Shear bond strength between gingival composite resin and glazed gingival porcelain for implant-supported prostheses

This study determined the shear bond strength (SBS) between an indirect gingival composite resin and glazed gingival porcelain after various surface treatments. A total of 176 porcelain disks with natural glazing were used and assigned to one of four groups: no surface treatment, airborne-particle abrasion, hydrofluoric acid etching, or a combination of airborne-particle abrasion followed by hydrofluoric acid etching. Each group was divided into two subgroups: one subgroup was unprimed, and the other was silanized. An indirect composite resin was then bonded to the porcelain disks. Half of the specimens in each group (n = 11) were exposed to 5000 thermocycles. SBSs were measured, and data were analyzed with the Kruskal-Wallis and Steel-Dwass tests. Among silanized specimens, those treated with the combination of airborne-particle abrasion and hydrofluoric acid etching exhibited the highest bond strengths both before and after thermocycling. However, the SBS values of the silanized and unprimed hydrofluoric acid etched specimens did not differ significantly. Airborne-particle abrasion followed by hydrofluoric acid etching with silane application yielded stronger, more durable bonds between the indirect gingival composite resin and glazed gingival porcelain.

Bond strengths between gingiva-colored layering resin composite and zirconia frameworks coated with feldspathic porcelain

This study evaluated shear bond strengths of two gingiva-colored layering resin composites to zirconia frameworks coated with feldspathic porcelain. Airborne-particle abraded porcelain-coated zirconia disks were treated with one of the following primers: Clearfil Photo Bond, Clearfil Photo Bond with Clearfil Porcelain Bond Activator (CPB+Activator), Estenia Opaque Primer, Porcelain Liner M Liquid B (PLB), or no primer. A light-polymerizing (CER) or a photo/heat-polymerizing gingiva-colored indirect resin composite (EST) was bonded to the porcelain-coated zirconia disks in each group (n=11). Shear bond strength was measured. For both CER and EST specimens, bond strengths in CPB+Act group were significantly higher than those in the other groups. In all priming groups, bond strength was significantly higher for EST specimens than for CER specimens. Combined application of a phosphate monomer and silane enhanced initial bond strength of light-polymerized and photo/heat-polymerized gingiva-colored layering resin composites to porcelain-coated zirconia ceramics.

Shear bond strength of a denture base acrylic resin and gingiva-colored indirect composite material to zirconia ceramics

PURPOSE

To evaluate the shear bond strengths of two gingiva-colored materials (an indirect composite material and a denture base acrylic resin) to zirconia ceramics and determine the effects of surface treatment with various priming agents.

METHODS

A gingiva-colored indirect composite material (CER) or denture base acrylic resin (PAL) was bonded to zirconia disks with unpriming (UP) or one of seven priming agents (n=11 each), namely, Alloy Primer (ALP), Clearfil Photo Bond (CPB), Clearfil Photo Bond with Clearfil Porcelain Bond Activator (CPB+Act), Metal Link (MEL), Meta Fast Bonding Liner (MFB), MR. bond (MRB), and V-Primer (VPR). Shear bond strength was determined before and after 5000 thermocycles. The data were analyzed with the Kruskal-Wallis test and Steel-Dwass test.

RESULTS

The mean pre-/post-thermalcycling bond strengths were 1.0-14.1MPa/0.1-12.1MPa for the CER specimen and 0.9-30.2MPa/0.1-11.1MPa for the PAL specimen. For the CER specimen, the ALP, CPB, and CPB+Act groups had significantly higher bond strengths among the eight groups, at both 0 and 5000 thermocycles. For the PAL specimen, shear bond strength was significantly lower after thermalcycling in all groups tested. After 5000 thermocycles, bond strengths were significantly higher in the CPB and CPB+Act groups than in the other groups.

CONCLUSIONS

For the PAL specimens, bond strengths were significantly lower after thermalcycling in all groups tested. The MDP functional monomer improved bonding of a gingiva-colored indirect composite material and denture base acrylic resin to zirconia ceramics.

Effect of various surface preparations on bond strength of a gingiva-colored indirect composite to zirconia framework for implant-supported prostheses

To evaluate the effects of various surface preparations on shear bond strength of a gingiva-colored indirect composite material and zirconia framework. Zirconia disks were prepared with one of nine surface treatments: hydrofluoric acid etching (HF), heating at 1,000°C for 10 min (HT), wet-grinding with 600- and 1500-grit SiC paper (SiC 600 and 1500), alumina-blasting at 0.1, 0.2, 0.4 and 0.6 MPa (AB 0.1, 0.2, 0.4, and 0.6), and no treatment (NT). An indirect composite material was bonded to zirconia. Shear bond strengths were measured. Bond strength was significantly higher in AB 0.2, 0.4, and 0.6 groups than in other groups at 0 and 20,000 thermocycles. Post-thermocycling bond strength was lower in NT, HF, and HT groups than in other groups. Alumina-blasting with 0.2 MPa or higher yielded sufficient durable bond strength between gingiva-colored indirect composite and zirconia frameworks. Hydrofluoric acid etching and heat treatment did not achieve durable bond strengths.

Post-thermocycling shear bond strength of a gingiva-colored indirect composite layering material to three implant framework materials

OBJECTIVE

To evaluate shear bond strength of a gingiva-colored indirect composite to three implant framework materials, before and after thermocycling, and verify the effect of surface pre-treatment for each framework.

MATERIALS AND METHODS

Commercially pure titanium (CP-Ti), American Dental Association (ADA) type 4 casting gold alloy (Type IV) and zirconia ceramics (Zirconia) were assessed. For each substrate, 96 disks were divided into six groups and primed with one of the following primers: Alloy Primer (ALP), Clearfil Photo Bond (CPB), Clearfil Photo Bond with Clearfil Porcelain Bond Activator (CPB+Activator), Estenia Opaque Primer (EOP), Metal Link (MLP) and V-Primer (VPR). The specimens were then bonded to a gingiva-colored indirect composite (Ceramage Concentrate GUM-D). Shear bond strengths were measured at 0 and 20 000 thermocycles and data were analyzed with the Steel-Dwass test and Mann-Whitney U-test.

RESULTS

Shear bond strengths were significantly lower after thermocycling, with the exception of Type IV specimens primed with CPB (p = 0.092) or MLP (p = 0.112). For CP-Ti and Zirconia specimens, priming with CPB or CPB+Activator produced significantly higher bond strengths at 0 and 20 000 thermocycles, as compared with the other groups. For Type IV specimens, priming with ALP or MLP produced higher bond strengths at 0 and 20 000 thermocycles.

CONCLUSIONS

Shear bond strength of a gingiva-colored indirect composite to CP-Ti, gold alloy and zirconia ceramics was generally lower after thermocycling. Application of a hydrophobic phosphate monomer and polymerization initiator was effective in maintaining bond strength of CP-Ti and zirconia ceramics. Combined use of a thione monomer and phosphoric monomer enhanced the durable bond strength of gold alloy.

The effect of different surface treatments on the bond strength of a gingiva-colored indirect composite veneering material to three implant framework materials

OBJECTIVES

To evaluate and compare the shear-bond strength of a gingiva-colored indirect composite material to three different implant framework materials (zirconia ceramics, gold alloy, and titanium), and to investigate the effect of surface pretreatment by air-particle abrasion and four priming agents.

MATERIAL AND METHODS

A gingiva-colored indirect composite (Ceramage) was bonded to three framework materials (n = 80): commercially pure titanium (CP- Ti ), ADA (American Dental Association)-type 4 casting gold alloy (Type IV), and zirconia ceramics (Zirconia) with or without airborne-particle abrasion. Before bonding, the surface of the specimens was treated using no (control) or one of four priming agents: Alloy Primer (ALP), Estenia Opaque Primer (EOP), Metal Link Primer (MLP), and V-Primer (VPR). Shear-bond strength was determined after 24-h wet storage. Data were analyzed using Steel-Dwass for multiple comparisons, and Mann-Whitney U-test (P = 0.05).

RESULTS

For both CP- Ti and Zirconia substrates, three groups, ALP, EOP, and MLP, showed significantly higher bond strengths (P < 0.05) than the other groups with or without airborne-particle abrasion. For Type IV substrates, significantly higher bond strengths were obtained in ALP and MLP groups (P < 0.01) compared with the other groups with airborne-particle abrasion.

CONCLUSIONS

Application of priming agents containing specific phosphoric ester groups significantly enhances the bond strength of a gingiva-colored composite material to commercially pure titanium and zirconia frameworks. Combined use of a thione monomer with a phosphoric monomer enhances the bond strengths to airborne-particle abraded type IV gold alloy.
