Background : Porcelain crown restorations are often found in patients. Problems that may occur when bonding the bracket on

the restoration is dislodged bracket and there is damage to the porcelain. The use of silane coupling agent has been reported to

increase the bond strength and maintain the integrity of the porcelain. Purpose: This study aimed to see differences of shear bond

strength using three materials of silane coupling agent with different organosilane composition. Method: This study uses 21

porcelain plates that are divided into three groups, they are silane coupling agent Monobond-Plus (Ivoclar Vivadent), Ultradent

Silane (Ultradent product) and Porcelain Repair Primer (Ormco). The surfaces of 21 porcelain plates are given a 37% phosphoric

acid etching, silane coupling agent material and Transbond XT adhesive (3M Unitek). Once the bracket is bonded on the surface

of the porcelain plate then soaking/immersed in distilled water for 24 hours and the shear bond strength was tested with test

equipment Universal Testing Machine Shimazu AG-5000. Result: The results showed statistically significant differences in shear

bond strength from three silane coupling agent material. Material A has the highest shear bond strength (12.827 ± 1.228 MPa)

and B has the lowest shear bond strength (6.295 ± 0.642 MPa). Those three ingredients meet the minimum criteria of shear bond

strength,which is 6-8 MPa. ARI scores on material B showed a clean porcelain surface, while the materials A and C show the

presence of bonding adhesive on the entire surface of the porcelain. Conclusion: Materials A and C are used if the porcelain will

be replaced, while materials B is used if the porcelain will not be replaced.

  studies explained that, the bracket bonding on the surface of porcelain restorations resulting in damage to the restoration and cannot be avoided.

  Handling porcelain restorations associated with orthodontic treatment is generally associated with the process of bonding and de-bonding bracket. The bonding process is an essential step in order to produce good orthodontic treatment.

  3,5,7

  Therefore, dentist or dental specialist must be careful in handling porcelain restoration.

MATERIAL AND METHODS

  coupling agent are available on the market with a wide range of brand name and its composition. Ivoclar Vivadent manufactures silane coupling agent materials under the trade name Monobond-Plus and has organosilane composition of < 2.5%. Ultradent Product manufactures silane coupling agent materials under the trade name Ultradent Silane and it has composition of organosilane at a range of 5-15%. Ormco manufactures silane coupling agent materials under the trade name Porcelain Repair Primer and it has composition of organosilane at a range of 15–20%.

  in bonding with silane coupling agent is influenced by several factors, one of which is the concentration of organosilane. Therefore, it is important for the orthodontist to determine the composition of the silane coupling agent material in order to produce an enough bond strength (6-8 MPa) between the metal bracket and porcelain restoration.

  The mechanism of chemical bonding is done with the use of a silane coupling agent material.

  This process can cause cracks and fractures in the porcelain restoration. The mechanism of chemical bonding has been reported would help to maintain the integrity of the porcelain surface so that the restoration can still be used well after orthodontic treatment is completed.

  This type of research is a laboratory experimental research.

  Transbond XT 3M, 37% phosphoric acid etching with Ultraetch brand-Ultradent Product, distilled water (aquadest), and red wax.

  The 21 porcelain specimens were divided into 3 groups: the porcelain surface applied with silane coupling agent Monobond-Plus (A) material, the porcelain surface applied with Ultradent Silane silane coupling agent (B) material, the porcelain surface applied with silane coupling agent Porcelain Repair Primer (C) material. The 21 incisor bracket of right central maxillary (Densply, GAC) is divided evenly into 3 groups (each group totalled 7). The surface of 21 porcelain cylindrical specimens (diameter 8 mm and height 3 mm) coated with red wax and then implanted into the PVC cylinder (diameter 18.8 mm and height 10 mm) with decorative resin as the mediator. The surface 21 specimens were cleaned with pumice powder with a low-speed brush, rinse with water and dried off. Then, the 21 specimens were put into ultrasonic cleaner to be cleaned and then dried off. Then, on to the 21 specimens, applied the etching using 37% phosphoric acid for 60 seconds, rinse with water and then dried off, group A (7 specimens) has been given the silane coupling agent A material for 60 seconds and dried off with air spray, group B (7 specimens) has been given silanes coupling agent B material for 60 seconds and dried off with air spray, group C (7 specimens) has been given silane coupling agent C material for 60 seconds and dried off with air spray, then apply bonding material on the bracket mesh. Excess of bonding material are disposed and then irradiate with light-cured for 20 seconds each from the mesial, distal, occlusal and cervical, then the specimens were stored in distilled water (aquadest) at a temperature of 37 °C for 24 hours, ²³ shear bond strength measurements performed on the second day of the test using Universal testing Machine Shimazu AG-5000 with a speed of 0.5 mm/min and a maximum load of 50 kg. Force value obtained will be noted. Research data will be processed and tested statistically with SPSS 17 computer program. Univariate analysis was performed to obtain an average value, median, maximum, minimum, and standard deviation of each group. Bivariate analysis is to analyze differences in shear bond strength for the three types of materials silane coupling agent using one-way Anova and Post Hoc.

  RESULTS

  The study was conducted in the Laboratory of Dental Materials Faculty of Dentistry, University of Indonesia. Shear bond strength measurements were performed on each specimen with a load of research used by 50 kgf and a cross head speed in this study of 0.5 mm/min.

  The results of the test for normality and variance of data showed that in group A, B and C have a normal distribution of data and there is no difference in the variance of the data. After the measurement is completed, the average was obtained from shear bond strength and metal bracket standard deviation on the surface of the porcelain using three materials of silane coupling agent A, B and C (Table 2). These results indicate that a large group of A has high shear bond strength while group B has low shear bond

  In group A, a silane coupling agent used is Monobond plus that content < 2.5% organosilane

  Silane coupling agent application in the bonding process allows achieving sufficient bonding strength and to maintain the integrity of the porcelain. To improve the bonding strength, the rules of a silane coupling agent to use the product in the market usually involve the application of acid etching before application of silanes. There are several factors that indirectly affect the strength of the bonding which is silane concentration, solvent, and temperature.

  The principle of the bracket bonding to the tooth surface is through the presence of microporosity in tooth enamel, which is obtained by the application of phosphoric acid etching. The problem is if the surface of the tooth is restored to get its integrity, then the formation of microporosity for bonding process becomes difficult. This is common on the ceramic restoration. In the anterior teeth that require high aesthetic, feldspathic ceramic or porcelain is usually used. Porcelain crown is a restoration which more expensive than other types of restorations. Therefore, in the process of bonding bracket on porcelain restorations, there are two things that should be concern to the orthodontist, which is to get enough bond strength and maintain the integrity of the porcelain after orthodontic treatment.

  DISCUSSION

  These results indicate that in group A and C residual adhesive is almost entirely stuck to the porcelain surface, while in group B there is only a fraction/no residual adhesive on the surface of the porcelain.

  Besides shear bond strength measurement, to complete this study, the residual adhesive on the bracket and porcelain surfaces was observed visually using a stereomicroscope. The result of these observations was assessed using the calculation of Adhesive Remnant Index (ARI).

  One way Anova result shows a p-value < 0.001 (p < 0.05). The hypothesis that stated that there are differences in the metal brackets shear bond strength to porcelain surfaces on the use of silane coupling agent A, B and C was accepted. Then from the data above, Post-Hoc statistical tests was performed. Post-hoc tests showed that there were significant differences between the application of a silane coupling agent A material with silane coupling agent B (p < 0.001), there were significant differences between the application of a silane coupling agent A material with silane coupling agent (Cp = 0.005) and there were a significant difference between the application of a silane coupling agent B with a silane coupling agent C (p < 0.001) (Table 4).

  To know the significant difference of metal bracket shear bond strength to the porcelain surface to the three groups, the data were tested using the bivariate analysis of oneway Anova (Table 3).

  composition (MPS), 50–100% ethanol and < 2.5% phosphoric acid ester methacrylated. Group B, a silane coupling agent used is Ultradent Silane that content 5–15% organosilane content (MPS), 92% isopropyl alcohol, < 1% acetic acid. Group C, a silane coupling agent used is Primary repair Porcelain that content 15–20% organosilane, 80–85% ethyl alcohol.

  Group A which have the lowest organosilane (< 2.5%), has the highest shear bond strenght compared with groups B and C that content much more organosilane. This probably occurs because of the presence of phosphoric acid ester methacrylated of <2.5% in the preparation of a silane coupling agent. Methacrylated phosphoric acid ester is the active ingredient in self-etching solution primer. Phosphoric acid and methacrylate groups combined into a molecule that can simultaneously function as etching and primer. Therefore methacrylated phosphoric acid ester possible binding to the adhesive resin and porcelain materials, so that increase the covalent bond between the materials and also increase shear bond strength between the metal bracket with porcelain surface.

  Group B which have 5-15% organosilane (MPS), has the lowest shear bond strength compared with groups A and C. Silane coupling agent B has an additional composition which is acetic acid. Acetic acid is used to accelerate the process of silanol condensation into oligomers, so that oligomers can be maximum formed automatically. These conditions may increase the covalent bond between the OH group of oligomers with inorganic substances (porcelain). This condition result the increase of shear bond strenght between metal brackets and porcelain surfaces. However, when compared with group A, which has higher shear bond strength but less organosilane content, the addition of phosphoric acid esters methacrylated may be more effective than the addition of acetic acid. Meanwhile, when compared with group C, which has higher shear bond strength organosilane and more content of organosilane, the addition of acetic acid may be less effective for generating maximum shear bond strength.

  Group C which have the highest organosilane (15–20%) has higher shear bond strength than group B and lower than group A. In group C there is no additional material other than the organosilane and the main solvent. When compared with group A, which has higher shear bond strength and lower organosilane, then the addition of phosphoric acid ester methacrylated effective to improve shear bond strength equivalent to group C that content 15–20% organosilane.

  In this study, in addition to the measurement of shear bond strength, observations of adhesive remnant index that bond to the surface of the porcelain and bracket base were also carried out.

  The lower the ARI score, the lower the power of bonding, but the bracket de-bonding and cleaning of the tooth surface/other substrate will be easier, and porcelain fracture may be lower.

  24 ARI scores

  in B shows a clean porcelain surface, while the A and C show the adhesive glue on the entire surface of porcelain.

  Shear bond strength average of the three study groups meets the minimum criteria of shear bond strength according to Whitlock and Reynolds which is 6–8 MPa. Therefore, seen from the integrity of the porcelain surface, group B showed the best results because the shear bond strength hold enough to receive an orthodontic force and on the porcelain surface there is no/few remaining adhesive, so the possibility of porcelain fracture is small. Silane coupling agent A and C materials can be used only if the porcelain will be replaced, while the Silane coupling agent B can be used if the porcelain will not be replaced.
