Book Molecular Research on Dental Materials and Biomaterials 2018

Download or read book Molecular Research on Dental Materials and Biomaterials 2018 written by Ihtesham Ur Rehman and published by MDPI. This book was released on 2021-04-21 with total page 280 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The history of use of dental materials and biomaterial dates back to the BC era, but the real advances in this field have occurred since the 19th century, due to the invention and understanding of new materials. These advances have been due to the continuous quest for new materials and new technologies used for the design and fabrication of new and novel materials, and, in particular, the understanding of new materials with innovative clinical applications. These have only been possible due to interdisciplinary research of a translational nature, where physicians, surgeons, dentists, and materials scientists work together for a common and targeted goal. It is important for clinicians to understand the needs of the patient, who translates those needs for the materials scientist to develop an implant to improve the quality of life for the patient. Once the chemical, physical, mechanical, and biological properties of the materials are well understood, then these materials can be tailored to provide specific clinical applications. Development in the field of tissue engineering and regenerative medicine has only been possible due to work from this partnership. This Special Issue will provide an excellent forum to bring together different communities and publish research of a high caliber, which will be beneficial to healthcare.

Abstract: Zirconia offers a favorable choice for esthetic indirect dental restorations with excellent mechanical properties and biocompatibility. In the hostile oral environment, the longevity of dental restorations relies heavily on whether a strong and stable bond between the restoration and underlying supporting tooth structures can be achieved. However, unlike conventional ceramics, zirconia is a chemically inert material which makes it notoriously difficult to bond with any dental composite resin cement. This thesis aimed at developing and evaluating different zirconia surface pretreatments for improving the resin-zirconia bonding. The first laboratory experiment evaluated the effect of Er, Cr: YSGG laser treatment on topographic changes of zirconia surface. Laser parameters including power, irradiation time and water spray at different levels were tested and the treated zirconia surfaces were assessed by scanning electron microscope (SEM) and atomic force microscope (AFM). Results showed that all three tested laser parameters could affect the topographic changes of zirconia surface. Significant topographic changes were found when the power was set at 3.0 W with 50% water spray for 120 s or the power was set at 4.0 W with 75% water spray for 60 s. The second experiment evaluated the effects of grit-blasting (sandblasting), selective infiltration etching (SIE), 3.0 W and 4.0 W laser zirconia surface treatments on the resin-zirconia bonding. Resin composite was bonded to the treated zirconia which was then sectioned into resin-zirconia micro-beams of a standard size. Microtensile bond strength (MTBS) tests were performed for adhesion strength testing. In dry storage conditions, SIE, grit-blasting and 3.0 W laser groups showed significantly higher MTBSs than the control group while no difference in MTBSs was found between the 4.0 W laser group and the control group. After water storage, SIE treatment showed significant higher MTBSs than the remaining groups. MTBSs of water storage specimens were significantly less than the dry specimens except the ones in 4.0 W groups. Zirconia surface treatments could enhance the resin-zirconia bonding in dry storage conditions. The SIE treatment appeared to provide the strongest resin-zirconia adhesion despite hydrolytic degradation. The third experiment evaluated the fatigue performance of resin-zirconia bonding with different surface treatments. Resin-zirconia beams were prepared and loaded at 36 N with 1.5 Hz frequency for 104 cycles at room temperature, before sectioned for MTBS tests. In dry storage conditions, SIE and grit-blasting groups showed significantly higher MTBSs than the control group while no differences in MTBSs were found among the 3.0 W, 4.0 W and control groups. After fatigue loading, only the SIE and 3.0 W groups showed significantly lower MTBSs while the other groups did not. After water storage, MTBSs of water storage specimens were significantly less than the dry specimens except the ones in SIE and 4.0 W groups. No significant differences in MTBSs were found in all groups after fatigue loading. The SIE group showed significantly higher MTBSs than the other study groups after water storage and fatigue loading. In general, it could be concluded that water and cyclic fatigue environment could affect the resin-zirconia bonding. Subjects: Dental resins Dental bonding Surface treatments Zirconium oxide

Book Bonding to Ceramics

Download or read book Bonding to Ceramics written by Alvaro Della Bona and published by . This book was released on 2009 with total page 252 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Bonding to Ceramics provides students, researchers and clinicians with detailed knowledge of ceramic structures, adhesion mechanisms, quality research design, material selection and clinical performance of dental ceramics. Based on collaborative research efforts and evidence-based clinical data, this book describes the basic properties of ceramics and the applications, failures and limitations of this material. The book features 500 clinical images, many of them in 3D, to aid the understanding of: ceramic microstructures; the basic principles and properties of ceramics; clinical applications and causes of failure. It also discusses the development of experiments to test ceramic designs, how to select the appropriate material according to the specific clinical application, as well as evidence regarding adhesive mechanisms for bonding ceramic restorations. Through examining clinical failures, the book also aims to improve clinical performance through the suggestion of improved materials, structures and designs. The ultimate aim of this book therefore is to provide the reader with the knowledge to be able to select the appropriate ceramic material and bonding technique for each clinical application.
