Objectives
This study was conducted in order to assess the pretreatment method (air abrasion, both wet and dry, and Al2O3 grinder), the conditioning method (comprised of different adhesive systems), the repair resin composite (low and high modulus of elasticity), the contamination of CoJet air-abraded surfaces with water, and the effect phosphoric acid on the macrotensile bond strength (TBS) to aged CAD/CAM resin nanoceramic (RNC).
Materials and methods
Aged RNC substrates (LAVA Ultimate, 3M ESPE; N = 900; 10,000 cycles, 5 °C/55 °C) were air-abraded (CoJet 3M ESPE) with and without water contamination or treated with an Al2O3 grinder (Cimara, Voco). Immediately after pretreatment, half of the specimens were additionally cleaned with phosphoric acid, while the rest were only rinsed with water. Four intermediate agents (Futurabond U/VOCO, Scotchbond Universal/3M ESPE, One Coat Bond/Coltène Whaledent, visio.link/bredent) were selected for conditioning the surface, while no conditioned specimens acted as control groups. Specimens were thereafter repaired using two direct resin composites (Arabesk Top and GrandioSo, VOCO), stored for 24 h at 37 °C in H2O, and thermally aged for 10,000 cycles (5 °C/55 °C; n = 15/subgroup). TBS and failure types were determined and evaluated with four- and one-way ANOVA and χ
2 test (p < 0.05).
Results
The highest influence on TBS was exerted by the conditioning method (partial eta-squared (η
P
2) = 0.273, p < 0.05), followed by the resin composite repair (η
P
2 = 0.07, p < 0.05) and the surface pretreatment method (η
P
2 = 0.032, p < 0.05), while an acid contamination after surface pretreatment was insignificant (p = 0.154).
Conclusions
Air abrasion produced superior TBS compared to grinding of the surface with Al2O3 prior to repair. The tested universal adhesives proved to be effective intermediate agents for repairing aged CAD/CAM RNC, while visio.link and Scotchbond Universal performed slightly better than Futurabond U.
Clinical relevance
Phosphoric acid or water contamination of the air-abraded surface does not affect the repair bond strength.
