ABSTRACT
OBJECTIVE:
To evaluate the ability of the water glass treatment to penetrate zirconia and improve the bond strength of resin cement. MATERIAL ANDMETHODS:
Water glass was applied to zirconia specimens, which were then sintered. The specimens were divided into water-glass-treated and untreated zirconia (control) groups. The surface properties of the water-glass-treated specimens were evaluated using surface roughness and electron probe micro-analyser (EPMA) analysis. A resin cement was used to evaluate the tensile bond strength, with2 and without a silane-containing primer. After 24 h in water storage at 37 °C and thermal cycling, the bond strengths were statistically evaluated with t-test, and the fracture surfaces were observed using SEM.RESULTS:
The water glass treatment slightly increased the surface roughness of the zirconia specimens, and the EPMA analysis detected the water glass penetration to be 50 µm below the zirconia surface. The application of primer improved the tensile bond strength in all groups. After 24 h, the water-glass-treated zirconia exhibited a tensile strength of 24.8 ± 5.5 MPa, which was significantly higher than that of the control zirconia (17.6 ± 3.5 MPa) (p < 0.05). After thermal cycling, the water-glass-treated zirconia showed significantly higher tensile strength than the control zirconia. The fracture surface morphology was mainly an adhesive pattern, whereas resin cement residue was occasionally detected on the water-glass-treated zirconia surfaces.CONCLUSION:
The water glass treatment resulted in the formation of a stable silica phase on the zirconia surface. This process enabled silane coupling to the zirconia and improved the adhesion of the resin cement.Palavras-chave
