Microshear Bond Strength of Resin Bonding Systems to Machinable Ceramic with Different Surface Treatments Xiangfeng M et al. - For three RBSs, bond strength at TC 0 was not affected, regardless of ceramic surface treatment. All combined groups of ceramic surface treatment and resin bonding system decreased after 10,000 thermal cycles, especially groups treated with alumina blasting and bonded with each of three RBSs. MBS/HB/VLIIHV with each surface treatment did not improve the bond strength and durability compared with MBS/VLIIHV. [more...]
