AI Article Synopsis

  • Applying stains to CAD-CAM ceramic restorations can impact the adhesion between the resin cement and the ceramic, but research on this effect is limited.
  • The study aimed to determine how different staining approaches affect the microshear bond strength between two types of ceramics (lithium disilicate and leucite-reinforced) and resin cement.
  • Findings indicated that intaglio surface staining significantly reduced the bond strength, with most failures occurring at the interface or within the stain layer, suggesting caution when using stains in clinical applications.

Article Abstract

Statement Of Problem: Applying stains to the intaglio surface of computer-aided design and computer-aided manufacturing (CAD-CAM) monolithic ceramic restorations has been proposed as an option to help mask darkened substrates. However, little is known about the effects of this procedure on the adhesion between the resin cement and the ceramic.

Purpose: The purpose of this in vitro study was to evaluate the effect of intaglio surface staining on the microshear bond strength between 2 CAD-CAM ceramics and a resin cement.

Material And Methods: Lithium disilicate (Gmax) and leucite-reinforced (Gpress) ceramic blocks were sectioned, crystalized when indicated, and polished. They received either none, 1, or 2 layers of ceramic stains and a glaze liquid mixture followed by a firing cycle. The surfaces of groups Gmax0, Gmax1, and Gmax2 were etched with 9% hydrofluoric acid etching (HF) for 20 seconds, and those of groups Gpress0 and Gpress1 were etched for 60 seconds. After rinsing and drying, a ceramic primer was applied and air-dried. Resin cement rods (n=24 per group) were built from a silicone mold. Specimens were stored in distilled water for 24 hours before microshear bond testing. Failure mode was observed under a digital microscope. Data were analyzed by using the Kruskal-Wallis and Mann-Whitney nonparametric tests (α=.05).

Results: Intaglio staining negatively affected the microshear bond strength for both ceramics. A significant difference was observed between Gmax1 (3.5 ±1.73 MPa) and Gmax2 (3.7 ±2.1 MPa) when compared with Gmax0 (14.2 ±4.4 MPa) and also between GPress0 (25.7 ±5.1 MPa) and Gpress1 (1.8 ±2.7 MPa). No difference was observed between 1 and 2 stain layers for Gmax. Most failures were adhesive for Gmax0, mixed for Gpress, and cohesive within the stain layer for experimental groups.

Conclusions: Intaglio surface staining with a stain and glaze mixture caused a significant reduction in bond strength between resin cement and both ceramics tested.

Objectives: To evaluate the self-etch bonding potential of universal adhesive systems with varying acidic compositions by analyzing the wettability properties, topographical change, and microshear bond strength (µSBS) to enamel.

Methods: Eight universal adhesives were tested: All-Bond Universal (Bisco), Ambar Universal (FGM), Gluma Bond Universal (Kulzer), OptiBond Universal (Kerr), Peak Universal Bond (Ultradent), Prime&Bond Universal (Dentsply), Singlebond Universal (3 M ESPE), and Tetric N-Bond Universal (Ivoclar). Bovine incisors were prepared and treated with each adhesive according to the manufacturer's instructions.

Statement Of The Problem: One of the most important factors in the clinical longevity of composite resin restorations is proper adhesion, which is achieved using phosphoric acid. Different phosphoric acid products might affect the micro-shear bond strength of composite resin to enamel.

Purpose: The present study aimed to evaluate the micro-shear bond strength of composite resin to sound enamel using six different brands of acid-etch agents.

Aim: To evaluate the micro-shear bond strength (µ-SBS) of resin-modified glass ionomer cement and to assess the chemical and topographical changes in the zirconia fitting surface induced by acidulated phosphate fluoride (APF) gel using scanning electron microscope (SEM) analysis and Fourier transform infrared (FTIR) spectroscopy.

Materials And Methods: Thirty-two samples were prepared from two zirconia materials, UPCERA HT White and BruxZir Solid Zirconia, milled by a computer-aided design/computer-aided manufacturing system. From each zirconia sample, six plates were prepared for FTIR and SEM testing.

Background: Treatment of acid-resistance high-translucent zirconia prior to luting procedures is usually carried out with sandblasting. Considering that this process could lead to the formation of cracks on the zirconia surface, laser irradiation became an alternative to sandblasting. The effect of diode laser, however, was never investigated under this context.
