PURPOSE. This study aimed to compare the microshear bond strength (µSBS) of dual-cure resin cement in CAD-CAM zirconia after different cleaning techniques. MATERIALS AND METHODS. Fifty discs of zirconia-based ceramic from Ivoclar Vivadent were embedded in acrylic resin. The discs were divided into five groups according to the cleaning methods used: Group 1: drying with spraying + sandblasting with Al₂O₃; Group 2: washed with water and dried with spraying + sandblasting with Al₂O₃;Group 3: washed with distilled water and dried with spraying + sandblasting with Al₂O₃ + zirconium oxide (Ivoclean); Group 4: washed with distilled water and dried with spraying + sandblasting with Al₂O₃ + potassium hydroxide (Zirclean); and Group 5: washed with distilled water and dried with spraying + sandblasting with Al₂O₃ + 1% NaClO. All of the groups were contaminated with artificial saliva for 1 minute and then cleaned. Statistical analyses were performed using ANOVA and Tukey's tests. RESULTS. There were statistically significant differences among all groups for µSBS (P < .05). The group treated with zirconium oxide (Group 3) showed the highest µSBS (18.75 ± 0.23 MPa). CONCLUSION. When applied to zirconia, the cleaning methods affected the bonding with resin cement differently.

3Y-TZP (3 mol% yttria-stabilized tetragonal zirconia polycrystals) ceramics have excellent mechanical properties including high fracture toughness, good abrasion resistance as well as chemical and biological stability. As a result, they are widely used in mechanical and medical components such as bearings, grinding balls, and hip implants. In addition, they provide excellent light transmittance, biocompatibility, and can match tooth color when used as a dental implant. Recently, given the materials' resemblance to human teeth, these ceramics have emerged as an alternative to titanium implants. Since the introduction of CAD/CAM in the manufacture of ceramic implants, they've been increasingly used for prosthetic restoration where aesthetics and strength are required. In this study, to improve the surface roughness of zirconia implants, we modified the 3Y-TZP surface with a biocomposite of hydroxyapatite and forsterite using room temperature spray coating methods, and investigated the mixed effect of the two powders on the evolution of surface microstructure, i.e., coating thickness and roughness, and biological interaction during the in vitro test in SBF solution. We compared improvement in bioactivity by observing dissolution and re-precipitation on the specimen surface. From the results of in vitro testing in SBF solution, we confirmed improvement in the bioactivity of the 3Y-TZP substrate after surface modification with a biocomposite of hydroxyapatite and forsterite. Surface dissolution of the coating layer and the precipitation of new hydroxyapatite particles was observed on the modified surface, indicating the improvement in bioactivity of the zirconia substrate.

연구 목적: 본 연구는 지르코니아 코핑의 다양한 디자인과 시멘트 종류에 따른 지르코니아 도재관의 파절 저항성과 변연 적합도를 평가하고자 하였다. 연구 재료 및 방법: CAD/CAM system (Everest, KAVO Dental GmbH, Biberach, Germany)을 이용하여, 다양한 두께를 가진 지르코니아 코핑을 디자인하고 제작하였다. 80개의 코핑을 디자인에 따라 20개씩 4개의 그룹으로 분류하였으며, 각 그룹은 다시 시멘트 종류에 따라 시편을 10개씩 나누어 2개의 소그룹으로 분류하였다. Group I은 전체적으로 균일하게 0.3 mm로, group II는 협면과 협측 교합면은 0.3 mm, 설면과 설측 교합면을 0.6 mm, group III은전체0.6 mm 균일하게, Group IV는 협면과 협측 교합면은 0.6 mm 설면과 설측 교합면을 1.0 mm로 디자인 하였다. Putty index를 이용해 같은 크기와 형태의 지르코니아 도재관을 축성 후, 완성하였다. 미세 경도측정기의 현미경 (Matsuzawa, MXT-70, Japan)으로 도재관의 변연 적합도를 측정하였고, 만능시험기 (Z020, Zwick, Germany)를 이용하여 cross-head speed를 1 mm/min로 도재관이 파절될 때까지 수직 하중을 가해 파절 저항성을 측정하였다. One-way ANOVA와 two-way ANOVA 를 이용해 그 결과를 비교 분석 하였으며, 사후 검정으로 Duncan's multiple range test ($\alpha$=0.05)를 사용하였다. 결과:1. 코핑 디자인에 따른 변연적합성은 유의한 차이가 있었다 (P<.05). 2. 임시합착제 (Cavitec$^{(R)}$)로 합착한 군에서 코핑 디자인에 따른 지르코니아 도재관의 파절강도는 유의한 차이가 있었다 (P<.05). 3. 영구접착제 (Panavia-$F^{(R)}$)로 접착한 군에서 코핑 디자인에 따른 지르코니아 도재관의 파절강도는 통계학적인 유의차가 없었다 (P>.05). 4. 시멘트의 종류에 따른 동일한 디자인사이에서의 파절강도는 group I과 group II에서 Panavia-F 접착군이 Cavitec$^{(R)}$ 접착군보다 통계학적으로 유의성 있게 높았다 (P<.05). 5. 도재관의 파절 양상은 지르코니아 코핑의 디자인에 따른 차이는 없었으며, 시멘트의 종류에 따라 Cavitec$^{(R)}$ 접착군에서는 시편이 완전 분리되는 전부 파절, Panavia-$F^{(R)}$ 접착군에서는 전장 도재층에서만 파절되는 부분파절이 주로 나타났다. 결론: 제한된 결과이기는 하나 심미성을 위해 가시면을 얇게 하고 강도를 위해 비가시면의 지르코니아 코핑을 두껍게 하는, 즉 기능에 따라 두께를 달리 하는 세라믹 하부구조 디자인이 임상에서 선택적으로 활용될 수 있을 것으로 사료되었다.

Purpose: Zirconia blocks for all ceramic dentures are divided into two groups. One is pre-heated block and the other is binder added block. In this study, the possibility of recycling the remained parts of binder added block after CAD/CAM machining with slip casting process was investigated. Methods: Owing to the binder added block contain large amount of organic matter, Binder burn-out was must be carried out before ball milling for preparing the casting slip. Binder burn-out was accomplished at $600^{\circ}C$ for 10 hours. Ball milling was performed with 5mm zirconia ball and 60mm polyethylene bottle. From 0% to 5% at 1% intervals of alumina was added to zirconia powder for preparing slip. Solid casting was achieved with plaster mold. Cast bodies were dried and sintered at $1,500^{\circ}C$ for 1 hour. Linear shrinkage, apparent porosity, water absorption, bulk density, and flexural strength were tested. Microstructures were observed by SEM, EDS and XRD analysis were executed. Results: Optimum slips for casting was prepared with 300g ball, 100g powder, and 180g distilled water. Cast body without alumina showed 26% of linear shrinkage, 6.07 of apparent density, and 470MPa of three point bend strength. On the other hand, as received zirconia block, which was sintered at the same conditions, showed 23% of linear shrinkage, 6.10 of apparent density, and 680MPa of three point bend strength. When 3% of alumina was added to zirconia, sintered body showed 23% of linear shrinkage, 6.10 of apparent density, and 780MPa of three point bend strength. SEM photomicrographs and EDS analysis showed alumina particles uniformly dispersed in zirconia matrix, and XRD analysis showed no phase transformation of tetragonal zirconia particles was occurred when alumina was added. Conclusion: According to the all of this experimental results, 3% of alumina added cast zirconia body showed excellent mechanical properties more than as received binder containing zirconia block.

PURPOSE. The purpose of this study was to assess the effect of resin cement shade on the color of different novel ultratranslucent monolithic zirconia and lithium disilicate veneer materials. MATERIALS AND METHODS. For a total of 40 specimens, flat cylindrical discs with a 9-mm diameter and 0.5-mm thickness were created using CAD/CAM technology. The specimens were divided into five groups according to their material (n = 8) (e.max, Prettau, Aidite, Shofu and Dima) using A1 shade. Resin discs with the same diameter and shade as the specimens served as tooth-colored substructures. Three shades (neutral, light and warm) of resin cement try-in pastes (Variolink Esthetic LC) were used as the luting cement material. The color of each material group was measured before and after cementation using the three cement shades, and the CIE L^*a^*b^* coordinates were obtained with a spectrophotometer. Values for the translucency parameter (TP) and color change delta E (E) before (baseline) and after cementation of each specimen were determined. To compare differences among the material groups within each shade of cement and among various shades of cement within each material, the data were analyzed using one-way ANOVA and post hoc testing. RESULTS. Color coordinates L^*, a^* and b^* significantly changed after the application of try-in pastes relative to baseline values, with a noticeable decrease in lightness (L^*) (P < .05). A significant color change (ΔE) was observed in all tested materials after cementation, with ΔE values exceeding 3.3 (P < .05). Although TP changed after cementation for most materials tested, these changes were not statistically significant (P > .05). Shofu and Dima ceramics showed the lowest TP values, while Aidite and Prettau showed the highest TP values. For e.max, translucency decreased after cementation with neutral and warm shades, and it significantly increased after cementation with a light shade. CONCLUSION. The shade of cement significantly altered the final color of the ceramic veneer material to a level above the threshold at which the clinical perception of color change occurred (> 3.3). The TP was not influenced by the cement shade. The translucency levels of the novel ultratranslucent multilayer monolithic zirconia ceramics Aidite and Prettau were higher than that of the lithium disilicate e.max material.
