| Abstract | ||||
| Purpose: To assess the effect of chemical pre-treatments (piranha, hot acid, and heteropolyacid) on the bond strength (μTBS) to zirconia. Materials and Methods: A total of 8 sintered zirconia blocks were randomly assigned into 4 groups; Group I: Air abrasion, Group II: Air abrasion and etching using piranha solution (3H2SO4: 1H2O2), Group III: Air abrasion and etching using hot acid solution (1HNO3: 1HF), and Group IV: Air abrasion and etching using heteropolyacid solution (2gm/50 mL). Zirconia blocks were bonded to their corresponding pre-constructed composite blocks using adhesive resin cement. For each group, each assembly was sectioned to obtain 20 microbars. All microbars were thermocyled (10,000), then the μTBS test was done with the aid of a Universal Testing machine. To determine the mode of failure, each specimen was examined under stereomicroscope (x40). One-way ANOVA and Post Hoc Tukey tests were used. Results: The piranha pre-treatment displayed the lowest bond strength (16.82 ±5.97 MPa), while heteropolyacid pre-treatment had higher bond strength (26.22 ±4.05 MPa). One-way ANOVA test indicated statistical significant difference between the studied groups (P<.001). No significant difference was observed between control and piranha groups, also between hot acid and heteropolyacid groups. However, there were statistical significant difference between the control and heteropolyacid groups, and between piranha and heteropolyacid groups. Conclusions: According to the current findings; The novel surface pre-treatment with heteropolyacid (2gm/50 mL) performed well to improve bonding to air-abraded zirconia-based ceramics. The hot acids etching pre-treatment enhanced the bonding to zirconia. | ||||
