Abstrakt:	Objective: Alumina and zirconia are inert to conventional etching and need to be initially conditioned with, for example, silicatization. The aim of the present study was to evaluate the effect of operating air pressure of tribochemical silica-coating method on the shear bond strength of composite resin to ceramic substrates. Material and Methods: Alumina (Procera Alumina, Nobel Biocare) and zirconia (LAVA; 3M ESPE and Procera Zirconia; Nobel Biocare) were airborne particle silica-coated (CoJet; 3M ESPE) using selected, clinically available air pressures of 150, 220, 300, and 450 kPa. The surfaces were silanized with silane coupling agent (ESPE Sil; 3M ESPE) and coated with adhesive resin (3M Multipurpose resin; 3M ESPE). Particulate filler resin composite (Z250; 3M ESPE) stubs (diameter 3.6 mm, height 4.0 mm) were added onto ceramics and light-cured for 40 s. The test specimens (n=18/group) were thermocycled (6000 x 5-55 degrees C) and shear bond strengths were measured with a cross-head speed of 1.0 mm/min. Fracture surfaces were examined with SEM, and an elemental analysis (EDS) was carried out to determine silica content on the substrate surface. Results: The highest bond strengths were obtained with the highest pressures. ANOVA showed significant differences in bond strength between the ceramics (p<0.05) and between the specimens treated at various air pressures (p<0.05). Conclusions: Clinically, the operating air pressure of silicatization may have a significant effect on bond strength to non-etchable ceramics.
