Abstract

PURPOSE
Shear bond strength (SBS) test is the most commonly used method for evaluating resin bond strength of zirconia, but SBS results vary among different studies even when evaluating the same bonding strategy. The purpose of this study was to promote standardization of the SBS test in evaluating zirconia ceramic bonding and to investigate factors that may affect the SBS value of a zirconia/resin cement/composite resin bonding specimen.
MATERIALS AND METHODS
The zirconia/resin cement/composite resin bonding specimens were used to simulate loading with a shear force by the three-dimensional finite element (3D FE) modeling, in which stress distribution under uniform/non-uniform load, and different resin cement thickness and different elastic modulus of resin composite were analyzed. In vitro SBS test was also performed to validate the results of 3D FE analysis.
RESULTS
The loading flat width was an important affecting factor. 3D FE analysis also showed that differences in resin cement layer thickness and resin composite would lead to the variations of stress accumulation area. The SBS test result showed that the load for preparing a SBS specimen is negatively correlated with the resin cement thickness and positively correlated with SBS values.
CONCLUSION
When preparing a SBS specimen for evaluating bond performance, the load flat width, the load applied during cementation, and the different composite resins used affect the SBS results and therefore should be standardized.

  • Fig. 1 Sectional views of von Mises stress of the finite element model simulating the shear bond test. Thickness of the resin composite was 1 mm (A), 2 mm (B), 3 mm (C – G) and 4 mm (D – H). The load flat applied on the cylinder was 1 mm (C, H), 2 mm (D, I), 3 mm (E, J), 4 mm (F, K) and 5 mm (G, H). The sectional views were derived from the entire view. When cylinder thickness was 1 mm or 2 mm, different loading area resulted in same maximum principal stress.

  • Fig. 2 Sectional views of von Mises stress of the finite element model simulating the shear bond test. Thickness of the resin cement was 50 µm (A, E), 80 µm (B, F), 100 µm (C, G) and 180 µm (D, H). The force applied on the cylinder was 50 N (A, B, C, D) and 300 N (E, F, G, H). The sectional views were derived from the entire view. Among the modeled thicknesses, the peak value of maximum principal stress was found in the 50 µm thick cement simulation, followed by 80, 100, and 180 µm, which occurred at the top of the resin cement/resin composite interface in all cases. The stress distribution areas for either the 50 or 300 N loads were similar, with the exception of the principal stress values.

  • Fig. 3 Sectional views of von Mises stress of the finite element model simulating the shear bond test. The resin composite was Filtek Z100 (A, D), Filtek Z250 (B, E) and Filtek Z350 (C, F). The force applied on the cylinder was 50 N (A, B, C) and 300 N (D, E, F). The sectional views were derived from the entire view. Among the modeled resin composites, the peak value of maximum principal stress was found in the Filtek Z250 simulation, followed by Filtek Z350 and Filtek Z100, which occurred at the top of the resin cement/resin composite interface in all cases. The stress distribution areas for either the 50 or 300 N loads were similar, with the exception of the principal stress values.

  • Fig. 7 Schematic diagram of a zirconia/resin cement/composite resin structure shear bond strength bonding specimen in a cantilever beam structure. When the load flat width is not less than the length of l, the loading force is uniform, and the bending moment (M) of the cantilever beam is 1/2ql2, where q is the load and l is the length of the cantilever beam; when the loading force is not uniform, the load flat width is less than the length of l, the bending moment of the a segment (without load) is 0, and the bending moment of the b segment (the length under load) is 1/2qb2.
