Abstract: Objective To evaluate the bond performance of primers,universal adhesives and self-adhesive resin cements containing methacryloyloxydecyl dihydrogen phosphate (MDP) to zirconia.Methods Two hundred and ten yttria-stabilized tetragonal zirconia polycrystal (Y-TZP) plates were prepared and divided into seven groups according to each of six MDP-containing products and one MDP-free resin cement.Two primers,two universal adhesives and two self-adhesive resin cements were applied on the specimens after these specimens recived alumina air abrasion.The group of MDP-free resin cement was set as control.Each group contained 30 specimens.Y-TZP plates were bonded to resin composite to build resin bonding specimens,and half of these plates were stored in distilled water at 37 ℃ for 24 hours,the other half were stored for 12 months.Shear bond strength (SBS) test and fracture modes analysis were performed.Results The SBS values of all the experimental groups were above 9.51 Mpa,which increased 24-hour values compared to the (5.04±t0.50) Mpa of the control group.Group using one of the self-adhesive resin cement yielded the highest SBS,(11.06±0.84) Mpa.SBS of all groups decreased significantly compared to 24-hour SBS after aging (P < 0.05),however,the SBS values of MDP-containing products groups can still be maintained above 7.44 Mpa.Two self-adhesive cement groups and one of the universal adhesive group maintained higher SBS values,and the values were statistical different from those from the two primer groups (P < 0.05).Conclusions Different MDP-containing products have different effects on the bond durability of zirconia.
