Effect of metal primers on the bond strength of resin cement to Co-Cr alloy.

BACKGROUND: To evaluate the effects of adhesive systems and primer systems on microshear bond strength of chemically activated resin cemented to Co-Cr cast dental alloy. METHODS: Seventy-two rectangular blocks of Co-Cr metal alloy were manufactured and air-abraded with 50-µm Al2O3 particles. Metal primers (alloy primer [AP] or Clearfil ceramic primer [CP]) and adhesives (Adper Scotchbond Multi-Purpose Adhesive activated by Adper Scotchbond Multi-Purpose Adhesive Catalyst [SASC], or Primer & Bond 2.1 activated by Self Cure Activator [PBCA]) were applied and subsequently divided into six groups (SASC; AP+SASC; CP+SASC; PBCA; AP+PBCA; CP+PBCA; N.=12). Then, resin cement (Enforce) was applied. Data about microshear bond strength values were statistically evaluated by analysis of variance and Tukey's test. RESULTS: The bond strength was lower (P<0.001) in groups with adhesive system alone (SASC and PBCA) compared with groups with addition of primers alloy primer (AP+SASC and AP+PBCA) and ceramic primer (CP+SASC and CP+PBCA). CONCLUSIONS: The application of primers improves the bond strength of the cement resin to the Co-Cr metal alloy.

Surface detail reproduction and dimensional accuracy of molds: influence of disinfectant solutions and elastomeric impression materials.

This study compared the surface detail reproduction and dimensional accuracy of molds after disinfection using 2% sodium hypochlorite, 2% chlorhexidine digluconate or 0.2% peracetic acid to those of molds that were not disinfected, for four elastomeric impression materials: polysulfide (Light Bodied Permlastic), polyether (Impregum Soft), polydimethylsiloxane (Oranwash L) andpolyvinylsiloxane (Aquasil Ultra LV). The molds were prepared on a matrix by applying pressure, using a perforated metal tray. The molds were removed following polymerization and either disinfected (by soaking in one of the solutions for 15 minutes) or not disinfected. The samples were thus divided into 16 groups (n=5). Surface detail reproduction and dimensional accuracy were evaluated using optical microscopy to assess the 20-µm line over its entire 25 mm length. The dimensional accuracy results (%) were subjected to analysis of variance (ANOVA) and the means were compared by Tukey's test (a=5%). The 20-µm line was completely reproduced by all elastomeric impression materials, regardless of disinfection procedure. There was no significant difference between the control group and molds disinfected with peracetic acid for the elastomeric materials Impregum Soft (polyether) and Aquasil Ultra LV (polyvinylsiloxane). The high-level disinfectant peracetic acid would be the choice material for disinfection.

Este estudo comparou a reprodução de detalhes da superficie e estabilidade dimensional de moldes obtidos após desinfecção utilizando hipoclorito de sódio 2%, digluconato de clorexidina 2%, ou ácido peracético 0,2% a moldes que não foram desinfetados com quatro elastomeros: polissulfeto (Light Bodied Permlastic), polieter (Impregum Soft), silicona reação por condensação (Oranwash L) e silicona reação por adição (Aquasil Ultra LV). Os moldes foram preparados sobre matriz contendo linhas de 20, 50 e 75 µm realizado sob pressão com moldeira de metal perfurada. Os moldes foram removidos após a polimerização e desinfetados (utilizando uma das soluções por imersão, armazenados em frascos fechados durante 15 minutos) ou não desinfetados. Assim, as amostras foram divididas em 16 grupos (n=5). A reprodução detalhes da superficie e a precisão dimensional foram avaliadas usando microscopia óptica na linha 20 µm com 25 mm de comprimento, de acordo com a norma ISO 4823. Os resultados de precisão dimensional (%) foram submetidos a análise de variancia (ANOVA) e as médias comparadas pelo teste de Tukey com 5% de nivel de significancia. A linha de 20 µm foi completamente reproduzida por todos os elastomeros, independentemente do processo de desinfecção. Nao houve diferenga estatisticamente significativa entre o grupo controle e moldes desinfetados com acido peracético para os elastomeros Impregum Soft (polieter) e Aquasil Ultra LV (silicona reação por adição). O desinfetante de alto nivel ácido peracético seria o material de escolha para a desinfecção.

Influence of alginate impression materials and storage time on surface detail reproduction and dimensional accuracy of stone models.

This study compared the surface detail reproduction and dimensional accuracy of stone models obtained from molds prepared using different alginate impression materials (Cavex ColorChange, Hydrogum 5, or Jeltrate Plus) and with different storage times (1, 3, and 5 days) to models from molds that were filled immediately with no storage time. The molds were prepared over a matrix containing 50-µm line, (ISO 1563 standard) under pressure with a perforated metal tray. The molds were removed 2 minutes after loss of sticky consistency and either filled immediately or stored in closed jars at 100% relative humidity and 37°C for 1, 3, or 5 days. The molds were filled with dental plaster (Durone IV). Surface detail reproduction and dimensional accuracy were evaluated using optical microscopy on the 50-µm wide line, which was 25 mm in length, according to ISO 1563 standard. The dimensional accuracy results (%) were subjected to analysis of variance. The 50-µm wide line (ISO 1563 standard) was completely reproduced by all alginate impression materials regardless of the storage time. There was no statistically significant difference in the mean dimensional accuracy values of stone models made from molds composed of different alginate impression materials and with different storage times (p = 0.989). In conclusion, storing the mold for five days prior to filling did not change the surface detail reproduction or dimensional accuracy of the alginates examined in this study.

Este estudo comparou a reprodução de detalhes da superfície e estabilidade dimensional de modelos de gesso obtidos a partir de diferentes alginatos (Cavex Color Change, Hydrogum 5, Jeltrate Plus) e com diferentes tempos de armazenagem (1, 3, e 5 dias)para modelos obtidos de moldes que foram preenchidos imediatamente sem tempo de armazenagem. Os moldes foram preparados sobre matriz contendo linha de 50 μm (norma ISO1563) realizado sob pressão com moldeira de metal perfurada.Os moldes foram removidos 2 minutos após a perda de consistência pegajosa e preenchidos imediatamente ou armazenado sem frascos fechados com temperatura (37°C) e umidade relativa(100%) controladas por 1, 3 ou 5 dias. Os moldes foram preenchidos com gesso dental (Durone IV). A reprodução de detalhes da superfície e a estabilidade dimensional foram avaliadas usando microscopia óptica na linha 50 μm com 25 mm de comprimento, de acordo com a norma ISO 1563. Os resultados de estabilidade dimensional (%) foram submetidos á análise de variância. A linha de 50 μm (norma ISO 1563) foi completamente reproduzida por todos os alginatos, independentemente do tempo de armazenagem. Não houve diferença estatisticamente significa -tiva nos valores médios de estabilidade de modelos de gesso obtidos de moldes de diferentes alginatos com diferentes tempos de armazenagem (p = 0.989). Em conclusão, o armazenamento do molde durante cinco dias antes do preenchimento não alterou a reprodução de detalhes da superfície ou estabilidade dimensional dos alginatos examinadas neste estudo.
