Abstract:
The purpose of this study was to evaluate the effectiveness of silane on the surface treatment of silica-based ceramic when silane is incorporated into the universal adhesive versus using silane separately from the adhesive. The materials used in this study are as follows: 1) All-Bond Universal, 2) Silane mixed with All-Bond Universal, 3) Porcelain primer (as a regular silane primer), and 4) Scoth Bond Universal (which is a commercial silane-containing universal adhesive). IPS e-Max press, a lithium disilicate, was used as the silica-based ceramic. Contact angle test was measured to evaluate hydrophobicity on a silica-based ceramic surface. Shear bond strength was tested by universal testing machine. The surfaces of the specimen were polished in order to eliminate any bias from micro mechanical retention due to an uneven surface. The results indicated that only silane applied to the silica based ceramic surface resulted in highest contact angle and shear bond strength. Using silane separately and using silane incorporated into the universal adhesive (contains hydrophobic resin) resulted in different performance on silica-based ceramic. Therefore, it was concluded that the silane should be used separately from a hydrophobic resin monomer in order to maximize its porcelain surface treatment function.
