Abstract Objective The study aims to investigate the shear bond strength (SBS) between silicate ceramic restorations and ceramic brackets after different pretreatments and aging methods. Material and methods Leucite (LEU) and lithium disilicate (LiSi) specimens were pretreated with (i) 4% hydrofluoric acid + silane (HF), (ii) Monobond Etch&Prime (MEP), (iii) silicatization + silane (CoJet), and (iv) SiC grinder + silane (SiC). Molars etched (phosphoric acid) and conditioned acted as comparison group. SBS was measured after 24 h (distilled water, 37 °C), 500 × thermocycling (5/55 °C), and 90 days (distilled water, 37 °C). Data was analyzed using Shapiro–Wilk, Kruskal–Wallis with Dunn’s post hoc test and Bonferroni correction, Mann–Whitney U, and Chi2 test (p < 0.05). The adhesive remnant index (ARI) was determined. Results LEU pretreated with MEP showed lower SBS than pretreated with HF, CoJet, or SiC. LiSi pretreated with MEP resulted in lower initial SBS than pretreated with HF or SiC. After thermocycling, pretreatment using MEP led to lower SBS than with CoJet. Within LiSi group, after 90 days, the pretreatment using SiC resulted in lowest SBS values. After HF and MEP pretreatment, LEU showed lower initial SBS than LiSi. After 90 days of water storage, within specimens pretreated using CoJet or SiC showed LEU higher SBS than LiSi. Enamel presented higher or comparable SBS values to LEU and LiSi. With exception of MEP pretreatment, ARI 3 was predominantly observed, regardless the substrate, pretreatment, and aging level. Conclusions MEP pretreatment presented the lowest SBS values, regardless the silicate ceramic and aging level. Further research is necessary. Clinical relevance There is no need for intraoral application of HF for orthodontic treatment.

Purpose: The aim of this study was to evaluate the effect of six different surface conditioning methods on the shear bond strength of ceramic brackets bonded to feldspathic porcelain. Materials and methods: A total of 60 feldspathic porcelain disks were fabricated and divided into six subgroups including 10 specimens in each. Specimens were first treated one of the following surface conditioning methods, namely, 37% phosphoric acid (G-H3PO4), 9.4% hydrofluoric acid (G-HF), grinding with diamond burs (G-Grinding), Nd:YAG laser (G-Nd:YAG), Airborne-particle abrasion (G-Abrasion). Specimens were also coated with silane without surface treatment for comparison (G-Untreated). A total of 60 ceramic brackets were bonded to porcelain surfaces with a composite resin and then subjected to thermocycling 2500× between 5°C and 55°C. The shear bond strength test was carried out using a universal testing device at a crosshead speed of 0.5 mm/min. Failure types were classified according to the adhesive remnant index. Analysis of variance and Tukey tests were used for statistical analysis (α = 0.05). Microstructure of untreated and surface-treated specimens was investigated by scanning electron microscopy. Results: Using G-Abrasion specimens resulted in the highest shear bond strength value of 8.58 MPa for feldspathic porcelain. However, the other specimens showed lower values: G-Grinding (6.51 MPa), G-Nd:YAG laser (3.37 MPa), G-HF (2.71 MPa), G-H3PO4 (1.17 MPa), and G-Untreated (0.93 MPa). Conclusion: Airborne-particle abrasion and grinding can be used as surface treatment techniques on the porcelain surface for a durable bond strength. Hydrofluoric acid and phosphoric acid etching methods were not convenient as surface treatment methods for the feldspathic porcelain.

Introduction: An orthodontist has two clinical situations in which he is confronted with ceramics: 1. Use of ceramic brackets 2. Applying brackets on teeth with ceramic restorations. Aim: The present study wishes to emphasize the advantages and the disadvantages that the use of ceramics has brought to the orthodontic profession. Material And Method: 75 consecutive adult orthodontic patients after being presented with their treatment plan were administered a questioner to motivate their choice in the type of braces and the cases with aesthetic braces or which had ceramic restorations prior to orthodontics received a special follow-up threw-out their treatment. Results: Ceramic braces are chosen for aesthetic reasons but sometimes they create other type of problems during treatment. Adhesion between braces and ceramic restorations rests problematic. Conclusions: The use of ceramics in orthodontics was indispensable but dental materials still need to be perfected.

Das Forschungsprojekt „Prozessintegrierte Softsensorik zur Oberflächenkonditionierung beim Außenlängsdrehen von 42CrMo4“ widmet sich der Entstehung und der In-process-Erfassung von industriell relevanten Randschichtzuständen. Im Speziellen werden sogenannte White Layer und Eigenspannungszustände untersucht. Durch die modulare Verknüpfung von zerstörungsfreier Prüftechnik, Simulationsergebnissen und Prozesswissen mittels Datenfusion wird ein Softsensor erforscht. Dieser soll im Rahmen einer adaptiven Regelung des Drehprozesses eingesetzt werden und eine gezielte Einstellung von vorteilhaften Randschichtzuständen erlauben. The research project „Process-integrated soft sensor technology for surface conditioning during external longitudinal turning of 42CrMo4“ is dedicated to the formation and in-process-detection of surface layers with industrial relevance. In particular, so-called white layers and residual stresses are investigated. A soft sensor is being researched through the modular combination of non-destructive testing technology and process knowledge by means of data fusion. This is to be used in the context of an adaptive control of the turning process in order to adjust beneficial surface states.
