Internal coating of zirconia restoration with silica-based ceramic improves bonding of resin cement to dental zirconia ceramic.

Biomed Mater Eng. 2010; 20(2): 77-87Kitayama S, Nikaido T, Ikeda M, Alireza S, Miura H, Tagami J Resin bonding to zirconia ceramic cannot be established by standard methods that are utilized for conventional silica-based dental ceramics. This study was aimed to examine the tensile bond strength of resin cement to zirconia ceramic using a new … Continue reading »

Effect of primer treatment on bonding of resin cements to zirconia ceramic.

Dent Mater. 2010 May; 26(5): 426-32Kitayama S, Nikaido T, Takahashi R, Zhu L, Ikeda M, Foxton RM, Sadr A, Tagami J To evaluate and compare bond strengths of different primers and resin cements to silica-based and zirconia ceramics.Silica-based and zirconia ceramic specimens were ground flat with #600-grit SiC paper. The ceramic surfaces were airborne-particle abraded … Continue reading »
