Abstract

Dental ceramic materials are subject to damage when in use. A conventional surface treatment used to repair dental material include etching with hydrofluoric acid, sandblasting, and griding by diamond bur. However, those methods face limitations and various difficulties as well as can be hazardous. This study, therefore, aimed to present an experimental research design to compare the shear bond strength between resin composites and polymer-infiltrated ceramic-network material (PICN) using varying surface treatments to simulate the repair of PICN. The PICN blocks were cut for forty specimens and sorted randomly into five groups. The PICN surface was pre-treated with hydrofluoric acid (HF) and self-etched ceramic primer, followed by both the application of silane and forgoing silane. In the next step, the resin composite was bonded to the PICN surface using a putty index. The specimens were tested for their shear bond strength. Data were analyzed using One-Way ANOVA and Tukey’s Test (α = 0.05). Modes of Failure were examined under a stereomicroscope at ×40 magnification. The surface prior to silane application was examined using a scanning electron microscope. The PICN surface that was treated with HF followed by silane yielded the best results because HF etched the surface greater than MEP and silane had a chemical reaction with the PICN, resulting in a greater bond. However, there was no significant difference between the MEP and the MEP followed by silane (p < 0.05). All groups undergoing surface treatment yielded optimal repair bond strength. Hydrofluoric acid followed by silane is still the gold standard to repair the PICN but self-etching ceramic primer offers another good alternative.
