Polish of interface areas between zirconia, silicate-ceramic, and composite with diamond-containing systems.
Journal of Advanced Prosthodontics 2018 August
PURPOSE: Fractures, occlusal adjustments, or marginal corrections after removing excess composite cements result in rough surfaces of all-ceramic FPDs. These have to be polished to prevent damage of the surrounding tissues. The aim of this study was to evaluate the roughness of zirconia, silicate-ceramic, and composite after polish with different systems for intraoral use.
MATERIALS AND METHODS: Each set of 50 plates was made of zirconia, silicate-ceramic, and composite. All plates were ground automatically and were divided into 15 groups according to the treatment. Groups Zgrit, Sgrit, and Cgrit received no further treatment. Groups Zlab and Slab received glaze-baking, and group Clab was polished with a polishing device. In the experimental groups Zv, Sv, Cv, Zk, Sk, Ck, Zb, Sb, and Cb, the specimens were polished with ceramic-polishing systems "v", "k", and "b" for intraoral use. Roughness was measured using profilometry. Statistical analysis was performed with ANOVA and Scheffé-procedure with the level of significance set at P =.05.
RESULTS: All systems reduced the roughness of zirconia, but the differences from the controls Zgrit and Zlab were not statistically significant ( P >.907). Roughness of silicate ceramic was reduced only in group Sv, but it did not differ significantly from both controls ( P >.580). Groups Cv, Ck, and Cb had a significantly rougher surface than that of group Clab ( P <.003).
CONCLUSION: Ceramic materials can be polished with the tested systems. Polishing of interface areas between ceramic and composite material should be performed with polishing systems for zirconia first, followed by systems for veneering materials and for composite materials.
