Shear bond strength of resin bonded ceramic after different try-in procedures.

Final cementation of porcelain laminate veneers may require a previous colour match try-in. The purpose of this in vitro study was to evaluate the effect on shear bond strength of resin bonded to porcelain after the application of different try-in procedures. Forty porcelain specimens were fabricated, flattened with 600 grit SiC, etched with hydrofluoric acid and silane treated. After 24 h the specimens were divided into four groups at random and prior to bonding of a dual cure resin composite button were treated as follows: Group 1, no treatment (control); Group 2, non-activated resin applied for 5 min, cleaned in acetone for 3 min; Group 3, as for Group 2, with silane reapplied; Group 4, as for group 3, but re-etched for 30 s before reapplication of silane. After bonding the specimens were stored in water at room temperature for 7 days. Shear bond strength data were as follows: Group 1, 18.6 +/- 1.6; Group 2, 15.9 +/- 1.7; Group 3, 16.7 +/- 2.6; Group 4, 15.3 +/- 3.0 MPa. Fractured surfaces examined, under light microscopy and scanning electron microscopy (SEM), showed cohesive failure within the porcelain in all cases. The reduction in mean bond strength after application of a try-in resin was significant in Groups 2 and 4 compared with the control (ANOVA P < 0.05). No other significant differences were measured. In conclusion a single reapplication of silane maintained the bond strength of resin to porcelain when final cementation was preceded by a try-in procedure and cleaning.[1]
