Resumo

This study aimed to evaluate the effect of grinding on some surface properties of two lithium disilicate-based glass-ceramics, one experimental new product denominated LaMaV Press (UFSCar-Brazil) and another commercial known as IPS e-max Press (Ivoclar), in the context of simulated clinical adjustment. Discs (N = 24, 12 mm in diameter) were separated into four groups: LaMaV Press with no grinding (E), LaMaV Press after grinding (EG), IPS e-max Press with no grinding (C), and IPS e-max Press after grinding (CG). A 0.1-mm deep grinding was carried out on EG and CG samples (final thickness of 1.4 mm) using a diamond stone in a low-speed device. The E and C samples had the same thickness. The effect of grinding on the sample surfaces was evaluated by X-ray diffraction, mechanical and optical profilometry, scanning electron microscopy, goniometry, and Vickers hardness. The mean roughness (Ra) was evaluated by Kruskal-Wallis and Student-Newman-Keuls statistics. The surface energy (SE) by the sessile drop method and Vickers hardness (VH) were analyzed using two-way ANOVA. The Ra medians were E = 1.69 mu m, EG = 1.57 mu m, C = 1.45 mu m, and CG = 1.13 mu m with p = 0.0284. The SE and VH were similar for all materials and treatments. Grinding smoothed the surfaces and did not significantly alter the hardness and surface energy of both LaMaV Press and IPS e-max Press. These glass-ceramics presented similar surface properties, and clinical adjustments can be implemented without loss of performance of both materials. A grinding standardization device developed that allowed to control the amount of grinding, the speed of rotation speed and the force exerted on the samples. {[}GRAPHICS] (AU)
