“…A variety of studies of bond strength between veneering resin composite and PEEK-framework have been performed already, in which different pre-treatments of the airborne-particle abraded surface with piranha-etching [13,14,15,16], sulfuric acid [5,9,12,17] and cold plasma treatment [18,19] were tested, providing, however, some conflicting results. Some of these studies examined the influence of the adhesive on the bond strength to PEEK and the vast majority showed nevertheless adequate bonding results with MMA-based adhesive materials comparable to those of conventional framework materials like ceramic or metal alloys [14,15,16,20,21,22].…”

OBJECTIVE The aim of this study is to investigate the fracture load of different veneered PEEK 3-unit fixed dental prosthesis (FDPs) after different aging regimens. METHODS Congruently anatomically shaped 3-unit FDPs were milled using a master stl-data set and randomly divided into four groups (N = 120, n = 30 per veneering group), which were veneered using different veneering methods: (i) digital veneering with breCAM.HIPC, (ii) conventional veneering with crea.lign, (iii) conventional with crea.lign paste, and (iv) using pre-manufactured veneers visio.lign. The FDPs were then adhesively cemented on a metal abutment and fracture loads were measured in a universal testing machine (1 mm/min) before and after aging (10,000 thermal cycles, 5/55°C). Two-and one-way ANOVA followed by post hoc Scheffé tests were used for data analysis (p < 0.05). RESULTS This investigation showed an influence of the veneering method on the fracture load results independent of the aging level. The highest fracture load was measured for the FDPs with digital veneering (1882 ± 152 N at baseline, 2021 ± 184 N after thermocycling). The remaining groups showed comparable results, and no impact of thermal aging was observed. Digital and conventional veneers showed cracks in the pontic region starting from the connector area as a main failure type after loading, while the pre-manufactured veneers showed predominantly adhesive failures. CONCLUSIONS The digital veneering method showed the highest fracture load resistance. Thermal aging showed no impact on the fracture load of all tested veneered PEEK 3-unit FDPs. CLINICAL RELEVANCE According to this study results, reliable veneering of PEEK FDPs can be achieved with digital veneering. Clinical relevance According to this study results, reliable veneering of PEEK FDPs can be achieved with digital veneering.

“…4 In dentistry, PEEK is used for interim abutments, implant-supported bars, clamp material, and dental implants. 5 PEEK-blanks have a greyish/brown or pearl white, opaque color and are unsuitable for monolithic esthetic dental restorations, especially for the anterior region. Thus, veneering is required, but bonding to veneering composite resin materials remains a challenge because of the complex chemical structure of PEEK.…”

STATEMENT OF PROBLEM Polyetheretherketone (PEEK) can be used as a framework material for fixed dental prostheses (FDPs). However, information about the fracture load of veneered PEEK FDPs is still scarce. PURPOSE The purpose of this in vitro study was to investigate the influence of different PEEK surface pretreatments and adhesive systems on the fracture load of 2 differently veneered FDPs. MATERIAL AND METHODS Four hundred eighty anatomically shaped 3-unit PEEK frameworks were milled, airborne-particle abraded with 50 m alumina powder, and divided into 4 groups according to the following surface pretreatment (n=120): plasma treatment, etching with either sulfuric acid or piranha solution, and no further treatment. All groups were then allocated to 4 conditioning groups: visio.link, Ambarino P60, Signum PEEK Bond, or no conditioning. They were veneered with Signum Composite (n=15) or Signum Ceramis (n=15). Upon completion, the FDPs were thermally aged, and fracture loads and failure types were determined. Statistical analysis was performed with 3/2/1-way ANOVA with the post hoc Tukey HSD test (=.05). RESULTS The highest fracture loads were achieved without treatment in combination with visio.link (737 ±138 N). The lowest values were obtained after piranha acid etching and conditioning with visio.link (277 ±71 N); both groups were veneered with Signum Composite. The results, however, indicated no clear influence of either pretreatment or conditioning. With few exceptions, FDPs veneered with Signum Composite showed higher fracture load values compared to Signum Ceramis. After thermocycling, all FDPs showed cracks in the veneering composite resin material in the pontic region, regardless of the PEEK pretreatment or the adhesive system used. After loading, no fractures of the PEEK frameworks were evident in any FDPs, but chipping of the veneering material was observed. CONCLUSIONS With respect to the fracture types after thermocycling, pretreatment, conditioning, or veneering resin cement did not affect the fracture results.

Ö ÖZ ZE ET T Çürük, travma, restorasyonlar, erozyon, atrizyon ve abrazyon gibi birçok faktöre bağlı olarak çok fazla madde kaybı olan ve endodontik tedavi sonrası daha da zayıflayan dişlerin nasıl restore edileceği her zaman bir sorun olmuştur. Endodontik tedavili dişlerin post ve kor sistemleri ile restorasyonu diş hekimliği pratiğindeki en riskli işlemlerden biridir. Endodontik tedavi geçirmiş bir dişin restoratif ve protetik tedavisi, kalan sağlıklı dokuların miktarına, uygulanan kor restorasyonunun prognozuna, kor yapısına destek olan post çeşidine ve post yüzeyine tutuculuğu artır-maya yönelik yapılacak işlemlere, restorasyonun genel olarak yapısal ve estetik kalitesiyle, klinik adaptasyonuna bağlıdır. Günümüzde estetik beklentilerin artması ve adeziv sistemlerin gelişme-siyle birlikte post kor sistemlerinin seçenekleri artmıştır. Giderek artan estetik ve biyolojik olarak uyumlu maddelere olan talep, metal olmayan post kor sistemlerinin geliştirilmesine yol açmıştır. Fiberle güçlendirilmiş sistemler daha çok kullanılmaya başlamıştır. Bu derlemede, restorasyonların ağızda kalma oranı ve en yaygın başarısızlık tipleri açısından, döküm post kor ve fiber postlar ile ilgili retrospektif ve prospektif klinik çalışmalar gözden geçirildi. Buna ilave olarak yüzey işlemleri-nin post sistemlerinin retansiyon başarısı üzerine etkileri ve yeni bir post kor sistem olan yüksek performanslı polimer PEKK (polyetherketoneketones)'in üzerinde durulmuştur. Bu derlemenin amacı; madde kaybı çok fazla olan endodontik tedavili dişlere uygulayacağımız tedaviye karar vermekte diş hekimlerine yardımcı olmaktır.A An na ah h t ta ar r K Ke e l li i m me e l le er r: : Post-kor tekniği; endodontik tedavi görmüş dişler; literatür gözden geçirme; karbon fiberle güçlendirilmiş; cam fiber; polietereterketon; yüzey işlemleri A AB BS S T TR RA AC CT T It has always been a problem to restore teeth that have lost too much tissue due to many factors such as caries, trauma, previous restorations, erosion, attrition and abrasion, and even weakened after endodontic treatment. The restoration of endodontically treated teeth with postcore systems is one of the most risky procedure in dental practice. Restorative and prosthetic treatment of a tooth that has undergone endodontic treatment generally depends on the amount of remaining healthy tissue, the prognosis of the applied core restoration, and the clinical adaptation of the restoration with structural and aesthetic qualities. Nowadays, with the increase of aesthetic expectations and the development of adhesive systems, the choice of post-core systems has increased. Demand for increasingly aesthetically and biologically compatible materials has led to the development of non-metallic post-core systems. Fiber-reinforced systems have started to be incorporated into routine clinical care more frequently. In this survey, retrospective and prospective clinical studies dealing with cast-post-and core and fiber posts were reviewed regarding the rate of survival of restorations and the most prevalent failur...
