Abstract
The effect of light intensity on the Weibull moduli of the bond strength of resin cements to ceramic was examined. Cement rods of two dual-cured resin cements [Panavia F 2.0 (Kurarey, A), Bistite II (Tokuyama Dental, B)] were bonded to ceramic plates using a halogen light-curing unit at an intensity of 300 or 800mW/cm². Non-irradiated specimens served as controls. The shear bond strengths (n=12 each) of the cements were determined at 10 minutes and 24 hours after preparation and their Weibull moduli for bond strength data were calculated. The Weibull moduli for cement A noticeably increased at 800mW/cm². A trend was seen in cement B whereby Weibull moduli decreased as time elapsed. Depending upon the products, light irradiation appeared to reduce dispersion of the bond strength data at the initial stage of ceramic bonding.
