Abstract

:
Background. Reliable bonding between resin composite cements and high strength ceramics is difficult to achieve because of their chemical inertness and lack of silica content that makes etching impossible. The purpose of this review is to classify and analyze the existing methods and materials suggested to improve the adhesion of zirconia to dental substrate by using composite resins, in order to explore current trends in surface conditioning methods with predictable results. Methods. The current literature, examining the bond strength of zirconia ceramics, and including in vitro studies, clinical studies, and a systematic review, was analyzed. The research in the literature was carried out using PubMed and Cochrane Library databases, only papers in English, published online from 2013 to 2018. The following keywords and their combinations were used: Zirconia, 3Y-TZP, Adhesion, Adhesive cementation, Bonding, Resin, Composite resin, Composite material, Dentin, Enamel. Results. Research, in PubMed and Cochrane Library databases, provided 390 titles with abstracts. From these, a total of 93 publications were chosen for analysis. After a full text evaluation, seven articles were discarded. Therefore, the final sample was 86, including in vitro, clinical studies, and one systematic review. Various adhesive techniques with different testing methods were examined. Conclusions. Airborne-particle abrasion and tribo-chemical silica coating are the pre-treatment methods with more evidence in the literature. Increased adhesion could be expected after physico-chemical conditioning of zirconia. Surface contamination has a negative effect on adhesion. There is no evidence to support a universal adhesion protocol.

1. Introduction

In recent decades, the increasing aesthetic needs in dentistry have led to the progressive overcoming of metal-ceramic prosthesis and led to a focus on indirect metal-free restorations. Zirconia has occupied an increasingly important role, thanks to its excellent mechanical [1] and biocompatible characteristics [2]. Initially, this material was used only for all-ceramic frameworks. Subsequently, the introduction of translucent zirconia on the market, with improved aesthetic properties [3,4,5], allowed for the realization of monolithic prosthetic products with innumerable advantages: elimination of chipping risk, good mechanical properties (superior to monolithic lithium disilicate products), the possibility of processing by a CAD-CAM technique (greater standardization and quality of results, with cost reduction), manufacturing of smaller thicknesses, and a more conservative dental preparation [6]. Unfortunately, zirconia, unlike glass ceramics, is not susceptible to etching and this makes it impossible to realize the adhesive procedures. Realizing safe and standardized adhesive cementation protocols of zirconia is necessary in order to adequately complete the conservative/prosthetic treatment plan, especially when the preparation is not retentive, (due to the characteristics of the abutment or of the prosthesis design), or when it is necessary to improve the mechanical characteristics of the tooth-prosthesis complex.
Over the last few years, many adhesion techniques have been studied. Different treatments of the zirconia surface, application of primers or adhesives, and various types of resin cements have been tested. However, a standardized adhesive cementation protocol, that provides univocal and reliable results, has not been identified [7,8,9].
The data we have available today come mostly from laboratory studies that, although they are useful for guiding subsequent clinical trials, have limitations in terms of clinical evidence. Furthermore, the results obtained from such a large number of tested techniques are not directly comparable. It is difficult to generalize the results in relation to the zirconia sample, or to the materials used, considering the wide range of products available on the market.
The aim of the review is, therefore, to compare different treatments of the zirconia surface, in order to determine a valid operative protocol for adhesive cementation. The main zirconia treatments are summarized in Figure 1.

2. Materials and Methods

2.1. Search Strategy

To review the literature, the National Library of Medicine database was consulted using PubMed. The research was carried out on 2 January 2019 and the studies published from 1 January 2013 to 31 December 2018 were selected. The Cochrane Library database was also analyzed with a limitation on publication year (2013–2018). It was decided to choose this time interval to get a picture of what is the current knowledge on the subject discussed, regarding the new materials recently put on the market. Studies regarding the evaluation of the bond between zirconia and composite resins have been included in the review. The following terms and their combination were searched: “Zirconia,” “3Y-TZP,” “Adhesion,” “Adhesive cementation,” “Bonding,” “Resin,” “Composite resin,” “Composite material,” “Dentin,” and “Enamel.” The research includes laboratory studies, clinical studies, and systematic reviews.

2.2. Eligibility Criteria

Regarding laboratory studies, no exclusion criteria were set in relation to the type of test performed for the evaluation of the bonding strength. However, it is important to evaluate the ability of the adhesive bond to resist over time. In this regard, studies in which samples are subjected to at least 5000 thermocycles or at least one month of H2O storage are included in the review. Regarding clinical trials, RCTs and observational studies were included, with a follow-up, at least, of 5 years. The examined articles evaluate the clinical performance of adhesively cemented zirconia prostheses, in particular anterior cantilever prostheses, and prosthesis on inlays in the posterior sector. Studies that analyze traditional bridges with full crowns on the abutment teeth have been excluded. Inclusion criteria are listed in Table 1.

3. Results

The research carried out in PubMed (Table 2 and Table 3) and the Cochrane Library (Table 4), 370, 77, and 31 studies are obtained, respectively. The duplicates are eliminated, obtaining a total number of 390 studies. By reading the abstract, studies that are not considered relevant, those that do not meet the aging requirements, or do not meet the inclusion criteria are discarded. Regarding in vitro studies, the most common reasons for elimination were the absence of the evaluation of the bond strength and the lack of evaluation of the aging effect (no TC or TC <5000). Some studies have been eliminated because they are not relevant (e.g., adhesion of zirconia brackets or posts) or not pertinent because they do not evaluate zirconia-resin bond (e.g., bacterial adhesion to zirconia). Pilot studies and case reports have also been discarded. After this screening, 93 studies are subjected to a full-text examination.
The articles found consist mainly in laboratory studies. The clinical studies are in small numbers. Eight systematic reviews were also selected, including seven that were subsequently discarded following their full reading, since they do not meet the exclusion criteria of this review. The selected studies are summarized in Table 5 and Table 6. Table 7 lists the eliminated reviews, specifying the reason for their exclusion. Figure 2 shows the study selection process.

4. Discussion

The studies examined in this review mainly consist of laboratory studies. Five clinical studies were also found, while most of the initially included systematic reviews were eliminated because their inclusion criteria do not reflect the limits set for this review. It was decided to review various types of articles, in order to have an overall view of the current knowledge regarding the adhesion of zirconia.
Different types of tests are performed to estimate the bond strength. The most widely used is the Macro Shear, which is the easiest to set up. However, it must be considered that the type of test can partly influence the result. The preparation of the Macro Test leads to a greater heterogeneity in the distribution of stress, due to the wider adhesive interface [98]. The µShear and µTensile show lower variation coefficients and offer the possibility of analyzing different regions of the same sample [98]. In terms of results, this leads to higher bond strength values, since the smaller the area, the lower the possibility of finding a defect that limits the bond [98]. Given the heterogeneity of the results, it was decided not to directly compare the bond strength values obtained in the studies.
Long-term water storage and thermocycling are commonly used methods of artificial aging that affect the resin bond to ceramic [67,73]. This review includes both methods because, although thermocycling seem to be more reliable, contradictory results have been reported [67]. While water storage simulates aging due to water uptake and hydrolytic degradation, thermocycling represents in vitro hydrothermal aging [7]. The number of cycles varied greatly in the in vitro studies [7], which is a standardized protocol for thermocycling that permits a comparison across different studies that is not available [67]. It was decided to match the ISO norm 10477, where the minimum number of TC was proposed 5000, to assess metal-resin bond [7]. The increased number of cycles above 5.000 that was up to 10.000 or 20.000 do not significantly affect the result [15]. The frequency of cycling in vivo remains to be determined at present and requires formal estimation [7,8,9,10,11,12,13,14,15,16,17,18,19,20,21,22,23,24,25,26,27,28,29,30,31,32,33,34,35,36,37,38,39,40,41,42,43,44,45,46,47,48,49,50,51,52,53,54,55,56,57,58,59,60,61,62,63,64,65,66,67,68,69,70,71,72,73,74,75,76,77,78,79,80,81,82,83,84,85,86,87,88,89,90,91,92,93,94,95,96,97,98,99]. In this study, water storage for a period of one month was the cut off value. Several studies used the same aging protocol, observed a significant decrease in bond strength between the ceramic-cement interface, which proved that this time interval is sufficient to promote a degradation of this interface [16].
Regarding in vitro studies, the main zirconia adhesion protocols involve a mechanical conditioning phase and then the application of chemical adhesion promoters. The use of silane is rationally justified where a layer of silica (e.g., silica-coating, glaze on technique) was created [55], while, on polycrystalline zirconia, solutions based on functional monomers are used [47].
Sandblasting is a process that uses the energy released by the impact of alumina particles (Al2O3), emitted by a high-speed source. The impact involves the erosion of the material with the formation of a rough, clean, and wettable surface [49]. However, sandblasting can also lead to the formation of surface damage, defects, and cracks. Therefore, the mechanical characteristics of zirconia can be compromised [100]. It is advisable to carry out sandblasting according to adequate parameters in relation to pressure, distance from the source, and particle size. Souza [101] recommends to carry out the sandblasting process using small particles (30 µm) with moderate pressure (2.5 bar) in order to avoid material damages. In 2013, Ozcan [102] proposes a protocol for blasting zirconia, with alumina particles with a diameter between 30 and 50 µm, at a pressure between 0.5 and 2.5 bar for a duration of at least 20 s. The blast jet must be positioned 10 mm from the target, and kept in motion, so as not to create defects.
The laser is proposed in zirconia adhesion as a mechanical conditioning technique. The goal is to increase the surface roughness, in order to create a micromechanical interconnection with the resin. Nd: YAG laser is not able to guarantee satisfactory roughness and adhesion values, which also modifies the power set and time of application [80]. Zirconia overheating causes cracks, residual stress, and monoclinic transformation. Regarding Er: YAG laser, a setting of 2 W produces good roughness, like alumina sandblasting treatment, but the surface shows cracks and defects [35]. Laser application with energy intensity of 400 or 600 mJ is associated with material deterioration, while, with lower values (200 mJ), satisfactory adhesion is not obtained [72,79]. An ultra-short pulse laser (Yb: YAG) has been studied for zirconia conditioning. It emits impulses in the order of 6 picoseconds, with a power of 9 W. The shortness of the impulses allows the rapid removal of small amounts of material that have absorbed the energy of the laser by overheating, without considerable mechanical and thermal damage to the rest of the sample. SEM analysis shows a rough surface without surface defects. In terms of µTBS, the laser treatment seems to be superior to tribo-chemical silica-coating and alumina-sandblasting after a month of water storage [34].
Electrical Discharge Machine (EDM) is an unconventional method that leads to erosion of material through electrical impulses in a dielectric medium. In terms of Shear Bond Strength (SBS), the EDM technique obtains good results. However, by SEM analysis, surface cracks can be highlighted [35].
Zirconia is considered to be an inert material. The surface cannot be activated with hydrofluoric acid etching because it does not act on the crystalline component. Anyway, various acid solutions have been proposed to etch zirconia, based on hydrofluoric and nitric acid applied at a temperature of 100 °C. Acid etching of the zirconia surface with these modalities is less effective than Tribological-chemical treatment [52]. Other authors get positive results for some experimental solutions. Xie [71] obtains good results for adhesion protocols involving hot etching and application of 10-MDP primers. In another study [31], an experimental acid solution (800 mL of ethanol, 200 mL of 37% HCl, and 2 g of ferric chloride) is tested. It seems to be able to dissolve the surface of the zirconia and guarantee good adhesion. The solution is applied at a temperature of 100 °C for 1 hour. Xie [22] gets good results by the use of a 40% HF solution. Although these techniques seem, in some cases, able to promote adhesion [22,31,71], it must be evaluated by the possible negative effects of the use of these methods, which are linked mainly to clinical safety [22].
Sandblasting, like other exclusively mechanical treatments, is able to modify the zirconia surface. However, it is essential to associate these treatments with the use of chemical promoters, capable of improving adhesion. Today 10-MDP-based cements and primers are used for this purpose [14]. Primers contain organophosphate monomers, including 10-MDP, 6-MHPA, or 4-META. The 10-MDP presents a terminal functional group with phosphoric acid, which reacts with zirconia and forms P-O-Zr bonds. The other end of the molecule is occupied by a vinyl terminal group, which allows the copolymerization with the resin. These two functional groups are separated by a carbon chain, which is responsible for characteristics such as viscosity, rigidity, hydrophobicity, and solubility. Solutions containing 10-MDP can promote better adhesion than those containing 4-META, MAC-10, or 3-TMSPMA [24,25,40,47,68]. Chemical adhesion increase occurs as well with a self-adhesive composite cement. However, the use of 10- MDP cement alone does not seem to be able to maintain good adhesion levels after thermocycling [46,49,76]. The use of a 10-MDP based primer is able to increase the bond strength both with a self-adhesive composite (based on 10-MDP or other functional monomers) and traditional composite cement [40,44,46,66]. It seems to be important to use a sufficiently fluid cement to benefit from the effects of sandblasting, despite the kind of composite. Regardless of the results obtained by the various studies, the authors agree that thermocycling strongly affects the bond between sandblasted zirconia and 10-MDP-based materials, which puts the long-term reliability of this adhesion protocol at risk [30,37,81].
Tribochemical silica-coating (TBS) is another method used to promote adhesion to zirconia. This is a sandblasting process that is carried out using alumina-particles covered with silica, which impacts against the surface of the ceramic, as well as creates an irregular surface while releasing silica. The presence of this vitreous component allows the use of silane as a coupling agent. It binds both to the composite and to the silica deposited on the zirconia and improves adhesion [55]. TBS is carried out mainly by two methods: the Rocatec system consists of a traditional sandblasting pretreatment, and a subsequent use of silica-coated alumina particles (110 µm). The Cojet system uses coated alumina particles of silica (30 µm) and can be applied by the chair. The size of the particles used for alumina sandblasting (50 µm and 120 µm) or for tribological-chemical treatment (30 µm and 110 µm) does not affect SBS [57]. The use of a primer containing silane and 10-MDP allows the achievement of a better bond between composite and zirconia compared to the application of silane alone [32,38,85]. The silicatization process, with the tribological-chemical method, is not uniform on the surface of the zirconia. Where there are still areas not covered by silica, 10-MDP acts on the surfaces.
TBS appears to be more resistant to thermocycling than other treatments. According to thermodynamic calculations, the bond between silica and silane is more resistant to hydrolysis than the bond between zirconia and 10-MDP [45]. Several studies agree that TBS, followed by the application of silane-containing primer, is more stable than alumina sandblasting followed by the application of 10-MDP-based primers [28,71]. Other authors, on the other hand, obtain good results for adhesion protocols that involve alumina-sandblasting, with adhesion values comparable to TBS [32,58,60].
Sandblasting with feldspathic ceramic powder appears to have promising results in terms of SBS when compared to the use of silica-coated alumina, with a lower t-m transformation rate and stable results after thermocycling [33]. The use of rotary tools, discs, and diamond burs is not suitable for the treatment of zirconia [8,49]. The zirconia hardness involves the use of aggressive techniques, that inevitably lead to cracks and surface damage.
Zirconia is a polycrystalline ceramic, not conventionally etched with acid [54]. In order to promote adhesion, some authors have studied the possibility of applying, on the zirconia surface, a glassy layer, which is rich in silicon oxides. Zirconia can, thus, be treated like a glass ceramic. It is etched with hydrofluoric acid and the silane is applied as a coupling agent. This molecule has two different functional groups: the -SiOH group binds to the hydroxyl groups of silica coated surface forming a siloxane bond (Si-O-Si) and other functional groups of the silane (>C=C<) bind to the methacrylate of the resin [56]. The thickness occupied by the glass ceramic layer deposited on the inner surface of the zirconia restorations can lead to a marginal misfit. Moreover, some authors focus on the fragility of this vitreous layer that can start surface defects and crack propagation. The application of a glass ceramic coating, subsequently etched with HF, seems to guarantee good adhesion [46,74]. There is a superiority of spray application systems rather than powder/liquid systems with a clinically acceptable marginal misfit (≈10 µm) [52,78,83,85]. Some authors mark a reduction in the bond strength after artificial aging methods, explained by the fact that the glass ceramic layer is not well bound to zirconia. The bond occurs through weak micromechanical interlocking and Van der Waals interactions susceptible to hydrolysis [97].
Silica deposition on zirconia, which allows the use of silane as a coupling agent, is also pursued by Magnetron-sputtering Physical Vapor Deposition (PVD). Sputtering is a technique for realizing thin films, which allows us to deposit both metallic materials and insulating materials on a substrate. This method of SiO2 deposition on the zirconia surface does not guarantee adhesion results comparable to those obtained with traditional treatments [63,86].
The silicatization of the zirconia surface is also obtained through “pyrochemical” techniques. The Silano-Pen system, for example, consists of a lighter containing a solution of butane and silane. When the butane is burned, the silane compound decomposes into SiOx-C fragments that adhere to zirconia, which can be silanized. This method is not sufficiently effective to promote a stable and lasting bond to the composite [8,49].
Zirconia can be modified with a technique called Selective Infiltration Etching (SIE): the ceramic is coated with silica-based material, with a thermal expansion coefficient similar to the zirconia one. During the fusion (when the temperature of 960 °C is reached), this material diffuses in the zirconia structure. Then hydrofluoric acid is applied for about 10 minutes in order to dissolve the glass component completely. The surface of the zirconia appears to be irregular [41,54].
With regard to the cementation phase, the main alternative to composites is the use of a traditional glass ionomer cement, or a CVI modified with resin. In terms of adhesion, the composite cements have better results [10,73]. Regarding the class of resin cements, the choice can essentially fall into two categories: traditional cements or self-adhesive cements. With traditional composites, the bond strength is linked to the effectiveness of preliminary treatments. For mechanical treatment and primer association, they are also less viscous, which may favor penetration into surface micro-porosities and resistance over time. Self-adhesive cements can bind to zirconia, but are not able to, alone, maintain stable long-term adhesion, which are more susceptible to hydrolysis. The association of mechanical conditioning and chemical promoters is essential [37,57,67]. Self-adhesive cement composition can be made of different functional monomers. According to some authors, the 10-MDP self-adhesive cements give better adhesion values [79,87]. In other studies, there is no clear superiority of a cement category [58].
The zirconia prosthesis can be contaminated during the clinical phases: blood, saliva, impression materials, and other contaminants can deposit on the material and interfere with the adhesion mechanism [43]. Cements and primers, by the presence of phosphate groups in their structure, interact with the surface of the zirconia. If contaminants are present, sites that could be occupied by the phosphate monomers become inactive [8]. Some treatments such as cleansing with H2O, H2O2, ethanol, or acetone, the application of orthophosphoric acid, ethyl cellulose-based paints, ultrasonic cleaning, or plasma treatment are all ineffective in removing contaminants [13,43,51,53,62]. Sandblasting with Al2O3 powder is the most effective method for removing contaminants, even though it can weaken the structure of zirconia if carried out several times on the material. Cleansing with NaOCl-solutions or with the cleaning paste Ivoclean (Ivoclar Vivodent, Schaan, Liechtenstein) (sodium hydroxide, ZrO2, water, polyethylene glycol, pigments) seem a valid alternative in the consideration of costs and practicality, and the possible deterioration of the zirconia structure [20,51,53]. The effectiveness of Ivoclean, which is composed of an aqueous solution containing zirconium particles, is based on the chemical affinity between the components of the solution and the saliva contaminants [53]. If saliva contamination occurs when zirconia has already been treated with 10-MDP primer, just 20 seconds of water spray rinsing seems to be sufficient to bring the bond strength back to values comparable to the control group, in which no contamination was made [43]. With the application of the primer, the hydrophobic methacrylate terminations of the 10-MDP molecule are exposed on the surface. This involves the creation of a water-repellent surface that reduces the possibility of saliva, composed of 99% water, to wet the ceramic [43]. Furthermore, if phosphoric acid treatment or Ivoclean application are carried out after primer application, the Shear Bond Strength values decrease, likely to remove the coating of MDP either from a chemical interaction, mechanical debridement from the micro-brush, or both [43].
The introduction of translucent zirconia on the market allowed the realization of monolithic prosthetic products. In relation to this, interest is growing in realizing safe and standardized adhesive cementation protocols of zirconia. It is important to observe the differences on the possibility of conditioning, between traditional and translucent zirconia. Only a few recent studies evaluate the possibility of adhesion of this material. Results show that bonding of highly translucent zirconia exhibits behavior similar to that of traditional 3Y-TZP [12,24].
To date, there are still few clinical studies on the realization of Resin Bonded Fixed Dental Prosthesis (RBFDP). Only five articles were found that meet our inclusion criteria and no one involves full zirconia restorations. Two clinical studies [91,92] concern the outcome of posterior inlay-retained fixed dental prosthesis. The results are contrasting. The longevity of the restorations is to be attributed to the modification of the inlay design (palatine and vestibular extension) rather than the effectiveness of adhesive cementation. Other clinical studies, regarding the realization of incisors cantilever resin-bonded fixed dental prostheses, show good clinical longevity [90,93,94].
Regarding the systematic review included, Thammajaruk [103] collected papers only up to 2016. The meta-analysis compares bond strength results from different kinds of tests (micro and macro). Notwithstanding that, the present review partly agrees with their results.
It could also be useful to broaden the search, including the “Scopus” and “Scholar” databases, to have an even wider view on the subject.
Clinical recommendations are difficult to give, for two main reasons such as the small number of clinical studies found in the literature and the difficulty in comparing laboratory studies that evaluate a number of techniques and obtain often conflicting results. Further in vitro studies, that investigate promising techniques and own better homogeneity on the test set-up characteristics, as well as further clinical trials, are needed to have more evidence to support an adhesion protocol with certain predictable results.

5. Conclusions

In literature, we find a variety of adhesion protocols, including the use of different zirconia treatment methods, various adhesion media, different tests, and storage times. The results are difficult to compare.
The combination of a mechanical and chemical treatment is essential for good adhesion. Protocols with greater evidence in the literature include sandblasting with silica-coated particles (that allows the association of silane primers) and traditional alumina sandblasting (combined with the use of chemical promoters like 10-MDP-based products). The latter has less evidence of long-term stability. Other methods involving the silicatization of zirconia obtain promising results that must be validated by further studies.
The choice of the composite cement is less relevant.
Surface contamination has a negative effect on adhesion.
New highly traslucent zirconia shows a similar behavior, in terms of adhesion, to traditional 3Y-TZP.
An adhesion protocol that provides unequivocal results has not yet been identified.
