Clinical trials of porcelain veneers for chairside colour modifications may require the use of a trial resin with various colours of tints. The bond strength effects of four different solvents used for removal of trial resin from etched porcelain specimens were investigated. Fifty-six porcelain specimens were fabricated, flattened by a metallurgically standard method, etched with hydrofluoric acid and silane treated. The specimens were divided into four groups at random. The trial resin material was cleaned with different solvents prior to bonding of a dual cure resin composite button. After bonding the specimens were stored in water at 37 degrees C for 7 days. Shear bond strength results were as follows: acetone (control) group, 12.9+/-2.9 MPa; ethanol group, 15.1+/-4.6 MPa; methanol group, 11.5+/-2.9 MPa; methylene chloride group, 11.3+/-2.4 MPa. No significant differences were measured (ANOVA, P>0.05). The results indicated that the resin-porcelain bond strengths were not affected by the type of solvent used to remove trial resin. This procedure is recommended for clinical cases when resin composite is used for the try-in of etched porcelain bonded restorations.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
