Objectives: The purpose <strong>of</strong> this study was to compare an<br />

oxy-fluoride surface activation process to o<strong>the</strong>r techniques<br />

used to enhance adhesion <strong>of</strong> dental materials to zirconia surfaces.<br />

The effect <strong>of</strong> this novel pre-treatment on <strong>the</strong> adhesive<br />

strength to both as-received and mechanically roughened surfaces<br />

will be presented along with a discussion <strong>of</strong> bonding<br />

mechanisms, <strong>the</strong>ir advantages and limitations.<br />

<strong>Materials</strong> and methods: The study leverages a novel gasphase<br />

fluorination process that creates a thin oxy-fluoride<br />

conversion layer on <strong>the</strong> surface <strong>of</strong> zirconia, making it more<br />

reactive to conventional adhesive bonding protocols. Zirconia<br />

specimens, polished and roughened, were pre-treated and<br />

both composite and zirconia cylinders were bonded to <strong>the</strong>m<br />

using conventional adhesive techniques. All specimens were<br />

subjected to a shear force at a crosshead speed <strong>of</strong> 0.5 mm/min<br />

in an electro-mechanical testing device. Single factor analysis<br />

<strong>of</strong> variance (ANOVA) at a 5% confidence level was performed<br />

for <strong>the</strong> bonding strength data. Optical and scanning electron<br />

microscopy was used to evaluate and quantify failure surfaces.<br />

Results: Data for composite-to-zirconia shear bond tests,<br />

comparing <strong>the</strong> oxy-fluoride activation to o<strong>the</strong>r surface treatments,<br />

conventional and recently reported. The fluorinated<br />

roughened zirconia surfaces resulted in <strong>the</strong> highest shear<br />

bond stress to fracture, while demonstrating <strong>the</strong> highest<br />

(90%) occurrence <strong>of</strong> mixed mode (adhesive/cohesive) failures<br />

(Table 1).<br />

Conclusions: Simple shear bond mechanical tests demonstrated<br />

that a fluorination pre-treatment is a viable method<br />

to chemically activate zirconia surfaces for improved adhesive<br />

bonding. Data show that even on polished zirconia, <strong>the</strong><br />

oxy-fluoride activation is as-good, or better than conventional<br />

pre-treatments.<br />

Objectives: To compare <strong>the</strong> bond strength values <strong>of</strong> two<br />

luting cements to Y-TZP ceramics having different surface<br />

treatments: feldsphatic liner application and tribochemical<br />

silica coating.<br />

<strong>Materials</strong> and methods: Zirconia tablets made <strong>of</strong> Lava and<br />

IPS e.max ZirCAD were surface treated with two feldsphatic<br />

liners (Framework Modifier and Intensive Zirliner Brown)<br />

or tribochemical silica coating (CoJet) and bonded to resin<br />

composite cylinders using two chemically different cements<br />

(Panavia F 2.0 and RelyX UniCem). Specimens with untreated<br />

surface served as controls. The specimens were <strong>the</strong>rmally<br />

cycled at 5–55 ◦ C, <strong>the</strong>n shear bond strength (SBS) test was used<br />

to evaluate <strong>the</strong> bonding. Twelve specimens were tested for<br />

each group (n = 12). Data were analyzed with one-way ANOVA<br />

and Tukey’s test (˛ = 0.05). Failure pattern analysis was performed<br />

using a stereomicroscope and SEM.<br />

significant differences (p > 0.05). For each vertical column: values with identical<br />

numbers indicate no statistically significant differences (p > 0.05).<br />

Conclusions: Within <strong>the</strong> limits <strong>of</strong> this study, tribochemical<br />

treatment with CoJet may represent <strong>the</strong> method <strong>of</strong><br />
