Bonding of composite cements to zirconia: A systematic review and meta-analysis of in vitro studies.
OBJECTIVES: The aim of this study was to systematically review the literature and statistically analyze bond strength data to identify the influence that composite cements, type of test methodology, chemical and mechanical pre-treatments have on the bond strength of composite cements to zirconia in three different artificial aging conditions.
METHODS: The literature was electronically searched in MEDLINE, PUBMED, EMBASE, and SCOPUS to select relevant articles that evaluated the bond strength between zirconia and composite cements. A manual search was performed by scanning the reference lists of included studies. All articles were published online before December 2016 and in English. From electronic database and manual searches, 444 studies were identified; 161 articles with 1632 test results met the inclusion criteria. Test results were assigned into 3 aging conditions: non-aged, intermediate-aged and aged groups. Generalized estimating equations (GEE) were used to explore actual mean bond strengths. As the bond strength is a non-negative value, lognormal distribution was used.
RESULTS: In non-aged condition, data showed statistically significant interactions between cement type and type of test. There was no statistically significant interaction between mechanical and chemical pre-treatments. In intermediate-aged and aged conditions, data showed no statistically significant interactions between mechanical and chemical pre-treatments and between cement type and type of test.
CONCLUSIONS: This meta-analysis appeared to indicate that mechanical pre-treatments, and in particular ceramic coating, combined with methacryloyloxydecyl dihydrogen phosphate (MDP) containing primers yielded the highest long-term bond strength (aged-condition). However, data are limited and caution should be exercised before applying these results to clinical situations.
