Single Retainer All-Ceramic Resin-bonded Fixed Dental Protheses

September 4, 2014 updated by: Martin Sasse, University of Kiel

Randomized Clinical Trial on Single Retainer All-Ceramic Resin-bonded Fixed Dental Protheses: Impact of the Bonding System

The purpose of this prospective study was to evaluate the clinical outcome of all-ceramic RBFDP with a cantilevered single-retainer design made from zirconia ceramic. To evaluate the impact of the adhesive system used an established resin cement with an integrated adhesive monomer (Panavia 21 TC) and a resin cement with a separate primer (Multilink Automix with Metal/Zirconia Primer) were compared within the study on a randomized basis.

The aim of the present randomized study was to evaluate wether the difference in bond strength of Panavia and Multilink Automix with Metal/Zirconia Primer to densely sintered zirconia ceramic (IPS e.max ZirCAD, Ivoclar Vivadent) has any impact on the clinical outcome of all-ceramic RBFDP with a cantilevered single-retainer design.

Arms and Interventions

Participant Group / Arm
Intervention / Treatment
Active Comparator: Multilink
RBFDPs were inserted using an adhesive bonding system with a phosphonic acid acrylate primer for the zirconia ceramic (Multilink-Automix bonding system [A/B primer and Multilink-Automix] with Metal/Zirconia primer)
After air-abrasion of the retainer wings (50 µm alumina particles at 0.25 MPa) and etching the enamel with 36% phosphoric acid for 30 sec, the RBFDPs were inserted using an adhesive bonding system with a phosphonic acid acrylate primer for the zirconia ceramic (Multilink-Automix bonding system with Metal/Zirconia primer)
Other Names:
  • Multilink-Automix, Ivoclar Vivadent
  • Metal/Zirconia-Primer, Ivoclar Vivadent
  • A/B-Primer, Ivoclar Vivadent
Active Comparator: Panavia 21 TC
RBFDPs were inserted using a phosphate monomer containing resin (Panavia 21 TC) without any primer
After air-abrasion of the retainer wings (50 µm alumina particles at 0.25 MPa) and etching the enamel with 36% phosphoric acid for 30 sec, the RBFDPs were inserted using a phosphate monomer containing resin (Panavia 21 TC) without any primer
