Article Citation Count: Rona, Nergiz...et.al. (2017). "Effect of electrical discharge machining on dental Y-TZP ceramic-resin bonding", Journal Of Prosthodontic Research, Vol.61, No.2, pp.158-167.Effect of electrical discharge machining on dental Y-TZP ceramic-resin bonding(Elsevier Ireland LTD, 2017) Rona, Nergiz; Yenisey, Murat; Küçüktürk, Gökhan; Gürün, Hakan; Çoğun, Can; Esen, Ziya; 3837; 52373Purpose: The study determined (i) the effects of electrical discharge machining (EDM) on the shear-bond strength (SBS) of the bond between luting resin and zirconia ceramic and (ii) zirconia ceramic's flexural strength with the three-point bending (TPB) test. Methods: Sixty 4.8 mm x 4.8 mm x 3.2 mm zirconia specimens were fabricated and divided into four groups (n = 15): SBG: sandblasted + silane, TSCG: tribochemical silica coated + silane, LTG: Er:YAG laser treated + silane, EDMG: EDM + silane. The specimens were then bonded to a composite block with a dual-cure resin cement and thermal cycled (6000 times) prior to SBS testing. The SBS tests were performed in a universal testing machine. The SBS values were statistically analyzed using ANOVA and Tukey's test. To determine flexural strength, sixty zirconia specimens were prepared and assigned to the same groups (n = 15) mentioned earlier. After surface treatment TPB tests were performed in a universal testing machine (ISO 6872). The flexural strength values were statistically analyzed using ANOVA and Tukey's test (a = 0.05). Results: The bond strengths for the four test groups (mean SD; MPa) were as follows: SBG (Control), 12.73 +/- 3.41, TSCG, 14.99 +/- 3.14, LTG, 7.93 +/- 2.07, EDMG, 17.05 +/- 2.71. The bond strength of the EDMG was significantly higher than those of the SBG and LTG (p < 0.01). The average flexural strength values for the groups SBG (Control), TSCG, LTG and EDMG were 809.47, 800.47, 679.19 and 695.71 MPa, respectively (p > 0.05). Conclusions: The EDM process improved the SBS. In addition, there was no significant adverse effect of EDM on the flexural strength of zirconia.
