Abstract
OBJECTIVES The objective of this study is to investigate the outcomes of clinically relevant laboratory studies regarding the cementation of implant-supported restorations over ti-bases. MATERIALS AND METHODS The present study has been conducted according to PRISMA statement. An electronic search was performed, including publications up to March 2024, to identify studies investigating the parameters affecting the cementation between ti-bases and CAD/CAM prostheses. An assessment of the internal validity was performed, using a custom-made risk of bias tool (QUIN). RESULTS From the included studies, 40.1% were reported on luting systems, 25% on ti-base surface treatment, 25% on restoration surface, 21.8% on restoration material, and 18.7% on ti-base height. The majority of the included studies were associated with a medium risk of bias. In the absence of micro-retentive features, air-abrasion of ti-bases with a minimum height of 3.5 mm can be beneficial for restoration's retention. The bonding performance can vary not only between different bonding systems but also for different applications within the same system, based on a restoration's material and surface treatment as well as on ti-base height and surface treatment. CONCLUSIONS The height of the ti-base seems to be the prevailing factor as it constitutes the prerequisite for other modifications of the bonding surfaces to have an advantageous effect. Since the parameters that can affect bonding performance between ti-base and restoration can interact with each other, it is important for the clinician to focus on verified bonding protocols.

Clin Implant Dent Relat Res 2024; 26:679-687. [PMID: 38680076 DOI: 10.1111/cid.13332] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 12/26/2023] [Revised: 04/05/2024] [Accepted: 04/08/2024] [Indexed: 05/01/2024]
Abstract
OBJECTIVE To investigate the effects of sterilization, conditioning method, and thermal aging on the retentive strength of two-piece zirconia abutments. MATERIALS AND METHODS In total, 128 stock zirconia abutments were divided into four groups (n = 32) according to the conditioning parameters: (A) air-abrasion using 50 μm alumina particles/1.0 bar, (B) 50 μm/2.0 bar, (C) 100 μm/1.0 bar, and (D) 100 μm/2.0 bar. All abutments were bonded onto titanium bases using DTK adhesive resin and stored in water bath (37°C) for 72 h. Each group was subdivided into two subgroups (n = 16), group 1 was disinfected, whereas group 2 followed disinfection and autoclave sterilization. Half of the specimens of each subgroup (n = 8) was directly subjected to the axial retention test (groups N), while the other half was first subjected to 150 days of thermocycling followed by retention test (groups T). Statistical analysis was performed with three-way ANOVA, additional statistical analysis was performed by using separate one-way ANOVAs followed by the Tukey's post-hoc test for post hoc pairwise comparisons among groups. RESULTS The highest median retention strength was recorded for group B2N (1390 N), whereas the lowest strength was recorded for group C1T (688 N). No significant interaction (p ≥ 0.05) was detected between the different variables; conditioning method, sterilization, and the thermal cycling regarding the effect on the resulting retention. However, the sterilization always showed a positive effect. Thermocycling presented an adversely significant effect only in the absence of sterilization (p < 0.05), with the exception of subgroups A. For the sterilized groups, thermocycling had no statistically significant effect on the retention. CONCLUSION Steam autoclaving increased the retention of hybrid zirconia abutments. DTK adhesive resin for two-piece zirconia abutments performed well after sterilization and thermocycling.

[PMID: 38734486 DOI: 10.1016/j.dental.2024.04.003] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 11/24/2023] [Revised: 04/17/2024] [Accepted: 04/17/2024] [Indexed: 05/13/2024]
Abstract
OBJECTIVES Part 1 of this study investigates the influence of zirconia types, chimney heights, and gingival heights on the strength of the zirconia-abutment-interface. Part 2 extends the analysis to include adhesive brands and macro-retentions. METHODS In Part 1, the study utilized three zirconia types (700 MPa, 1000 MPa, 1200 MPa) to fabricate 234 screw-retained zirconia crowns with varying chimney heights (3.5 mm, 4.1 mm, 5 mm) and gingival heights (0.65 mm, 1.2 mm, 3 mm) of the titanium abutments. All adherend surfaces underwent sandblasting with aluminum oxide before cementation with a specific resin cement. In Part 2, the investigation of 240 screw-retained zirconia crowns focused on a single zirconia type (1000 MPa) with chimney heights of 3.5 mm and 5 mm and a gingival height of 0.65 mm of the titanium abutments, cemented with three different resin cements. All adherent surfaces underwent sandblasting with aluminum oxide before cementation, whereas 120 out of 240 abutments received additional macro retentions. Storage in water at 37 °C for 24 h preceded the tensile test. RESULTS The study revealed a substantial impact of chimney height and zirconia type on the bond strength of the zirconia-abutment-interface. Neither adhesive brands nor macro retentions significantly impacted the bond strength. Fracture incidence was significantly influenced by gingival height and zirconia type in part 1, whereas in part 2 smaller chimney heights correlated with a higher fracture incidence. SIGNIFICANCE This study contributes insights into the complex interplay of factors influencing the zirconia-abutment-interface. The results provide a foundation for refining clinical approaches, emphasizing the importance of chimney height and zirconia type in achieving successful anterior gap implant restorations.

In vitro assessment of the effect of luting agents, abutment height, and fatigue on the retention of zirconia crowns luted to titanium base implant abutments. J Prosthet Dent 2023; 130:739.e1-739.e8. [PMID: 37684141 DOI: 10.1016/j.prosdent.2023.07.032] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 05/20/2023] [Revised: 07/27/2023] [Accepted: 07/31/2023] [Indexed: 09/10/2023]
Abstract
STATEMENT OF PROBLEM The bonding of implant-supported prostheses is determined by abutment material, convergence angle, height, surface treatment, and luting agents. However, studies evaluating the bonding of luting agents to titanium base abutments with different heights under fatigue conditions are scarce. PURPOSE The purpose of this in vitro study was to evaluate the retention of zirconia crowns bonded with different luting agents to titanium base abutments of different heights before and after fatigue testing. MATERIAL AND METHODS Zirconia crowns were designed, milled, and distributed into 4 experimental groups according to the luting agents (G-Multi Primer/G-Cem LinkForce [MP/GC] and Scotchbond Universal/RelyX Ultimate [SU/RU]) and titanium base abutment heights (2.5 mm and 4 mm) (n=10). Pull-out testing was performed in a universal testing machine at a crosshead speed of 1 mm/min until crown displacement. Fatigue testing was performed by an electric precision fatigue simulator (1×106 cycles; 100 N; and 15 Hz), followed by pull-out testing of fatigued specimens. Collected data were statistically evaluated by using a linear mixed model after post hoc comparisons by the least significant difference test (α=.05). RESULTS Luting agents, abutment heights, and fatigue influenced the bonding retention of zirconia crowns to titanium base abutments. SU/RU agents promoted higher pull-out compared with MP/GC for both abutment heights before and after fatigue. Higher abutment height increased pull-out regarding lower abutment height for SU/RU materials before and after fatigue testing. Although fatigue had no significant effect on the pull-out of MP/GC, lower bond retention was observed for SU/RU after fatigue, regardless of abutment height. CONCLUSIONS Luting agent composition and the interaction with abutment height and fatigue influenced the retention of zirconia crowns to titanium base abutments.

Abstract
PURPOSE To compare the effect of different pre-cementation surface treatments and bonding protocols on the retention force of additively manufactured (AM) implant-supported interim crowns. MATERIAL AND METHODS A total of 50 AM interim crowns (Temporary CB resin) were cemented on implant abutments. Five groups (n = 10) were established based on the different surface pre-treatments performed in the intaglio surface of the specimens: no surface pre-treatment (Group C or control), air-abraded with 50-μm aluminium oxide particles (Group AP), air-abraded with 50-μm aluminium oxide particles followed by the application of silane (Group AMP), silane (Group MP), and air-abraded with 30 μm silica-coated aluminum oxide particles followed by the application of silane (Group CMP). Each specimen was cemented into an implant abutment using a composite resin cement (Rely X Unicem2). Afterward, the specimens underwent retention testing with a Universal Instron machine. Pull-off forces (N) and modes of failure were registered. Statistical analysis was performed using Mann-Whitney U tests with Bonferroni corrections for multiple tests (α = 0.05). RESULTS The median retention force values were 233.27 ±79.28 N for Group Control, 398.59 ±68.59 N for Group MP, 303.21 ±116.80 N for Group AMP, 349.31 ±167.73 N for Group CMP, and 219.85 ± 55.88 N for Group AP. The pull-off forces were significantly greater for Group MP, while the differences between the remaining groups were not statistically significant (P > 0.05). Group AP showed the lowest retention force values among all the groups. Failure modes after the pull-off testing were predominantly adhesive and substrate failure of the AM interim material. CONCLUSIONS The surface treatment of the intaglio AM crown tested significantly influenced the retention force values measured. Pre-treatment with an MDP-containing silane improved the retentive force values computed, whereas pre-treatment with 50-μm Al2 O3 air-particle abrasion alone is not recommended prior to cementation on a titanium-based implant abutment.

Abstract
This study aimed to evaluate the effects of surface treatments and resin cement on the adhesion of ceramic and ceramic-like materials to titanium. A total of 40 specimens (5 mm diameter) of each material (lithium disilicate glass ceramic (LDGC-IPS e.maxCAD), lithium silicate glass ceramic (LSGC-VITA Suprinity) and a polymer-infiltrated ceramic network (PICN-Vita Enamic)) were fabricated using CAD/CAM technologies. In total, 120 titanium (Ti) specimens were divided into 12 groups, and half of the titanium specimens were tribochemically coated using CoJet. The titanium and all-ceramic specimens were cemented using either Self-curing adhesive cement (SCAC-Panavia 21) or a Self-curing luting composite (SCLC-Multilink Hybrid Abutment). After 5000 cycles of thermal aging, the shear bond strength (SBS) test was conducted using a universal testing machine. The failure modes of the specimens were analyzed using stereomicroscopy, and additionally, the representative specimens were observed using Scanning Electron Microscopy. ANOVA was used for the statistical analysis (p < 0.05). The post-hoc Duncan test was used to determine significant differences between the groups. The mean SBS values (mean ± STD) ranged from 15 ± 2 MPa to 29 ± 6 MPa. Significantly higher SBS values were acquired when the titanium surface was tribochemically coated (p < 0.05). The SCLC showed higher SBS values compared to the SCAC. While the LDGC showed the highest SBS values, the PICN presented the lowest. The tribochemical coating on the cementation surfaces of the titanium increased the SBS values. The specimens cemented with the SCLC showed higher SBS values than those with the SCAC. Additionally, the SCLC cement revealed a more significant increase in SBS values when used with the LDGC. The material used for restoration has a high impact on SBS than those of the cement and surface conditioning.

Abstract
BACKGROUND In implant prosthetic dentistry, the adhesive connection of individualized ceramic crowns and prefabricated titanium bases leads to several benefits. However, the durability of the bonding could be a weak point and especially depends on sufficient surface pretreatment. Cold atmospheric-pressure plasma (CAP) is a pretreatment method that should improve the surface properties without physical damage. Thus, the purpose of this study was to investigate the influence of CAP treatment on pull-off tensile load in two-piece abutment crowns. METHODS Eighty zirconia crowns and titanium bases were divided into eight groups (n = 10) according to their surface pretreatment prior to cementation with Panavia V5: no treatment (A); sandblasting (B); 10-MDP primer (C); sandblasting and primer (D); CAP (AP); sandblasting and CAP (BP); CAP and primer (CP); sandblasting, CAP and primer (DP). The specimens were thermocycled (5°/55°, 5000 cycles), and then the pull-off tensile load (TL) was measured. Statistical analyses were performed using three-way ANOVA with Tukey post-hoc and Fisher's exact tests. RESULTS The results showed that the TL was highest in group D (p < 0.0001). Some combinations of different treatments led to effects that were greater than the sum of the individual effects. These effects were modified by interactions. Only in combination with primer, CAP treatment had a small but positive significant effect (group CP vs. C and CP vs. AP, p < 0.0001) which however did not come close to the strong interaction effect that resulted from the combination of sandblasting and primer. CONCLUSION Within the limitations of this study, CAP treatment cannot be recommended in this specific field of indication due to its unreliable influence on TL in combination with other pretreatment methods.

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
The aim of this study was to investigate the effects of saliva contamination and the cleaning of the bond surface of titanium base (ti-base) abutments on the bonding stability and retention force values. The bond surface of the ti-base abutments was treated with airborne-particle abrasion. After contamination, the ti-base abutments underwent different cleaning protocols: water spray (H2O); alcohol (ALC); suspension of zirconium particles (SZP); reapplied airborne-particle abrasion (APA); and a control condition without contamination and cleaning (CTR). All lithium disilicate crowns were bonded to the ti-base abutments using a primer and a self-curing composite. Bonded specimens underwent thermo-mechanical aging. Bond failure analysis and pull-off testing were performed. Bond failure occurred more frequently in groups H2O, ALC, SZP, and APA (p < 0.05). Significant differences in retention force values were only found between CTR and ALC (p < 0.05). Specimens which did not show bond failure after ageing had higher retention force values than the specimens that showed bond failure (p < 0.05). Saliva contamination with cleaning can degrade the bonding properties to titanium. For the retention force values, only the protocol with alcohol after contamination could not restore the values.

Abstract
Background Two-part abutments are typically made up of a base composed of titanium and a ceramic build-up. The long-term outcomes are affected by the mechanical durability. The purpose of the present investigation was to evaluate and compare the retention force of two-part abutment systems with titanium or titanium nitride bases—as fixed with zirconia components and with various surface treatments. Methods A total of 60 two-part abutments were investigated—with a titanium base (n = 30) or titanium nitride coated bases (n = 30) and bonded with zirconia ceramic build-ups. The bonding surfaces were treated with aluminium oxide blasting, with an average particle size of 110 µm. The titanium bases were then pretreated with Alloy Primer or Clearfil Ceramic Primer. The ceramic build-ups were only treated with Clearfil Ceramic Primer. For twenty test specimens, no chemical pretreatment was performed. Test specimens were classified into six groups in accordance with the pretreatment (A–F; n = 10). A resin-based luting agent was employed to attach the two parts. Specimens were then subjected to artificial thermal aging (104 cycles with 5 °C/55 °C). The retention force between the two parts was then investigated with a pull-off test. The findings were analyzed by ANOVA statistics. Fracture patterns were examined by electron microscopy. Results In the absence of primer, titanium nitride coated bases gave significantly greater retention forces than other samples (p < 0.05). Chemical preconditioning with silane coupling agents did not effect on the retention force of coated bases. Conclusions The results of the current study suggested that modifying metal surfaces by coating the base with titanium nitride not only has esthetic and biological advantages, but also enhances the mechanical properties of the adhesive bond of two-part abutments.

Abstract
Radiofrequency magnetron sputtering of silicon was applied onto zirconia surfaces by use of a non-doped Si wafer at 2%, 5%, 8%, and 10% oxygen volumes. Immediately after sputtering, the contact angle was practically 0 for all oxygen volume specimens. In terms of sustainability of the hydrophilicity, however, 5% oxygen volume was found to be optimal. Scanning electron microscopy and energy dispersive X-ray spectroscopy clearly suggested the presence of silica layer on zirconia surfaces. The shear bond strength of the pre-treated zirconia and resin was 35.03±4.97 MPa, which was approximately 3.5 times higher than that of zirconia without any sputtering treatment (9.26±1.21 MPa). The failure mode of the pre-treated zirconia specimen was cohesive failure, whereas that of the control specimen was observed to be interface failure.

Abstract
Two-piece abutments consisting of customized zirconia abutment copings and prefabricated titanium bases are popular due to their biological and esthetic advantages. Glass-ceramic solder (GS) is an alternative biocompatible connective agent. This in vitro study evaluated the retentive force of GS in comparison to classical resin composite cements (RC) after artificial aging and autoclaving. Ninety specimens consisting of prefabricated titanium bases and zirconia abutment copings were fabricated. The two parts of each specimen were fixed either by RC (n = 30) or GS with a luting space of either 30 µm (n = 30) or 100 µm (n = 30). Ten specimens of each group underwent autoclaving before artificial aging (water storage, thermocycling). Twenty specimens (including the 10 autoclaved specimens) of each group were exposed to a mechanical load. The retentive force between the zirconia and titanium in all specimens was determined. A fractographic analysis was performed to analyze the fracture surfaces of the GS specimens. The RC- and GS-connected two-piece abutments showed no relevant differences, independent of the luting space. RC appears to be more vulnerable to the thermal and mechanical loads than GS. Thus, GS may be an appropriate alternative to RC for two-piece abutments, especially for patients with enhanced biocompatibility requirements.

Abstract
Zirconia is widely employed as a material during dental implant work because of its superior esthetics. This study sought to evaluate the impact of titanium or zirconia implant abutments on epithelial attachments after ultrasonic cleaning. These implants were inserted into the extraction socket of rat maxillary first molars. Then, the length of the horseradish peroxidase (HRP) reaction was measured. In addition, titanium and zirconia disks were cleaned using an ultrasonic scaler, surface morphology changes were observed, and the number of epithelial cell attachments to the surface was measured. Ultimately, the surfaces of the titanium disks were easier to damage than those of the zirconia ones. There was no difference in the number of epithelial cell attachments between the two materials with the ultrasonic cleaning. The length of the HRP reaction was shorter on the zirconia implant abutment surface than on the titanium one after mechanical cleaning. In conclusion, zirconia is harder than titanium and a better choice for use in the epithelial tissue attachment. Zirconia is more suitable as a material for implant abutments than titanium.

Abstract
Clinical Relevance
Mechanical surface roughening of the titanium-abutment base is necessary to increase the pull-off bond strength of the lithium disilicate abutment material. Additional chemical surface treatment may further increase the bond strength, but the effects are product specific.
SUMMARY
Objective:
The titanium-cement interface of a Ti-Base implant crown must be able to resist intraoral pull-off forces. The purpose of this study was to evaluate the effect of mechanical and chemical surface treatments of a titanium-abutment base (Ti-Base, Dentsply/Sirona) on the pull-off bond strength of a lithium disilicate abutment coping.
Methods and Materials:
Ti-Bases were divided into nine groups of 10 copings each that varied in both mechanical surface treatment (none; Al2O3 air abrasion; CoJet silicoating, 3M ESPE) and chemical treatments (none; Monobond Plus, Ivoclar Vivadent; Alloy Primer, Kuraray). Lithium disilicate abutment copings (IPS e.max CAD, Ivoclar Vivadent) were designed and milled. After crystallization, the copings were cemented onto the Ti-Bases with a resin cement (MultiLink Hybrid-Abutment Cement, Ivoclar Vivadent) according to the manufacturer's recommendations. The copings were torqued to a mounted implant, and the access channel was sealed with composite. After 24-hour storage and 2000 thermal-cycles in distilled water, the copings were subjected to a removal force parallel to the long axis of the interface until fracture. Data were analyzed with multiple one-way analyses of variance and Tukey post hoc tests (α=0.05).
Results:
Significant differences were found between groups based on type of surface treatment (p<0.05).
Conclusions:
Chemical surface treatment with Monobond Plus and mechanical surface treatment with CoJet silicoating or Al2O3 air abrasion resulted in the greatest pull-off bond strength. Alloy Primer did not provide a statistically significant increased pull-off bond strength when the surfaces were mechanically treated with Al2O3 air abrasion or CoJet silicoating. The lack of any mechanical surface treatment resulted in the lowest pull-off bond strength regardless of the type of chemical surface treatment.

Clinical and laboratory passive fit assessment of implant-supported zirconia restorations fabricated using conventional and digital workflow. Clin Implant Dent Relat Res 2020; 22:237-245.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Long-term success of implant-supported restorations can be affected by the accuracy of the prosthodontic workflow which may differ between conventional and digital techniques. PURPOSE The purpose was to compare the fit of two-implant-supported restorations, fabricated using conventional and digital workflows and to assess the influence of distance and angulation between the implants on the passive fit of the prosthesis. The SR test was selected to evaluate the fit of two-implant-supported zirconia restorations. MATERIALS AND METHODS Forty-eight zirconia two-implant-supported restorations were fabricated according to conventional (group C, n = 24) and digital (group D, n = 24) workflows. The SR parameter was calculated as a difference of rotation angles of each screw in passive and nonpassive situations. SR values between groups C and D were compared by performing measurements intraorally, on master and control casts. RESULTS SR intraorally in group C (16.25 ± 15.52°) was higher than it was in group D (13.85 ± 10.78°), but the difference was not statistically significant (P = .557). While measuring SR on the master cast, group C SR (6.04 ± 7.43°) had lower values than group D (13.12 ± 13.86°) (P = .0039). No statistically significant correlations were found between SR measurements and inter-implant distance or angulation. Restorations with inter-implant angle higher than 10° differed significantly from those with less than 10° angulation. CONCLUSIONS Digital restorations had a better fit on the control cast, which was used as a reference in this study. Angulation of more than 10° between the implants could negatively affect the passive fit of the digitally fabricated restorations intraorally.

Abstract
STATEMENT OF PROBLEM The optimal conditioning of zirconia is essential for a durable bond between zirconia copings and titanium inserts in 2-piece dental implant abutments. Low-pressure activation of the zirconia surface may be adequate for retention. PURPOSE The purpose of this in vitro study was to evaluate the influence of airborne-particle abrasion (APA) of the zirconia surface with different pressures on the retention of zirconia copings bonded to titanium abutments. In addition, 2 luting systems were compared. MATERIAL AND METHODS Computer-aided design and computer-aided manufacturing (CAD-CAM) zirconia copings were divided into 3 groups (n=32): 0.1 MPa, 0.25 MPa, and not airborne-particle abraded surfaces with 50-μm alumina (Al2O3) particles. Compatible titanium abutments were airborne-particle abraded at a pressure of 0.25 MPa. All specimens were ultrasonically cleaned before bonding. Each group was divided into 2 subgroups (n=16) with different luting composite resins. A 10-methacryloyloxydecyl dihydrogen phosphate (10-MDP) containing self-adhesive luting composite resin (Panavia SA Cement Plus) and a conventional luting composite resin (Multilink Hybrid Abutment) in combination with a 10-MDP-containing universal primer (Monobond Plus) was compared. Two storage conditions were tested: in water (37 °C) for 3 days or 150 days with 37 500 thermocycles between 5 °C and 55 °C. After artificial aging, retention was measured in tension, and the failure modes were analyzed by using a light microscope and a scanning electron microscope. Statistical analysis was performed with 1-way ANOVA and the Games-Howell test for post hoc analysis (α=.05). RESULTS The mean retention of the airborne-particle abraded groups ranged from 576.0 N to 1049.3 N after 150 days of water storage and 37 500 thermocycles. No significant difference in bond strength was found between the 2 luting composite resin groups with airborne-particle abraded zirconia surfaces after 150 days (P<.05). Both bonding systems provided durable bond strength after 3 and 150 days. Failure mode was mainly cohesive at the titanium surfaces and predominantly adhesive at the zirconia surfaces. The retention was significantly higher if APA was used versus no APA (P<.05), while the APA pressure used made no significant difference. CONCLUSIONS The APA of zirconia copings at a pressure of 0.1 MPa in combination with 10-MDP-containing luting composite resins and primers is adequate for the durable bonding of zirconia copings to titanium inserts.

Abstract
This study was conducted to test the hypothesis that heat-bonding with a liner positively affects the bond strength and fracture resistance of an implant-supported glass-ceramic crown bonded to a zirconia abutment produced by a computer-aided design/computer-aided milling (CAD/CAM) procedure. Lithium disilicate-reinforced Amber Mill-Q glass ceramic blocks were bonded to 3 mol% yttria stabilized tetragonal zirconia polycrystal (3Y-TZP) blocks by heat-bonding with a liner or cementation with a dual-cure self-adhesive resin cement for a microtensile bond strength test. CAD/CAM implant-supported glass ceramic crowns were produced using Amber Mill-Q blocks and bonded to a milled 3Y-TZP zirconia abutments by heat-bonding or cementation for a fracture test. A statistical analysis was conducted to investigate the significant differences between the experimental results. The mode of failure was analyzed using high-resolution field emission scanning electron microscopy. Chemical bonding was identified at the interface between the zirconia ceramic and liner. The mean tensile bond strength of the liner-bonded group was significantly higher than that of the cement-bonded group. The initial chipping strength of the liner-bonded group was significantly higher than that of the cement-bonded group, although no statistically significant difference was found for the fracture strength. The mode of failure was mixed with cohesive fracture through the liner, whereas the cement-bonded group demonstrated adhesive failure at the interface of bonding.

Abstract
OBJECTIVES Two-part abutments consist of titanium base and ceramic coping. Their long-term success is largely determined by the mechanical stability. The aim of the present study was to investigate the retention forces of two-part implant abutments. The study included zirconia and lithium disilicate ceramics copings, with different surface treatments and resin-based luting agents. MATERIAL AND METHODS The analysis of retention forces was based on a total of 70 test specimens. Seven surface modifications and three resin-based luting agents were employed for the bonding of components in the seven groups (n = 70). All surfaces of titanium bases-except for a control-were pretreated with aluminum oxide blasting, either alone or in combination with surface activating primers. Surfaces of ceramic copings were also treated mechanically by sandblasting, either alone or with acid etching or different primers. All specimens underwent thermal aging (104 cycles, 5°C/55°C). The retention forces between the two parts were measured with a pull-off test. The results were analyzed by two-way ANOVA statistics. Fracture patterns were evaluated by light and scanning electron microscopy. RESULTS No mechanical pretreatment of the titanium (group 2) base resulted in the lowest retention. The combination with Monobond plus leads to the highest pull-off forces for both ceramic materials. CONCLUSIONS Surface modifications and resin-based agents influence the retention of components of two-part abutments. Lithium disilicate ceramic copings reached comparable results of retention to the typically used zirconia copings.

Abstract
STATEMENT OF PROBLEM Information about the long-term evaluation of 2-piece zirconia abutments (TPZAs) with bonded titanium inserts for implant-supported restorations is sparse. PURPOSE The purpose of this clinical study was to evaluate the clinical outcome of TPZAs with bonded titanium inserts for implant-supported restorations. MATERIAL AND METHODS This study retrospectively evaluated the records of patients who received implant restorations supported by TPZAs with bonded titanium inserts. The patients were recalled between January 2017 and December 2017 so that the restorations could be examined clinically and radiographically for technical and biological complications. RESULTS A total of 27 patients with 30 restorations and 42 zirconia abutments (ZAs) were included in the study. The patient records revealed that all implants remained integrated. However, 5 restorations supported by seven ZAs in 4 patients had to be refabricated because of abutment failure before the recall. Six of the failed abutments were in the molar area, with a combination of zirconia and titanium as the connection platform. Additional complications included screw loosening (1 patient), ceramic chipping (1 patient), and peri-implantitis (1 patient). The mean observation period was 6.6 ±1.5 years (range: 3.6 to 9.2 years). CONCLUSIONS After a mean observation period of 6 years after insertion, TPZAs with bonded titanium inserts appear to be a suitable treatment option in the anterior and premolar regions. However, in the molar area, the use of the same type of ZA without a complete metal-to-metal connection platform to support the restoration led to a high incidence of fracture.

Abstract
STATEMENT OF PROBLEM How cement type and the surface treatment of a titanium base affect the retention of zirconia copings on titanium bases is unclear. PURPOSE The purpose of this in vitro study was to evaluate the dislodging forces of zirconium oxide copings cemented on implant-supported titanium bases with different luting agents and to examine the influence of airborne-particle abrasion on titanium surfaces. MATERIAL AND METHODS Thirty implant laboratory analogs (BioHorizons) were fixed in metal blocks, and 30 prosthetic titanium bases (BioHorizons) were tightened with 35 Ncm of torque. Zirconium oxide copings with a luting-gap size of 30 μm were produced by using the Lava (3M ESPE) technology. The specimens were bonded to the titanium bases with 3 different resin cements (G-CEM LinkAce, RelyX U200, and Ceka Site). The specimens were kept in artificial saliva at 37°C for 24 hours and then subjected to a dynamic loading of 5000 cycles with a mastication simulator (SD Mechatronic) with thermocycling between 5°C and 55°C. The tensile force was measured by using a universal testing machine (Zwick/Roell) at a crosshead speed of 5 mm/min. After the measurement, the cement was cleaned from the titanium bases and zirconia copings. The titanium bases were airborne-particle abraded with 50-μm aluminum oxide (Al2O3) particles, and the bonding process was repeated. The statistical analysis included descriptive analysis, 2-way ANOVA, the Tukey post hoc, and simple main effect tests (α=.05). RESULTS Bond strengths were significantly different according to the cement type used and before and after airborne-particle abrasion (P<.05). The cement retentiveness before airborne-particle abrasion was as follows: G-CEM LinkAce (1338 ±69 N)>RelyX U200 (665 ±36 N)>Ceka Site (469 ±22 N). The differences among all the cement types before airborne-particle abrasion were statistically significant (P<.05). After airborne-particle abrasion, retention decreased in all the groups, and the ranking of the cements' retentiveness remained the same: G-CEM LinkAce (662 ±65 N)>RelyX U200 (352 ±21 N)>Ceka Site (122 ±17 N). After airborne-particle abrasion, the differences among all the cements remained statistically significant (P<.05). The comparison within the groups before and after airborne-particle abrasion revealed that abrading the titanium bases with 50-μm Al2O3 decreased the bond strength for all the tested cements. CONCLUSIONS The cement type had a significant influence on the retention of the zirconia copings, and abrading the titanium bases with 50-μm Al2O3 significantly decreased the dislodging force of the coping from the titanium base.

Effect of chemical surface treatment of titanium on its bond with dental ceramics. J Prosthet Dent 2018; 120:470-475. [PMID: 29627218 DOI: 10.1016/j.prosdent.2017.11.025] [Citation(s) in RCA: 9] [Impact Index Per Article: 1.5] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 05/18/2017] [Revised: 11/15/2017] [Accepted: 11/15/2017] [Indexed: 11/20/2022]
Abstract
STATEMENT OF PROBLEM Airborne-particle abrasion of titanium is a clinically accepted method of surface preparation. As a side effect of airborne-particle abrasion, particles of the abrasive material get embedded into the surface. How particle presence or removal from the titanium surface affects the strength of the titanium-ceramic bond is unclear. PURPOSE The purpose of this in vitro study was to determine the effect of removing Al2O3 particles embedded into the surface by means of chemical surface treatment on the strength of the titanium-ceramic bond. MATERIAL AND METHODS Titanium (TritanCpTi 1, Dentaurum, 99.5% Ti) disks were airborne-particle abraded with 110 μm Al2O3 at a pressure of 0.4 MPa and an angle of approximately 45 degrees. The surface was etched chemically using 1 of 8 reagents, and the veneering ceramic applied and fired. The strength of the metal-ceramic bond was determined using the shear strength test. Further, the effect of thermal fatigue on the bond strength was evaluated. The results were analyzed with 2-way ANOVA and the Tukey honest significant difference (HSD) test (α=.05). Fractographic investigations and microscopic tests were also performed to determine the quality of the titanium-ceramic bond. RESULTS Effective etching of the titanium surface and removal of Al2O3 particles included a 30% water solution of HNO3 + 3% HF, a mixture of HNO3 + HF + glycerin, a 4% solution of HF in H2O2, and a 4% solution of HF in H2O. A statistically significant difference (of about 50%) in bond strength was found between the groups subjected to chemical etching and the control group (P<.05). Additionally, a statistically significant difference (about 25%) was found after thermocycling (P<.05). CONCLUSIONS Removing the Al2O3 particles embedded into the titanium surface after airborne-particle abrasion lowers the strength of the titanium-ceramic bond (P<.05). Thermocycling also weakens the strength of the titanium-ceramic bond, regardless of the surface preparation (P<.05).
