Abstract:Objective:To evaluate the effects of self-made all ceramic pin on the micro tensile bond strength of a rensin cement to dentin. Methods:Forty extracted molars were selected and randomly divided into four groups,group A,B and C were prepared with an internal pin channel,then the all ceramic pins,self-threading retentive pins and resin composite pins were inserted into dentin respectively,group D was prepared with no internal retentive features. All subjuects were filled with composite resin. For the microtensile nontrimming technique,10 beam-shaped specimens per group were obtained. Each specimen was loaded in tension until failure and the fracture mode present were observed under stero-microscope. All the results were analyzed statistically. Results:The micro tensile bond strength of group A and B was statistically higher than that of group C and D(P < 0.05),while there were no significant difference between group A and B,or between group C and D(P > 0.05). The breakage modes were observed mainly between the dentin and adhesive interface in group A,C and D,while the dentin cohesive fracture was appeared mainly in group B. Conclusion:IPS e.max Press ceramic pin can significantly enhance micro tensile bond strength of a rensin cement to dentin and is considered as the novel and useful dentin pin.
