Bond strength of 4META-MMA-TBB resin to a CAD/CAM composite resin block and analysis of acetone-insoluble cured resin residues at adhesive interfaces

抄録

This study investigated the adhesion of 4META-MMA-TBB resin to CAD/CAM composite resin blocks. CAD/CAM composite resin blocks were subjected to alumina blasting, ceramic primer treatment, or both, and then bonded with 4META-MMA-TBB resin. The tensile bond strength of 4META-MMA-TBB resin to blocks without surface treatment was approximately 20 MPa, but with surface treatment, it significantly improved to approximately 40 MPa. Cohesive failure was observed in some blocks with surface treatment with both alumina blasting and ceramic primer. As a result of Soxhlet extraction of the adhesive interface with acetone solvent and FT-IR spectrum analysis, it was found that PMMA remained on the block surface when surface treatment with both alumina blasting and ceramic primer were performed. These results demonstrated that the bond strength of 4META-MMA-TBB resin is significantly improved when both alumina blasting and ceramic primer are applied as surface pretreatment to the CAD/CAM composite resin block.
