Statement Of Problem: Optimal composite resin bonds to polymer-infiltrated ceramic network (PICN) computer-aided design and computer-aided manufacturing (CAD-CAM) materials are essential for clinical success. However, comparative bond strength studies on the influence of different etching and cleaning methods on these materials are lacking.
Purpose: The purpose of this in vitro study was to measure and compare the microshear bond strength (μSBS) of a composite resin cement with that of a PICN material after different surface treatment and cleaning methods.
Material And Methods: Seventy specimens of a CAD-CAM PICN were divided into 7 groups (n=10): no treatment (control), hydrofluoric acid etching for 20 seconds (HF20), 60 seconds (HF60), 120 seconds (HF120), HF20 + phosphoric acid for 60 seconds and ultrasonic bath for 5 minutes, HF60 + PH, and HF120 + PH. After surface treatment, a silane coupling agent and composite resin cement were applied. Microshear bond strength was determined, and data were analyzed with 1-way ANOVA and Tukey post hoc multiple comparison tests (α=.05).
Results: All HF acid treatments resulted in a significant increase in bond strength to the polymer-infiltrated ceramic network material (P=.02). Bond strength values for HF etching for 20 seconds were significantly lower than those for 60 seconds and 120 seconds (P=.034). No difference was found between 60 seconds and 120 seconds of HF etching time (P=.986). Additional surface treatment with phosphoric acid 60 seconds and ultrasonic bath 5 minutes did not improve the bond strength beyond values obtained by hydrofluoric acid treatment only (P=.834). Most failures were cohesive.
Conclusions: Acid etching and surface treatment have significant effects on composite resin bond strength to a PICN CAD-CAM material. HF etching for 60 seconds or 120 seconds provides the highest bond strengths. Cleaning methods after etching did not have any significant effect on bond strength.

BACKGROUND Indirect ceramic restorations often need multiple firings to match the shade of natural teeth or need after-correction and ceramic addition during the clinical trial stage. Many studies have examined how multiple firings affect the mechanical characteristics of zirconia-veneered prostheses. The effect of firing number on adhesion between these core and heat-pressed lithium disilicate veneering ceramics is unclear.

This study aimed to compare the bonding efficacy three bioactive self-adhesive restorative systems to dentin. A total of 80 permanent human molars were utilized in this study. The occlusal enamel was removed to exposed mid-coronal dentin; 40 molars were used for microshear bond strength testing, while the remaining molars were used for micromorphological analysis of restoration/dentin interface.

This study investigates camel milk protein structural dynamics during digestion using Fourier Transform Infrared (FTIR) spectroscopy and Two-Dimensional Infrared (2D-IR) homo-correlation and hetero-correlation analysis. The synchronous 2DIR homo-correlation map reveals that NH bending and C-N stretching vibrations (amide II) are sensitive to digestion, indicating significant impacts on secondary structures. The asynchronous 2DIR homo-correlation indicates a stepwise process, where initial disruptions in NH interactions precede changes in CO stretching vibrations (amide I), highlighting the sequence of structural alterations during protein unfolding and degradation.

It is difficult to intuit how electronic structure features-such as band gap magnitude, location of band extrema, effective masses, -arise from the underlying crystal chemistry of a material. Here we present a strategy to distill sparse and chemically-interpretable tight-binding models from density functional theory calculations, enabling us to interpret how multiple orbital interactions in a 3D crystal conspire to shape the overall band structure. Applying this process to silicon, we show that its indirect gap arises from a competition between first and second nearest-neighbor bonds-where second nearest-neighbor interactions pull the conduction band down from Γ to X in a cosine shape, but the first nearest-neighbor bonds push the band up near X, resulting in the characteristic dip of the silicon conduction band.
