (STs) on the veneer ceramic shear bond strength (SBS) to Y-TZP zirconia. Background data: STs can improve the bonding properties of zirconia ceramics. However, little is known about the effect of Er,Cr:YSGG laser irradiation on SBS between zirconia and veneer ceramic/resin cement. Methods: Eighty ceramic discs of yttriatetragonal zirconia polycrystals (Y-TZP) were prepared, and specimens were divided into eight groups (n = 10): untreated (control), air abrasion, and Er,Cr:YSGG laser irradiation with different energy intensities (1-6 W). Average SR of each specimen was determined with a profilometer, and a veneering ceramic recommended for zirconia was fired into cylinder-shaped Y-TZP specimens. SBS test was performed for each specimen at a crosshead speed of 1 mm/min, and the average means of SBS and SR were calculated. Fracture modes and the surface topography were evaluated with various microscopes after STs. Data were analyzed by using one way analysis of variance (ANOVA) and Tukey honest significant difference (HSD) tests. Results: The highest mean force value was observed in the air abrasion group, and followed by 6 and 5 W laser irradiations, respectively. The difference between control and air abrasion groups was found to be statistically significant (p < 0.05). All laser irradiations increased the SBS value, but 1 and 2 W laser irradiations showed no statistically significant differences compared with the control group. However, the SR value for air abrasion group was significantly higher than that of the control group and 1 W (p < 0.05), and there were no significant differences between the SR of all the laser groups and the control group. Conclusions: The result of this study showed that STs with air abrasion and high laser energy intensities (3-6W), can improve the bonding properties of Y-TZP zirconia.
