    Abstract:
    The goal of this study was to test the influence of the type and oxidation treatment of dental casting alloys on the tensile bond strength of luting cements. Also, the influence of film thickness of luting cements on the tensile bond strength of different dental casting alloys was examined. Four different luting cements (zinc phosphate, polycarboxylate, glass ionomer and adhesive resin cements) and four different dental casting alloys (Au-Ag-Cu, Ag-Pd, hardened Ag-Pd and Ni-Cr alloys) were used. Cylindrical alloy rods for the tensile bond strength test were casted, and then, top surfaces of the rods were cemented with each luting cement to the bottom surfaces of other rods, using the film thickness adjustment apparatus. The film thickness of luting cement was adjusted to 20, 30, 50, 75 or 100 microns. The tensile bond strengths of each cement to different casting alloys at each film thickness were measured one day after the rods had been cemented. The tensile bond strength of the zinc phosphate cement could not be determined in this study due to the separation of the alloy rods cemented with the zinc phosphate cement in water before the tensile test. The tensile bond strength to the adhesive resin cement to any alloy showed the greatest strength; however, that of the glass ionomer cement to any alloy was the lowest strength among the cements examined. The Ni-Cr alloy had the highest bond strength of any luting cement, compared to other alloys. The tensile bond strengths of luting cements significantly decreased with the increase in film thickness of cement layer. The adhesive resin cement had the greatest bond strength, and the glass ionomer cement was the lowest bond strength at any film thickness. The oxidation treatment significantly increased the bond strength of the adhesive resin cement to both Au-Ag-Cu and Ag-Pd alloys. The tensile bond strength of the adhesive resin cement was most dependent upon the film thickness of cement layer, and that of the polycarboxylate cement was least dependent upon the film thickness of cement layer among the cements examined. In addition, the oxidation treatment for precious alloys could be a factor contributing to the increase in the bond strength of the adhesive resin cement.
