Shear bond strength between alumina substrate and prosthodontic resin composites with various adhesive resin systems

摘要

Background With the increase in demand for cosmetics and esthetics, resin composite restorations and all-ceramic restorations have become an important treatment alternative. Taking into consideration the large number of prosthodontic and adhesive resins currently available, the strength and durability of these materials needs to be evaluated. This laboratory study presents the shear bond strengths of a range of veneering resin composites bonded to all-ceramic core material using different adhesive resins. Methods Alumina ceramic specimens (Techceram Ltd, Shipley, UK) were assigned to three groups. Three types of commercially available prosthodontic resin composites [BelleGlass?, (BG, Kerr, CA, USA), Sinfony? (SF, 3?M ESPE, Dental Products, Germany), and GC Gradia? (GCG, GC Corp, Tokyo, Japan)] were bonded to the alumina substrate using four different adhesive resins. Half the specimens per group (N?=?40) were stored dry for 24?hours, the remaining were stored for 30?days in water. The bonding strength, so-called shear bond strengths between composite resin and alumina substrate were measured. Data were analysed statistically and variations in bond strength within each group were additionally evaluated by calculating the Weibull modulus. Results Bond strengths were influenced by the brand of prosthodontic resin composites. Shear bond strengths of material combinations varied from 24.17?±?3.72–10.15?±?3.69?MPa and 21.20?±?4.64–7.50?±?4.22 at 24?h and 30?days, respectively. BG resin composite compared with the other resin composites provided the strongest bond with alumina substrate (p? Conclusion Within the limitations of this study, the shear bond strengths of composite resins to alumina substrate are related to the composite resins.
