ABSTRACT
Objective: to evaluate the effect of material type and veneer thickness on the final color and shear bond strength of PEEK bilayered restorations. Material and Methods: sixty-four square-shaped core specimens (7×7×2), were fabricated by CAD/CAM technology from two high-strength polymers, BioHPP (High-Performance Polymer, group B n=32), and Pekkton® ivory (PolyEtherKetoneKetone, group P n=32) then were veneered with resin composite (crea.lign dentin A3). Specimens from each group were divided (n=16) according to the veneer layer thickness (0.5 & 1 mm), then according to the test applied (n=8), either ΔE or shear bond strength (SBS). Specimen surfaces were treated according to the manufacturer's instructions. Specimens were veneered according to the manufacturer's instructions.The mode of failure was evaluated under a stereomicroscope at 40 x magnification after the shear bond strength test. Results: data showed parametric distribution and variance homogeneity and were analyzed using two-way ANOVA. The significance level was set at p<0.05 for all tests. Statistical analysis was performed with the R statistical analysis software version 4.3.1.Results of two-way ANOVA showed that material types and veneer thicknesses had an individual significant effect on the color change. For the shear bond strength, only the sample thickness (1mm) had a significant effect (p=0.033). The majority of samples in different groups presented a mixed failure mode with all the differences being not statistically significant (p>0.05). Conclusion: the thickness of the resin composite veneer can significantly affect the final esthetic outcome and shear bond strength of a bilayered restoration.(AU)
Objetivo: avaliar o efeito do tipo de material e da espessura do revestimento na cor final e na resistência ao cisalhamento de restaurações em duas camadas de PEEK. Material e Métodos: foram fabricados 64 espécimes com núcleo de formato quadrado (7x7x2) usando tecnologia CAD/CAM a partir de dois polímeros de alta resistência, BioHPP (Polímero de Alto Desempenho, grupo B n=32) e Pekkton ivory (Polieterecetona cetona, grupo P n=32), que foram então revestidos com resina composta (crea.lign dentin A3). Os espécimes de cada grupo foram divididos (n=16) de acordo com a espessura do revestimento (0,5 e 1 mm), e depois de acordo com o teste aplicado (n=8), seja ΔE ou resistência ao cisalhamento (SBS). As superfícies dos espécimes foram tratadas de acordo com as instruções do fabricante. Os espécimes foram revestidos de acordo com as instruções do fabricante. O modo de falha foi avaliado sob um estereomicroscópio com ampliação de 40x após o teste de resistência ao cisalhamento. Resultados: os dados apresentaram distribuição paramétrica e homogeneidade de variância e foram analisados por ANOVA de duas vias. O nível de significância foi estabelecido em p<0,05 para todos os testes. A análise estatística foi realizada com o software de análise estatística R, versão 4.3.1. Os resultados da ANOVA de duas vias mostraram que os tipos de materiais e as espessuras do revestimento tiveram um efeito significativo individual na mudança de cor. Para a resistência ao cisalhamento, apenas a espessura da amostra (1mm) teve um efeito significativo (p=0,033). A maioria das amostras em diferentes grupos apresentou um modo de falha misto, com todas as diferenças não sendo estatisticamente significativas (p>0,05). Conclusão:a espessura do revestimento de resina composta pode afetar significativamente o resultado estético final e a resistência ao cisalhamento de uma restauração em duas camadas.(AU)

The highest shear bond strength was observed in group B (16.84 ± 1.84) MPa. @*Conclusion @#The surface treatment of 98% sulfuric acid etching for 5 s manifested the best bond strength between PEKK and dentin.
ABSTRACT
PURPOSE: The purpose of present study was to investigate fracture strength and mode of failure of endodontically treated teeth restored with metal cast post-core system, prefabricated fiber post system, and newly introduced polyetherketoneketone (PEKK) post-core system. MATERIALS AND METHODS: A total of 21 mandibular premolar were randomly grouped into 3 groups of 7 each according to the post material. Group A was for metal cast post core; Group B for prefabricated glass fiber post and resin core; and Group C for milled PEKK post cores. All specimens were restored with metal crown. The fracture strength of each specimen was measured by applying a static load of 135-degree to the tooth at 2 mm/min crosshead speed using a universal testing machine. After the fracture strength measurement, the mode of failure was observed. The results were analyzed using Kruscal-Wallis test and post hoc Mann-Whitney U test at confidence interval α = .05. RESULTS: Fracture resistance of PEKK post core was lower than those of cast metal post and fiber reinforced post with composite resin core. In the aspect of fracture mode most of the root fracture occurred in the metal post core, whereas the post detachment occurred mainly in the fiber reinforced post. In the case of PEKK post core, teeth and post were fractured together. CONCLUSION: It is necessary to select appropriate materials of post for extensively damaged teeth restoration and clinical application of the PEKK post seems to require more research on improvement of strength.

PURPOSE: This study aimed to assess the effect of non-thermal plasma on the shear bond strength of resin cements to polyetherketoneketone (PEKK) in comparison to other surface treatment methods. MATERIALS AND METHODS: Eighty PEKK discs were subjected to different surface treatments: (1) Untreated (UT); (2) Non-thermal plasma (NTP); (3) Sandblasting with 50 µm Al2O3 particles (SB); and (4) Sandblasting + Non-thermal plasma (SB+NTP). After each surface treatment, the contact angle was measured. Surface conditioning with Visio.Link was applied in all groups after pre-treatment. RelyX Unicem resin cement was bonded onto the PEKK specimens. After fabrication of the specimens, half of each group (n=10) was initially tested, while the other half was subjected to thermocycling (5℃ to 55℃ at 10,000 cycles). Shear bond strength (SBS) testing was performed using a universal testing machine, and failure modes were assessed using stereomicroscopy. The SBS results were analyzed statistically using one-way ANOVA followed by Tukey's post hoc test. Independent t-test was used to examine the effect of thermocycling (P < .05). RESULTS: The highest SBS values with or without thermocycling were observed with PEKK specimens that were treated with SB+NTP followed by the SB group. The lowest SBS results were observed in the UT groups. CONCLUSION: The shear bond strength between PEKK and resin cements was improved using non-thermal plasma treatment in combination with sandblasting.

In this study, the effects of surface pre-treatment and adhesive type on the shear bond strength between PEKK (polyetherketoneketone) and zirconia were analyzed by means of shear bond test and fracture aspect analysis. RI group (sand blasted with 110 µm Rocatec + silane primer applied + Premier implant cement) showed the highest shear bond strength value (9.01 MPa), followed by AI (7.94 MPa), NI (5.62 MPa), RT (2.71 MPa), AT (2.25 MPa), and NT (non-treated + Hy-bond, 1.96 MPa) groups showed the lowest values. Analysis of shear bond strength according to the type of cement showed that the group using resin cement for implant was higher than the group bonded with polycarboxylate cement regardless of the surface treatment (p < 0.05). As a result of analysis of shear bond strength according to the surface treatment, the silane primer applied to the surface of 110 µm particle size Rocatec showed the highest value (p < 0.05). The fracture patterns of the specimens were analyzed by surface treatment and cement type. Polycarboxylate cement showed better bond strength with zirconia specimen and resin cement showed higher bond strength with PEKK specimen.

PURPOSE: The object of the present study was to evaluate the shear bonding strength of composite to PEKK by applying several methods of surface treatment associated with various bonding materials. MATERIALS AND METHODS: One hundred and fifty PEKK specimens were assigned randomly to fifteen groups (n = 10) with the combination of three different surface treatments (95% sulfuric acid etching, airborne abrasion with 50 µm alumina, and airborne abrasion with 110 µm silica-coating alumina) and five different bonding materials (Luxatemp Glaze & Bond, Visio.link, All-Bond Universal, Single Bond Universal, and Monobond Plus with Heliobond). After surface treatment, surface roughness and contact angles were examined. Topography modifications after surface treatment were assessed with scanning electron microscopy. Resin composite was mounted on each specimen and then subjected to shear bond strength (SBS) test. SBS data were analyzed statistically using two-way ANOVA, and post-hoc Tukey's test (P<.05). RESULTS: Regardless of bonding materials, mechanical surface treatment groups yielded significantly higher shear bonding strength values than chemical surface treatment groups. Unlike other adhesives, MDP and silane containing self-etching universal adhesive (Single Bond Universal) showed an effective shear bonding strength regardless of surface treatment method. CONCLUSION: Mechanical surface treatment behaves better in terms of PEKK bonding. In addition, self-etching universal adhesive (Single Bond Universal) can be an alternative bonding material to PEKK irrespective of surface treatment method.

PURPOSE: The purposes of this study were to evaluate the marginal and internal gaps, and the potential clinical applications of three different methods of dental prostheses fabrication, and to compare the prostheses prepared using the silicone replica technique (SRT) and those prepared using the three-dimensional superimposition analysis (3DSA). MATERIALS AND METHODS: Five Pekkton, lithium disilicate, and zirconia crowns were each manufactured and tested using both the SRT and the two-dimensional section of the 3DSA. The data were analyzed with the nonparametric version of a two-way analysis of variance using rank-transformed values and the Tukey's post-hoc test (α = .05). RESULTS: Significant differences were observed between the fabrication methods in the marginal gap (P .350), deep chamfer (P > .719), and axial wall (P > .150). As the 3DSA method is three-dimensional, it allows for the measurement of arbitrary points. CONCLUSION: All of the three fabrication methods are valid for measuring clinical objectives because they produced prostheses within the clinically acceptable range. Furthermore, a three-dimensional superimposition analysis verification method such as the silicone replica technique is also applicable in clinical settings.

AnewmethodwasdevelopedforfastdeterminationofAlresidueinpolyetherketoneketone ( PEKK) special polymer material by graphite furnace atomic absorption spectrometry ( GF-AAS) . Instead of high temperature ashing, sample was dissolved in concentrated sulfuric acid and diluted by tetrahydrofuran, then was directly analyzed by GF-AAS. Systematical investigation was made on sample preparation, it was found that for 0. 2 g of sample weight, a clear sample solution could be obtained by heating at 220 ℃ with 2 mL of concentrated H2 SO4 for 4 min, and the obtained solution was ready for the subsequent mixing with tetrahydrofuran for sample dilution or dispersion before analysis. Redesign of the GF-AAS temperature program was also made, on the basis of the recommended program a pre-ashing step was added, which greatly helped increasing the analytical precision when the temperature was set at 400 ℃ and the total time was set at 40 s. The detection limits ( 3σ) were 38. 5 ng/g, the RSD for six parallel determinations of real samples was 2. 2%, and the recoveries for spiked tests were 99%-105%, respectively. In comparison with the traditional high-temperature ashing technique, the established method was more concise, faster and less exposed to contamination during sample preparation.
