Effect of three-liquid bonding agents on bond strength to a machine-milled ceramic material.
This study determined the bond strengths of porcelain bonding systems joined to a ceramic material, with the aim of evaluating the effect of a catalyst for silane coupling as well as that of initiators for bonding agents. Two sizes of specimen were cut from ceramic blocks (Cerec 2 Vitablocs Mark II) and then primed with either a three-liquid self-curing bonding agent (Clearfil Porcelain Bond, CPB), a three-liquid dual-activated bonding agent (Clapearl Bonding Agent, CBA), or their components. Unprimed specimens were also used as controls. After conditioning, the two different sized plates were bonded together with a dual-cured luting agent (Clapearl DC). The specimens were stored in 37 degrees C water for 24 h and shear bond strengths were determined. Shear testing revealed that the greatest bond strength was generated in the group consisting of ceramic material primed with CBA and exposed for 20 s prior to luting. Bond strengths of the CPB-primed group and the CBA-primed group without pre-exposure were comparable, whereas the remaining groups resulted in significantly lower bond strengths than the other three groups. The priming effect was greatly enhanced when a catalyst was used with the silane coupler as compared with the application of silane alone. The results suggest that incorporation of an initiator and a catalyst for silane coupling into the bonding agent reciprocally enhances bonding between the luting agent and the ceramic material.
