Li X, Liang S, Inokoshi M, Zhao S, Hong G, Yao C, Huang C. Different surface treatments and adhesive monomers for zirconia-resin bonds: A systematic review and network meta-analysis. JAPANESE DENTAL SCIENCE REVIEW 2024; 60:175-189. [PMID: 38938474 PMCID: PMC11208804 DOI: 10.1016/j.jdsr.2024.05.004] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 01/06/2024] [Revised: 05/03/2024] [Accepted: 05/15/2024] [Indexed: 06/29/2024] Open
Abstract
This review examined the efficacy of surface treatments and adhesive monomers for enhancing zirconia-resin bond strength. A comprehensive literature search in PubMed, Embase, Web of Science, Scopus, and the Cochrane Library yielded relevant in vitro studies. Employing pairwise and Bayesian network meta-analyses, 77 articles meeting inclusion criteria were analyzed. Gas plasma was found to be ineffective, while treatments including air abrasion, silica coating, laser, selective infiltration etching, hot etching showed varied effectiveness. Air abrasion with finer particles (25-53 µm) showed higher immediate bond strength than larger particles (110-150 µm), with no significant difference post-aging. The Rocatec silica coating system outperformed the CoJet system in both immediate and long-term bond strength. Adhesives containing 10-methacryloyloxydecyl dihydrogen phosphate (10-MDP) were superior to other acidic monomers. The application of 2-hydroxyethyl methacrylate and silane did not improve bonding performance. Notably, 91.2 % of bonds weakened after aging, but this effect was less pronounced with air abrasion or silica coating. The findings highlight the effectiveness of air abrasion, silica coating, selective infiltration etching, hot etching, and laser treatment in improving bond strength, with 10-MDP in bonding agents enhancing zirconia bonding efficacy.

Ma Y, Wang H, Xiang Y, Li M, Shen D, Zhang S, Zhou X, An J, Shi Y, Fu B. The effects of optimized microstructured surfaces on bond strength and durability of NPJ-printed zirconia. Dent Mater 2024:S0109-5641(24)00285-9. [PMID: 39322445 DOI: 10.1016/j.dental.2024.09.016] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 01/17/2024] [Revised: 08/16/2024] [Accepted: 09/20/2024] [Indexed: 09/27/2024]
Abstract
OBJECTIVES This study was to investigate the effects of optimized microstructured surfaces on bond strength and bond durability of the latest nanoparticle jetting (NPJ)-printed zirconia. METHODS Zirconia microstructured surfaces with different geometries and void volume were analyzed through three-dimensional finite element analysis for surface micromorphology optimization. Zirconia disks and cylinders were additively manufactured by an NPJ 3D printer (N = 128). They were randomly divided into four groups based on surface micromorphology optimization and airborne-particle abrasion (APA) treatment before they were bonded using 10-methacryloloxydecyl dihydrogen phosphate (MDP) containing resin cement (Clearfil SA luting cement). The shear bond strengths (SBSs) were tested before and after 10,000 thermocycles and were analyzed by one-way ANOVA analysis. Failure modes were determined by optical microscopy. Zirconia surfaces were analyzed with X-ray diffraction, scanning electron microscopy, and three-dimensional interference microscopy. RESULTS The optimized microstructured surface was characterized by circular microstructures with 60 % void volume, about 20 µm of depths, about 10 µm of undercuts, and consistent beam widths. The optimized microstructured surface combined with APA treatment and MDP-containing resin cement possessed the highest SBSs both before and after thermocycling aging (P<0.05). The greater reductions of zirconia bond strengths occurred when the zirconia were not treated with APA (P<0.05). SIGNIFICANCE The optimized microstructured zirconia surface with circular microstructures and 60 % void volume fabricated by the latest NPJ printing technology could greatly enhance the zirconia bond strength and durability in combination with APA treatment and application of MDP-containing resin cement, which might be promising for adhesively bonded indirect restorations of NPJ-printed zirconia.

Abstract
STATEMENT OF PROBLEM While repurposing waste materials into zirconia blocks presents a promising avenue, uncertainty remains regarding whether the bonding properties of recycled zirconia align with those of commercially available zirconia. PURPOSE The purpose of this in vitro study was to evaluate the bonding affinity and durability of composite resin to recycled zirconia. MATERIAL AND METHODS A series of processing steps were performed with recycled zirconia residuals (Lava Plus; 3M Oral Care), including pulverization, sieving, heating, compaction, isostatic pressing, and presintering. The presintered blocks of recycled zirconia (Group R) and commercially available zirconia (Group C) were sectioned and sintered to create test specimens (10×10×1.5 mm). After polishing and airborne-particle abrasion, specimens within each group were bonded to composite resin cylinders using a resin cement (Multilink Speed; Ivoclar AG). The specimens were then divided into 3 subgroups for shear bond strength (SBS) testing: no further treatment, 10 000 thermocycles, and 30 000 thermocycles (n=10). X-ray diffraction (XRD), scanning electron microscopy (SEM), energy dispersive X-ray spectrometry (EDS), surface roughness, and contact angle were used to analyze the surface physicochemical differences between Groups C and R. Data were analyzed with 2-way ANOVA followed by the Tukey post hoc test for SBS values, Pearson chi-squared test for failure modes, and independent t test for grain size, surface roughness, and wettability (α=.05). RESULTS No significant difference was found in the SBS values between Group R and Group C (P=.403), while thermocycling significantly affected the SBS values (P<.05). Group R showed significantly greater Ra, Rz, and Rq values (P<.05) than did Group C. SEM analysis revealed that Group R exhibited more prominent grooves than Group C, while the XRD and EDS patterns exhibited similarities in both the crystalline phase and elemental composition. No significant difference was observed in the water contact angle between the 2 groups (P=.196). CONCLUSIONS The bonding protocol established for commercially available zirconia was comparable with that of recycled zirconia, but both decreased after thermocycling. The recycling process did not affect the crystalline phase or elemental composition of the zirconia, but it induced alterations in the surface roughness.

Abstract
PURPOSE Polyetheretherketone (PEEK) is a new polymeric material that has received significant attention in dentistry because of its mechanical properties, biocompatibility, and aesthetics. However, the bonding performance of PEEK to other materials is not preferable. This study aimed to analyze the variations in the surface characteristics of PEEK under the chemical action of primers containing different functional monomers or polymers and to evaluate the bonding performance of PEEK and dental cement. METHODS Disk-shaped PEEK samples were prepared by dental milling, blasting with alumina oxide, and covering with primers containing functional monomers or polymers. The surface characteristics of the samples were analyzed by microscopy and spectroscopy. The shear bond strength (SBS) between PEEK and dental cement, with and without thermocycling, was tested using a universal testing machine. Finally, the data were statistically analyzed and compared. RESULTS Functional monomers or polymers were successfully bonded to the surface of PEEK. This treatment significantly improved its hydrophilicity and surface free energy (P < 0.05). The primer containing pentaerythritol triacrylate had the highest SBS without thermocycling (13.89 MPa). Meanwhile, the primers containing urethane dimethacrylate (UDMA) and methyl methacrylate (MMA) (abbreviated as the HC group) showed the highest SBS and lowest reduction (25.51%) after thermocycling. Notably, all the testing groups achieved the ISO10477 standard of 5 MPa. After thermocycling, adhesive failure accounted for the largest proportion of failures in all the groups except the HC group. CONCLUSIONS The chemical priming treatment can significantly improve the SBS of PEEK and dental cement. Moreover, a primer containing both UDMA and MMA can provide improved bonding for PEEK materials.

J Dent Sci 2024; 19:32-38. [PMID: 38303863 PMCID: PMC10829665 DOI: 10.1016/j.jds.2023.06.005] [Citation(s) in RCA: 2] [Impact Index Per Article: 2.0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 05/16/2023] [Revised: 06/08/2023] [Indexed: 02/03/2024] Open
Abstract
Background/purpose Polyetheretherketone (PEEK) is a highly sought-after thermoplastic due to its exceptional mechanical properties and biocompatibility. However, bonding PEEK to indirect composite resin (ICR) or denture-based resin (DBR) can be challenging. Laser engraving technology has shown potential to improve bonding for other materials; thus, this study aims to evaluate its effectiveness for PEEK. Materials and methods The experiment involved preparing ingot-shaped PEEK samples, which were then categorized into four groups based on the treatment method employed: without treatment, air abrasion, sulfuric acid etching, and laser engraving (LS). Subsequently, the samples were bonded to ICR or DBR, and their shear bond strength (SBS) was tested with or without thermocycling using a universal testing machine. Furthermore, the failure mode was observed, with statistical analyses conducted to compare the results. Results The grid-like microslit structure of LS group displayed the highest SBS for bonding PEEK to ICR or DBR (P < 0.05). During the bonding of PEEK to ICR, resin residue and penetration into the microslits were frequently observed in the LS group, indicating cohesive failure. However, when PEEK was bonded to DBR, mixture failure was frequently observed without thermocycling. After thermocycling, only the LS group showed cohesive failure, while the majority of specimens exhibited mixture failure. Conclusion Laser engraving significantly improves the SBS between PEEK and both ICR and DBR. Furthermore, it was observed that resin had penetrated the microslits, indicating that laser engraving has great potential as a surface treatment method.

Abstract
The present study systematically reviewed the literature regarding the bond strength durability of zirconia ceramics to resin-based luting cements after application of different bonding protocols and aging conditions. Electronic searches in PubMed, Scopus, and Web of Science databases were performed for relevant literature published between January 1st 2015 and November 15th 2022. Ninety-three (93) English language in-vitro studies were included. The percentage of the mean bond strength change was recorded prior to and after artificial aging, and the weighted mean values and 95% confidence intervals were calculated. Bonding protocols were classified based on the combination of MDP/non-MDP containing cement/primer and surface pretreatment, as well as the level of artificial aging performed. Alumina sandblasting (SA) was identified as the most frequently used surface pre-treatment while an insufficient number of studies was identified for each category of alternative surface treatments. The combination of MDP cement with tribochemical silica coating (TSC) or SA yielded more durable results after aging, while the application of SA and TSC improved bond durability when a non-MDP cement and a non-MDP primer were used. TSC may lead to increased bond durability compared to SA, whereas MDP cements may act similarly when combined with SA or TSC.

Ultrashort pulse laser patterning of zirconia (3Y-TZP) for enhanced adhesion to resin-matrix cements used in dentistry: An integrative review. J Mech Behav Biomed Mater 2023; 143:105943.

Abstract
Surface modification of yttria-stabilized tetragonal zirconia polycrystals (Y-TZP) using lasers for adhesion enhancement with resin-matrix cement has been increasingly explored. However, Y-TZP is chemically inert and non-reactive, demanding surface modification using alternative approaches to enhance its bond strength to resin-matrix cements. The main aim of this study was to conduct an integrative review on the influence of ultrashort pulse laser patterning of zirconia (3Y-TZP) for enhanced bonding to resin-matrix cements. An electronic search was performed on web of science, SCOPUS, Pubmed/Medline, Google Scholar and EMBASE using a combination of the following search items: zirconia, 3Y-TZP, surface modification, laser surface treatment, AND laser, ultrashortpulse laser, bonding, adhesion, and resin cement. Articles published in the English language, up to January 2022, were included regarding the influence of surface patterning on bond strength of Y-TZP to resin-matrix cements. Out of the 12 studies selected for the present review 10 studies assessed femtosecond lasers while 2 studies assessed picosecond lasers. Ultrashort pulsed laser surface patterning successfully produced different surface morphological aspects without damaging the bulk properties of zirconia. Contrarily, defects such as micro-cracks occurs after surface modification using traditional methods such as grit-blasting or long-pulsed laser patterning. Ultrashort pulsed laser surface patterning increase bond strength of zirconia to resin-matrix cements and therefore such alternative physical method should be considered in dentistry. Also, surface defects were avoided using ultrashort pulsed laser surface patterning, which become the major advantage when compared with traditional physical methods or long pulse laser patterning.

Abstract
In recent years, the application of lasers for modifying the surface topography of dental biomaterials has received increased attention. This review paper aims to provide an overview of the current status on the utilization of lasers as a potential tool for surface modification of dental biomaterials such as implants, ceramics, and other materials used for restorative purposes. A literature search was done for articles related to the use of lasers for surface modification of dental biomaterials in English language published between October 2000 and March 2023 in Scopus, Pubmed and web of science, and relevant articles were reviewed. Lasers have been mainly used for surface modification of implant materials (71%), especially titanium and its alloys, to promote osseointegration. In recent years, laser texturing has also emerged as a promising technique to reduce bacterial adhesion on titanium implant surfaces. Currently, lasers are being widely used for surface modifications to improve osseointegration and reduce peri-implant inflammation of ceramic implants and to enhance the retention of ceramic restorations to the tooth. The studies considered in this review seem to suggest laser texturing to be more proficient than the conventional methods of surface modification. Lasers can alter the surface characteristics of dental biomaterials by creating innovative surface patterns without significantly affecting their bulk properties. With advances in laser technology and availability of newer wavelengths and modes, laser as a tool for surface modification of dental biomaterials is a promising field, with excellent potential for future research.

Surface modification of zirconia or lithium disilicate-reinforced glass ceramic by laser texturing to increase the adhesion of prosthetic surfaces to resin cements: an integrative review. Clin Oral Investig 2023:10.1007/s00784-023-05016-z.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE The purpose of this study was to perform an integrative review on laser texturing the inner surface of lithium disilicate-reinforced glass ceramic or zirconia to increase their bond strength to resin-matrix cements. MATERIALS AND METHOD A bibliographic review was performed on PubMed using the following search terms: "zirconia" OR "lithium disilicate" AND "laser" AND "surface" OR "roughness" AND "bond strength" AND "luting agent" OR "resin cement." Studies published in English language until March 15, 2023, were selected regarding the purpose of this study. RESULTS A total of fifty-six studies were identified althoug thirteen studies were selected. The findings revealed that zirconia surfaces were significantly modified after laser irradiation resulting in macro-scale aligned retentive regions with depth values ranging from 50 to 120 µm. Average roughness values of laser-textured zirconia by Er,Cr:YSGG laser (~ 0.83 µm) were quite similar when compared to grit-blasted zirconia surfaces (~ 0.9 µm) although roughness increased up to 2.4 µm depending on the laser type and parameters. Lithium disilicate-reinforced glass ceramics textured with Er:YAG revealed an average roughness of around 3.5 µm while surfaces textured using Nd:YAG laser revealed an average roughness of 2.69 µm; that was quite similar to the roughness values recorded for etched surfaces (2.64 µm). The shear bond strength (SBS) values of zirconia surfaces textured on Nd:YVO4 laser irradiation were slightly higher (~ 33.5 MPa) than those recorded for grit-blasted zirconia surfaces (28 MPa). Laser-textured zirconia surfaces on CO2 laser revealed higher SBS values (18.1 ±0.8 MPa) than those (9.1 ± 0.56 MPa) recorded for untreated zirconia surfaces. On lithium disilicate-reinforced glass ceramics, higher SBS values to resin-matrix cements were recorded for specimens textured with a combination of fractional CO2 laser irradiation and HF acid etching (~ 22-24 MPa) when compared with grit-blasted specimens (12.2 MPa). Another study revealed SBS values at around 27.5 MPa for Er:YAG-textured lithium disilicate-reinforced glass ceramics to resin-matrix cements. CONCLUSIONS The laser irradiation at high power increases the roughness of the inner surface of lithium disilicate-reinforced glass ceramic or zirconia leading to an enhanced bond strength to resin-matrix cements. Thus, the laser type and irradiation parameters can be adjusted to enhance the macro- and micro-scale retention of zirconia and glass ceramic surfaces to resin-matrix cements. CLINICAL RELEVANCE Alternative methods for surface modification of lithium disilicate-reinforced glass ceramic and zirconia surfaces have been assessed to provide proper morphological aspects for enhanced adhesion to resin-matrix cements. An increase in the bond strength of glass ceramics or zirconia to resin-matrix cements can improve the long-term performance of cemented prosthetic structures in the oral cavity.

Liang S, Yuan F, Chen H, Sun Y. Digital evaluation of the effect of nanosilica-lithium spray coating on the internal and marginal fit of high translucent zirconia crowns. J Dent 2023; 132:104503. [PMID: 37001793 DOI: 10.1016/j.jdent.2023.104503] [Citation(s) in RCA: 2] [Impact Index Per Article: 2.0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 10/12/2022] [Revised: 03/13/2023] [Accepted: 03/28/2023] [Indexed: 03/31/2023] Open
Abstract
OBJECTIVES To evaluate the effect of a nanosilica-lithium spray coating on the internal and marginal fit of high translucent zirconia crowns using a digital evaluation method. METHODS A three-dimensional analysis model of a zirconia abutment was digitally scanned using a dental scanner, and 30 monolithic high translucent zirconia crowns were designed and fabricated. They were divided into groups (n = 10) according to the surface treatment method: (1) no treatment: as-sintered zirconia; (2) airborne-particle abrasion with 50 μm Al2O3 particles; and (3) nanosilica-lithium spray coating. Three-dimensional data for the abutment, crown, and crown seated on the abutment were obtained using a dental scanner. The three-dimensional seated fit between the crown and abutment was reconstructed using registration technology, and a three-dimensional (3D) deviation analysis was used to evaluate the effect of different modification methods on the internal and marginal fit of the crowns using root mean square (RMS) values. RESULTS The 3D deviation analysis of all groups conformed to a normal distribution (P > 0.05), and the variance was homogeneous (P > 0.05). The different surface treatments had no significant effect on the RMS values in the occlusal, axial, and marginal regions of the high translucent zirconia crowns (P > 0.05). CONCLUSIONS Nanosilica-lithium spray coating for the modification of as-sintered zirconia is clinically feasible and does not affect the internal or marginal fit of high translucent zirconia crowns. CLINICAL SIGNIFICANCE Nanosilica-lithium spray coating does not affect the adaptation of zirconia crowns and is a clinically feasible surface treatment method for zirconia. It is unnecessary to add the setting values of the internal and marginal fit when fabricating nanosilica-lithium-sprayed zirconia crowns.

Abstract
This study investigates the effect of acid etching treatment on the surface microstructure, surface roughness, and surface contact angle of zirconia and compares the effects of air abrasion, different etching times, and aging on the shear bond strength (SBS) of resin cement on the zirconia surface. 480 specimens (9 × 10 × 10 mm) were divided into as-sintered and air-abraded groups, and each group was further subdivided into six groups based on etching time (0, 3, 5, 10, 20, and 30 min). The etching solution comprised hydrofluoric acid 25%, sulfuric acid 16%, hydrogen peroxide, methyl alcohol, and purified water. The shear bond strength (SBS), scanning electron microscopy, surface roughness, contact angle, and failure mode were measured. The results indicated that the mean SBS values increased and decreased significantly when the etching times increased to 20 min and 30 min, respectively, in both groups. Further, SBS after aging was lower than that before aging in all groups. Sandblasting, etching time, and aging all showed significant effects (p < 0.001) in the three-way analysis of variance. In addition, the surface roughness increased and the contact angle decreased significantly with an increase in etching time. Thus, the acid-etching treatment induced significant changes on the zirconia surface and increased the SBS of the resin cement. The results of this in vitro study suggest that acid etching is a promising alternative for zirconia surface treatment.

Abstract
The aim of this work was to perform an integrative literature review on the influence of laser irradiation on zirconia implants to enhance surface topographic aspects and the biological response for osseointegration. An electronic search was carried out on the PubMed database using the following search terms: "zirconia" AND "laser" AND "surface modification" OR "surface treatment" AND "dental implants" OR "bone" OR "osteoblast" OR "osseointegration." Of the identified articles, 12 studies were selected in this review. Results reported that the laser irradiation was capable of promoting changes on the zirconia surfaces regarding topographic aspects, roughness, and wettability. An increase in roughness was recorded at micro- and nano-scale and it resulted in an enhanced wettability and biological response. Also, adhesion, spreading, proliferation, and differentiation of osteogenic cells were also enhanced after laser irradiation mainly by using a femtosecond laser at 10nJ and 80 MHz. After 3 months of osseointegration, in vivo studies in dogs revealed a similar average percentage of bone-to-implant contact (BIC) on zirconia surfaces (around 47.9 ± 16%) when compared to standard titanium surfaces (61.73 ±16.27%), denoting that there is no significant difference between such different materials. The laser approach revealed several parameters that can be used for zirconia surface modification such as irradiation intensity, time, and frequency. Laser irradiation parameters can be optimized and well-controlled to reach desirable surface morphologic aspects and biological response concerning the osseointegration process.

Abstract
Introduction: This study was conducted to assess the impact of nanosecond and femtosecond lasers on shear bond strength at the zirconia - veneering ceramic juncture. Materials and Methods: The first 60 samples of partially sintered zirconia cylindrical discs measuring 7 mm diameter and 4 mm height were milled and sintered. Then they were randomly divided into three groups namely group C (control, n=10), group N (Nd: YAG laser, n=10), and group T (Ti: sapphire laser n=40) which was further divided based on the duration of laser irradiation, into 4 subgroups (n=10 each) which were 30 seconds, 1 minute, 2 minutes and 3 minutes. Surface treatment was done on sintered zirconia discs based on the group. Following the treatment, the discs were ultrasonically cleaned followed by liner application (IPS Emax Zirliner, Ivoclar-Vivadent) and veneer ceramic layering (IPS e.max Ceram, Ivoclar-Vivadent) of 1.5 mm height. Each sample underwent shear stress in the universal test machine on the mounting jig, and bond strength was evaluated. Data were assessed using ANOVA followed by Tukey’s post hoc multiple comparison analyses. Results: According to one-way ANOVA, there was a significant difference in shear bond strength between the groups. Tukey’s post hoc pair wise comparison test showed a significant difference (P value=0.001) in shear bond strength of all pairs except group C and group N. The results of repeated measures, ANOVA (related and dependent groups) and Tukey’s multiple pair wise comparison test showed that there was a significant difference (P value=0.001) in shear bond strength at 30 seconds and all other groups. Conclusion: Ti: sapphire laser irradiation for 30 seconds can be used as potential surface treatment to increase shear bond strength at the zirconia-veneering ceramic juncture.

Abstract
PURPOSE Screw-retained implant crowns used as dental implants comprise a zirconia coping and titanium base bonded using resin cement. These devices are prone to debonding failures. This study investigated the bond characteristics of implant materials based on shear bond strength (SBS) and surface characteristics. METHODS Chemically pure (CP) titanium grade-4 (Ti), Ti-6Al-4V alloy (Ti-6Al-4V), and tetragonal polycrystalline zirconia (zirconia) were evaluated as adherent materials. Plates of each material were polished, primed for the respective resin cements, and cemented using either methyl methacrylate-based resin cement (Super-Bond) or composite-based resin cement (Panavia). The cemented samples were subjected to 10,000 thermocycles alternating between 5 and 55 °C, and the SBS were obtained before and after thermocycling. The sample surfaces were characterized based on surface observations, roughness, and free energy (SFE). RESULTS The SBSs of all materials bonded using Panavia were significantly compromised during thermocycling and reached zero. Although the SBSs of Ti and Ti-6Al-4V bonded using Super-Bond were not significantly affected by thermocycling, those of zirconia decreased significantly. The bond durability between zirconia and Super-Bond was improved via alumina air-abrasion, which caused no significant loss of SBS after thermocycling. Surface analyses of the air-abraded zirconia validated these results and confirmed that its surface roughness and SFE were significantly increased. CONCLUSIONS The bond durability between resin cement and zirconia was lower than that between Ti and Ti-6Al-4V. The alumina air-abrasion pretreatment of zirconia improved the SFE and surface roughness, thereby enhancing bond durability.

Abstract
Monolithic zirconia crowns bonded to zirconia abutments have become more commonly used in the construction of cement-retained implant superstructures. The present study aimed to examine the effects of laser surface treatments on the bond strength of two resin cements to zirconia. Three types of surfaces were examined: untreated, alumina blasted, and ytterbium laser treated; and two types of resin cements: 4-META/MMA-TBB resin cement and composite resin cement. Half of the specimens were subjected to a thermocycling process. Subsequently, a shear bond test was carried out. In addition, surface roughness was measured for each surface type. The results showed that laser treatment increased zirconia surface roughness and that laser treatment significantly increased shear bond strength after the thermocycling of both cement types compared to no treatment. Our experimental results suggested that ytterbium laser surface treatment of zirconia increased the bond strength of resin cements.

Increasing dental zirconia micro-retentive aspect through ultra-short pulsed laser microstructuring: study on flexural strength and crystal phase characterization. Clin Oral Investig 2021; 26:939-955. [PMID: 34402980 PMCID: PMC8791917 DOI: 10.1007/s00784-021-04077-2] [Citation(s) in RCA: 1] [Impact Index Per Article: 0.3] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 01/22/2021] [Accepted: 07/10/2021] [Indexed: 11/13/2022]
Abstract
Objectives Although ultra-short pulsed laser (USPL) microstructuring has previously improved zirconia bond-strength, it is yet unclear how different laser-machined surface microstructures and patterns may influence the material’s mechanical properties. Therefore, the aim of this study was to assess the flexural strength of zirconia after different USPL settings creating three different geometrical patterns with structures in micrometer scale. Methods One hundred sixty zirconia bars (3Y-TZP, 21 × 4 × 2.1 mm) were prepared and randomly divided into five groups (n = 32): no surface treatment (negative control-NC); sandblasting with Al2O3 (SB); and three laser groups irradiated with USPL (Nd:YVO4/1064 nm/2-34 J/cm2/12 ps): crossed-lines (LC), random-hatching (LR), and parallel-waves (LW). Bars were subjected to a four-point flexural test (1 mm/min) and crystal phase content changes were identified by X-ray diffraction. Surface roughness and topography were analyzed through 3D-laser-profilometry and SEM. Data were analyzed with parametric tests for roughness and Weibull for flexural strength (α = 5%). Results LR (Mean[95%CI]: 852.0 MPa, [809.2–894.7]) was the only group that did not show a significantly different flexural strength than NC (819.8 MPa, [796.6–842.9]), (p > 0.05). All laser groups exhibited higher Weibull moduli than NC and SB, indicating higher reliability and homogeneity of the strength data. An increase of monoclinic phase peak was only observed for SB. Conclusion In conclusion, USPL created predictable, homogeneous, highly reproducible, and accurate surface microstructures on zirconia ceramic. The laser-settings of random-hatching (12 ps pulses) increased 3Y-TZP average surface roughness similarly to SB, while not causing deleterious crystal phase transformation or loss of flexural strength of the material. Furthermore, it has increased the Weibull modulus and consequently material’s reliability. Clinical significance Picosecond laser microstructuring (LR conditions) of 3Y-TZP ceramic does not decrease its flexural strength, while increasing materials realiability and creating highly reproducible and accurate microstructures. These features may be of interest both for improving clinical survival of zirconia restorations as well as enhancing longevity of zirconia implants.

Abstract
Conventional bonding technology suitable for silica-based ceramics is not applicable to zirconia, due to its polycrystalline phase composition, chemical stability, and acid corrosion resistance. The development of an effective treatment to improve its surface roughness and mechanical properties remains an unresolved problem. Therefore, to solve this problem, this in vitro study evaluated the changes in surface morphology and flexural strength of translucent monolithic zirconia surfaces treated with femtosecond laser technology. As-sintered translucent zirconia specimens were subjected to airborne particle abrasion and femtosecond laser treatments, while control group specimens received no treatment. After treatment, the roughness and morphology of the treated zirconia surfaces were examined. The flexural strength and X-ray diffraction of the treated specimens were measured and analyzed. Statistical inferential analysis included one-way analysis of variance at a set significance level of 5%. The surface roughness after femtosecond laser treatment was significantly improved when compared with the control group and the group that received the airborne particle abrasion treatment (p < 0.05). In comparison with the airborne particle abrasion group, the flexural strength of the group that received the femtosecond laser treatment was significantly improved (p < 0.05). The femtosecond laser approach using appropriate parameters enhanced the roughness of the zirconia without reducing its flexural strength; therefore, this approach offers potential for the treatment of zirconia surfaces.

Abstract
Laser surface texturing is widely explored for modifying the surface topography of various materials and thereby tuning their optical, tribological, biological, and other surface properties. In dentistry, improved osseointegration has been observed with laser textured titanium dental implants in clinical trials. Due to several limitations of titanium materials, dental implants made of zirconia-based ceramics are now considered as one of the best alternatives. Laser surface texturing of zirconia dental implants is therefore attracting increasing attention. However, due to the brittle nature of zirconia, as well as the metastable tetragonal ZrO2 phase, laser texturing in the case of zirconia is more challenging than in the case of titanium. Understanding these challenges requires different fields of expertise, including laser engineering, materials science, and dentistry. Even though much progress was made within each field of expertise, a comprehensive analysis of all the related factors is still missing. This review paper provides thus an overview of the common challenges and current status on the use of lasers for surface texturing of zirconia-based ceramics for dental applications, including texturing of zirconia implants for improving osseointegration, texturing of zirconia abutments for reducing peri-implant inflammation, and texturing of zirconia restorations for improving restoration retention by bonding.

Abstract
Ultra-short pulse laser interaction with diamond materials has attracted extensive interest in micro- and nano-machining, especially for the fabrication of micro tools, because of the straightforward method and high precision. Thanks to the development of chemical vapor deposition (CVD) technology, high-quality CVD diamonds are employed in more varieties of tools as performance-enhancing coatings. The purpose of the experiments reported here was to explore the machinability of CVD diamond coating under the irradiation of femtosecond (fs) pulsed laser. The factor-control approach was adopted to investigate the influence of scanning speed, single pulse energy and repetition rate on the surface quality and carbon phase transition of CVD diamond coating. The material removal rate and surface roughness were evaluated. The interaction mechanism of scanning speed, single pulse energy, and repetition rate were discussed, and the fs laser ablation threshold of CVD diamond coating was calculated. It was demonstrated that two ablation mechanisms (weak and intensive) were in existence as evidenced by the distinct surface morphologies induced under different processing conditions. A strong dependence on the variation of scanning speed and pulse energy is identified in the examination of surface roughness and removal rate. Lorentzian–Gaussian deconvolution of Raman spectra illustrates that fs laser irradiation yields a strong modification effect on the coating and release the compressive stress in it. Furthermore, a newly defined parameter referring to the fs laser energies applied to unit volume was introduced to depict the degree of ablation and the Taguchi method was used to figure out the significance of different parameters. The ablation threshold of CVD diamond coating at the effective pulses of 90 is calculated to be 0.138 J/cm2.
