Abstract

The aim of this study was to evaluate the bond strength of experimental resin cements (ERCs) containing different concentrations of Diphenyliodonium Hexafluorphosphate (DPIHFP) salt to a lithium disilicate ceramic with or without the adhesive application after silane treatment. For this purpose, five ERCs were prepared using a Bis-GMA/TEGDMA (1:1 molar ratio) base compound with a 60% mass fraction of silanated Barium-Aluminum-Silicate glass fillers. The photoinitiator system was composed by 1 mol% of camphorquinone (CQ) 2 mol% of dimethylaminoethil methacrylate (DMAEMA) and different DPIHFP concentrations of 0, 0.25, 0.5, 1 or 2 mol%, resulting in five ERCs. As an inhibitor, 0.1mol% of hydroxyl butyl toluene was used. Therefore, the fixing protocol was performed with or without the application of adhesive (Scotchbond Multi-Purpose Adper - Bond) thereby establishing, 12 groups (n = 7), evaluating the five experimental resin cements and a commercial cement (RelyX ARC). Eighty four IPS e.max Press ceramic specimens (10 mm lenght x 10 mm width x 3 mm thickness) were fabricated and randomly divided among the 12 groups previously established. All the groups were etched with 10% hydrofluoric acid for 20 seconds and silane couple agent applied on the bond surface. After that, the specimens were fixed to photoactivated composite resin Filtek Z250 blocks (10 mm lenght x 10 mm width x 5 mm thickness), using different cements according to the respective group under static load of 500 g per one minute. For groups with adhesive application, this was applied 1 minute after applying the silane being cured by a third generation LED (Bluephase G2) together with the resin cement for 60 seconds. After storage for 24 hours at 37oC, the samples were sectioned perpendicular to the bond interface to obtain 1 mm2 sectional area beams (30 beams per sample) and submitted to a microtensile bond strength test in a universal testing machine EMIC, at a crosshead speed of 0.5 mm/min. The failure mode was analyzed by a stereomicroscope (Leica MZ75) at 40x magnification and one example of each type of failure mode was analyzed in scanning electron microscopy. Data were analyzed using ANOVA two criteria (ANOVA two-way) and Tukey test at a significance level of 5%. The dual resin cement RelyX ARC showed the highest bond strength values using or not the adhesive system. In groups with adhesive system, the ERCs were not statistically different from each other on the bond strength values to ceramics. In groups without adhesive system, the 2mol% of DPIHFP resin cement obtained the lowest bond strength values. The adhesive application led to higher bond strength values only for RelyX ARC and 2mol % DPIHFP resin cements. According to results, it can be concluded that the addition of DPIHFP salt was not able to increase the bond strength values of the experimental cements. The dual activation system showed higher values of bond strength when compared to photoactivated ERCs and adhesive system protocol increased the bond strength values only for the RelyX ARC and 2mol% DPIHFP resin cements (AU)
