Effect of pre-oxidation on bonding strength of titanium to porcelain / 实用口腔医学杂志

ABSTRACT

Objective:To evaluate the effect of preoxidation on the bonding strength of titanium to porcelain.Method:12 titanium plates(25 mm?3 mm?0.5 mm) were pre-oxidated according to usual preoxidation procedure and 12 without preoxidation were used as the controls.The samples(6 in each group) were then bonded with bonding porcelain,opaque porcelain,dentin porcelain and glaze of Duceratin(Degussa) or Vita titankeramik(Vita) respectively.The bonding strength of Ti/porcelain was evaluated using three-point bending test according to ISO 9693 1990 standard. The interface of Ti/porcelain bonding was observed by SEM.Results:Bonding strength(MPa) of Ti/Duceratin preoxided group and the corresponding control was 41.910?2.778 and 33.097?5.297(P0.05),respectively.SEM observation showed inter-lock and tight bonding of Ti/porcelain in pre-oxidated interface,more cracks and gaps between Ti and porcelain in non-pre-oxidated interface.Conclusion:Pre-oxidation may improve bonding strength of Ti/Duceratin system, while has no significant effect on bonding strength of Ti/Vita titankeramik system.
