    Study Notes

    Introduction

    • Clinical success of resin-bonded ceramic restorations depends on ceramic material properties, tooth prep design, impression technique, fabrication process, definitive insertion protocol, and bonding protocol.

    Definitions

    • Adhesion is the attraction between unlike molecules
    • Cohesion is the attraction between like molecules
    • An adhesive is a material that causes adhesion or bonding
    • An adherend is the material to which the adhesive is applied

    Importance of Bonding

    • Bonding systems provide resistance to separation of adherend substrate
    • Bonding systems distribute stress
    • Bonding systems seal dentin and enamel

    Bonding Principles in Dental Ceramics

    • Strong and durable bond between ceramic materials and the tooth or prosthetic substrate is crucial
    • Bonding is crucial for longevity, aesthetic quality, and function

    Bonding to Silica-Based Ceramics

    • HF Acid Etching: hydrofluoric acid (HF) selectively dissolves the glass phase to expose silicon dioxide (SiO2) and create microretentive surfaces
    • Surface Topography: acid etching increases roughness, facilitating micromechanical interlocking with resin cements

    Silane Coupling Agent

    • A silane coupling agent is applied after etching to form chemical bonds between ceramic surface and resin cements.
    • Silane enhances adhesion as it can create a covalent bond with both the ceramic and the resin

    Silane Coupling Agent - Chemical Reaction

    • Surface Activation (Etching) of the Glass Ceramic: Etching with HF creates microporosities and exposes silica (SiO2)
    • Application of Silane Coupling Agent: Silane is a bifunctional molecule with Silicon (Si) and Methacrylate groups, allowing it to bond to the ceramic and resin
    • Hydrolysis of Silane Molecule: Silane requires moisture to hydrolyze and activate
    • Condensation Reaction with Ceramic Surface: Silane reacts with the ceramic to form a durable chemical bond
    • Polymerization with Resin Cement: Silane forms a bond with the resin

    Resin Cement Selection and Properties

    • Light-Cure Resin Cements: provide extended working time and ease of removal
    • Dual-Cure Resin Cements: combine light-activated and chemical-activated systems, achieving high degrees of polymerization while providing a longer working time

    Bonding Protocols

    • Total-etch systems provide stronger bonds and reduce microleakage

    Microstructure and Mechanical Properties

    • The microstructure of feldspathic ceramics influences their mechanical performance, particularly the balance between the glass and crystalline phases.
    • Higher glass content generally enhances translucency but can compromise strength.

    Acid Etching Chemistry

    • HF etching involves the reaction of HF with silica to form soluble silicates
    • Topographic Changes: Dissolution of the glass phase results in increased surface roughness

    Bonding to Leucite-Reinforced Glass Ceramics

    • Composition and Properties: Leucite-reinforced feldspathic ceramics contain up to 45% leucite, which enhances the material's mechanical properties.
    • Flexural Strength: Leucite-reinforced exhibits medium flexural strength values of up to 140 MPa, exceeding traditional feldspathic ceramics.
    • Crack Propagation Resistance: Leucite acts as a crack reflector, redirecting and mitigating crack propagation, enhancing the durability of the ceramic.

    Bonding to Lithium Silicate Ceramics

    • Resin Cement Performance: Various resin cements produce long-term durable bonds
    • Mechanical Properties: Leucite and lithium disilicate enhance the ceramic's ability to withstand stress and resist fracture.
    • HF Acid Etching Chemistry: HF selectively dissolves glass phase and increases surface area and roughness
    • Silane Chemistry: Silane coupling agents form siloxane bonds with etched ceramic surface

    Bonding to Polymer-Infiltrated Ceramic Network (PICN) Materials

    • PICN is a dual-network structure with a ceramic skeleton and infiltrated resin phase
    • PICN materials combine ceramics and polymers, featuring an interpenetrating network made of aluminum oxide-enriched leucite and urethane dimethacrylate and triethylene glycol dimethacrylate

    Bonding to Metal-Oxide Ceramics

    • Mechanical Properties: 3Y-TZP exhibits the highest fracture toughness and flexural strength among zirconia generations
    • Transformation Toughening: The tetragonal-to-monoclinic phase transformation enhances fracture toughness

    Bonding Procedures

    • Surface Pretreatment Methods: effective techniques include APA, tribochemical silica coating, low-fusion porcelain application, and laser irradiation
    • MDP Primers: application of 10-methacryloyloxydecyl dihydrogen phosphate (MDP) or phosphate ester monomer-based primers is essential for durable resin bonds
    • Preferred Protocol:
      • APC Bonding Concept: APA with alumina or silica-coated particles, followed by priming with an MDP-based primer, followed by application of dual or self-cure composite resin cement

    Considerations for Recent Zirconia Generations

    • High-Translucent Zirconia: 4Y-TZP and 5Y-TZP zirconia generations enhance esthetics by increasing yttria content
    • Bonding Protocols: bonding methods for 3Y-TZP also apply, but surface pretreatment is critical to avoid compromising mechanical properties
    • Studies indicate that surface treatments do not adversely affect the flexural strength of newer zirconia generations

    Cleaning and Contamination Prevention

    • Importance of Isolation: proper isolation during resin bonding is crucial to prevent contamination, which can compromise bond strength
    • Cleaning Methods:
      • Recommended Solutions: Alcohol solutions and phosphoric acid
      • Effective Decontamination: APA with alumina particles
      • Commercial Cleaning agents: Ivoclean, Katana Cleaner, and ZirClean effectively remove contaminants and proteins
