Journal of Ceramic Science and Technology

The Journal of Ceramic Science and Technology publishes original scientific articles on all topics of ceramic science and technology from all ceramic branches. The focus is on the scientific exploration of  the relationships between processing, microstructure and properties of sintered ceramic materials as well as on new processing routes for innovative ceramic materials. The papers may have either theoretical or experimental background. A high quality of publications will be guaranteed by a thorough double blind peer review process.

The Journal is published by Göller Verlag GmbH on behalf of the Deutsche Keramische Gesellschaft (DKG). Edited by Yu-Ping Zeng, Shanghai Institute of Ceramics, Chinese Academy of Sciences, China.

Abstract

The influence of a Ho:YAG laser and nano-hydroxyapatite (HAp) coating on the surface roughness (Ra) and shear bond strength (SBS) of lithium disilicate ceramics (LDC) bonded to dentin with resin cement of varying viscosity following exposure to thermal aging has been studied. One hundred and fifty-three LDC discs were prepared and randomly allocated into three groups, based on their surface pretreatment. Group 1: 10 % HFA + S, Group 2: Ho:YAG laser, and Group 3: Nano-HAp coating. Ra was measured using a profilometer and the surface topography was assessed by means of scanning electron microscopy (SEM). Adhesion of prepared LDC discs to the dentinal substrate was performed using high-viscosity and low-viscosity resin cement and the discs were exposed to different storage conditions. Their SBS and failure were assessed with a UTM and stereomicroscope. One-way ANOVA and Tukey post-hoc tests were used for intergroup comparison. Group 2 (Ho:YAG laser) exhibited the highest Ra scores and Group 3 (HAp coatings) demonstrated the lowest Ra value. Group 2A (Ho:YAG laser + HIGH) samples achieved the highest SBS values at baseline. However, Group 3A (HAp coatings + HIGH) displayed the lowest bond score. A Ho:YAG laser and nano-HA can be used as an alternative surface conditioning regime with a positive influence on Ra and SBS of LDC.
