Avaliação clínica, histológica e histomorfométrica do reparo de defeitos ósseos criados em mandíbula de cães preenchidos com Biovidro 45S5 ou Biosilicato® após a colocação de implantes osseointegráveis / Bone formation on Ti implants in intra-bony defect sites filled with different bone substitutes: histomorphometric analysis in dogsRoberto de Oliveira Jabur 31 October 2008 (has links)
O presente trabalho avaliou a formacao de tecido osseo ao redor de implantes osseointegraveis de titanio, apos realizacao de defeitos osseos, utilizando diferentes tipos de substitutos osseos. Foram utilizados 5 caes de raca indeterminada, os pre molares e molares mandibulares foram extraidos, passados 12 semanas, os caes foram submetidos a um novo procedimento cirurgico aonde foram realizadas as perfurações preconizados pelo fabricante dos implantes, o osso vestibular da mandibula foi desgastado ate que parte da perfuracao fosse exposta, os implantes entao foram colocados nas respectivas perfuracoes, ficando com 4 espiras expostas. Esses defeitos foram preenchidos aleatoriamente com Bioglass® 45S5, Biosilicato® , Osso autogeno, e sem nenhum material de preenchimento. 18 semanas depois da colocacao dos implantes os caes foram mortos e suas hemi-mandibulas contendo os implantes removidas e submetidas aos analises histologiaos e histomorfometricas, os dados obtidos foram submetidos ao teste de Kruskal-Wallis. A histologia dos 4 grupos estudados revelaram a presenca de tecido osseo maduro em contato com os implantes, porem sem ralacao direta com os vidros bioativos e osso autogeno. A porcentagem de contato osso implante, matriz ossea mineralizada ao redor da espira, e area de espelho, nao mostraram diferencas estatisticas significantes entre os 4 materiais testados. Os resultados indicam que a presenca de substitutos osseos nao interfere com a formacao ossea ao redor dos implantes nesse modelo experimental. E existe resposta tecidual muito semelhante entre o osso autogeno, Bioglass® 45S5 e Biosilicato. / The aim of the present study was to investigate the amount of bone formation on Ti implants in sites with intra-bony defects filled with different bone substitutes. Mandibular premolars and first molars were extracted from 5 dogs, and after 12 weeks 3 implants were bilaterally placed in sites with intra-bony defects and each implantation site randomly received the following treatment: Biosilicate®, Bioglass® 45S5, aoutologous bone or no treatment. At 18 weeks after implantation, the hemi-mandibles containing the implants were removed and processed for morphological and histomorphometric analysis. Data were submitted to Kruskal-Wallis and Fishers test. The histological sections of the 4 experimental groups exhibited mature bone tissue in contact with implants, but not related with bioactive glasses or autologous bone used. The percentage of bone-implant contact, mineralized bone matrix between implant threads, and mineralized bone matrix within mirror area in the treated or non-treated sites were not statistically different among the 4 experimental groups. These results indicates that the presence of the bone substitutes evaluated here did not interfere with bone formation on Ti implants in sites with intra-bony defects. In addition, tissue response to Biosilicate® was similar to that of Bioglass® 45S5 and autologous bone.

Verres et vitrocéramiques du système BaO – TiO₂ – SiO₂ : élaboration, propriétés mécaniques et couplage mécanoélectrique / Glasses and glass-ceramics in the BaO – TiO₂ – SiO₂ system : synthesis, mechanical properties and mechano-electrical couplingMezeix, Pierre 15 February 2017 (has links)
Les verres du système BaO – TiO₂ – SiO₂ (BTS) présentent un intérêt majeur pour la synthèse de matériaux piézoélectriques par voie vitrocéramique. La fresnoite Ba₂TiSi₂O₈ possède en effet des propriétés piézoélectriques, ferroélectriques et d'optique non-linéaire. L'étude de la structure de verres BTS par spectroscopie Raman et EXAFS a permis d'expliquer l'évolution de leurs propriétés mécaniques à température ambiante et à Tg. Lorsque la teneur en TiO₂ est importante, ces verres présenteraient une séparation de phase menant à la formation de canaux de barium. Le verre 0,30BaO – 0,20TiO₂ – 0,50SiO₂ fut sélectionné comme matrice vitreuse pour la synthèse de vitrocéramiques texturées à base de fresnoite Ba₂TiSi₂O₈. L'étude de la cinétique de cristallisation a permis de contrôler précisément la cristallisation surfacique de cette phase piézoélectrique. L'utilisation d'un traitement par ultrasons précédent le traitement thermique a permis d'augmenter l'orientation de la croissance des cristaux surfaciques dans la direction de polarisation. Il fut ainsi possible de synthétiser des vitrocéramiques piézoélectriques texturées et transparentes présentant des propriétés mécaniques supérieures à celles de la matrice vitreuse. Les propriétés électriques de ces verres furent étudiées par spectroscopie d'impédance. Ceux-ci présentent à la fois une augmentation de leur conductivité et de leur constante diélectrique lors de l'augmentation de la teneur en TiO₂. Il fut suggéré que ces évolutions sont la conséquence de l'apparition des canaux de barium, facilitant la conduction ionique, et de groupements TiO₅, favorisant la polarisation. Finalement, l'effet d'un champ électrique sur la viscosité d'un verre fut investigué, et notamment le ramollissement du verre sous champ électrique intense. Il fut montré qu'il était possible de réduire grandement la viscosité du verre par application d'un champ AC ou DC. Si l'application d'un champ DC a des effets destructeurs sur le matériau, celui d'un champ AC est bien plus prometteur pour de potentielles applications dans la synthèse de matériau vitreux. / Glasses from the BaO – TiO₂ – SiO₂ (BTS) are of great interest for their use as glass-matrix to synthesise fresnoite glass-ceramics. These materials show numerous potential applications as piezoelectric and non-linear optic devices. It has been found that the addition of TiO2 in these glasses improves the cross-linking degree of the glass network as well as the volume density of energy and the glass temperature sensitivity. When the content of titanium is increasing, island-like Si\Ti rich units surrounded by barium-rich channels might form, leading to a similarity between the fresnoite crystal and the glass structure. Thanks to an ultrasonic and thermal heat-treatment it has been possible to control the growth of oriented fresnoite cristallites from the surface of 0,30BaO – 0,20TiO2 – 0,50SiO2 glass. The transparent glass-ceramic shows improved mechanical properties as well as evidence of piezoelectricity. The electrical properties of BTS glasses were investigated with the use of impedance spectroscopy. They show an increase in electric conductivity and dielectric constant as Ti is added to their composition. One explanation lies in the formation of these Ba-rich channels which may improve the ionic conduction. The formation of TiO5 groups would also be responsible for the overall increase in polarizability of the glass. Finally, the effect of an electric field on the glass viscosity was investigated. The glass showed great reduction of its viscosity under high electric field for both AC & DC. When AC field was applied, the material showed no deterioration which might be very interesting for the potential use of this effect for the synthesis of glassy materials.

Contribution à l'étude des propriétés thermoélectriques de vitrocéramiques et verres de chalcogénures semi-conducteurs / Contribution to the study of the thermoelectric properties of semiconducting chalcogenide glasses and glass-ceramicsVaney, Jean-Baptiste 18 September 2014 (has links)
Les matériaux thermoélectriques sont des matériaux capables de convertir l’énergie thermique en énergie électrique en exploitant l’effet Seebeck et vice-versa, en exploitant l’effet Peltier. Grâce à ces deux effets, il est possible de récupérer l’énergie perdue sous forme de chaleur dans la plupart des activités humaines (industrie, automobile,…) ou bien de produire du froid de manière efficace et silencieuse. Pour une efficacité optimale, il faut se tourner vers des matériaux qui possèdent simultanément une faible résistivité électrique, (rhô), une faible conductivité thermique (lambda) et un fort pouvoir thermoélectrique (ou coefficient Seebeck alpha). En d’autre termes, on peut monter que le facteur a optimiser est le facteur de mérite ZT = alpha2.T/rhô.lambda (une valeur de ZT de 1 est considérée comme élevée). Les verres de chalcogénures, grâce à leurs structures désordonnées, présentent naturellement un lambda bas mais sont trop résistifs (à l’opposé des matériaux thermoélectriques classiques dont on cherche à diminuer la conductivité thermique). Dans ce travail, deux stratégies ont été mises en places afin d’abaisser la résistivité électrique et d’augmenter ainsi les performances thermoélectriques des verres de chalcogénures. En nous focalisant sur les verres de tellurures, nous avons d’abord cherché à modifier leur composition et ajouter des éléments métalliques tels que Cu. La substitution de Te par Se dans le système Cu-As-Te a également permis d’augmenter la stabilité en température. Finalement pour des matériaux vitreux, un ZT maximum de l’ordre de 0,1 a été obtenu à 375K, pour le composé Cu30As10Te54Se6.La seconde solution consiste en une vitrocéramisation de ces verres : en profitant du mélange de matériau vitreux et de matériau cristallin, il est possible de tirer parti des propriétés de chacun (respectivement une conductivité thermique basse et un résistivité électrique basse) et d’augmenter le facteur ZT. En optimisant les vitrocéramiques de la composition Cu15As30Te55, nous avons pu obtenir un ZT proche de 0,2 à 375K. L’évolution des propriétés en fonction de la fraction cristalline et de la microstructure n’est toutefois pas facile à prédire, ce qui nous a également mené à la mise en place d’un modèle de transport dans les composites biphasés, donnant quelques indications sur les directions à suivre pour finalement améliorer ces matériaux davantage / Thermoelectrics are materials capable of converting thermal energy into electrical energy through Seebeck effect, and vice-versa through Peltier effect. By using these two phenomena, it becomes possible to salvage heat loss from most human activities (industries, cars,…) or on the other side, to efficiently and silently produce cold. To obtain an efficient material, it is necessary to look for materials that simultaneously possess a low electrical resistivity, a low thermal conductivity and a high thermoelectric power alpha (or Seebeck coefficient). In other words, it is possible to show that we need to optimize the figure of merit ZT = alpha2.T/rho.lambda (a ZT as high as 1 can be considered as efficient). Chalcogenide glasses, due to favorably disordered structures, exhibit a naturally low thermal conductivity, but have a too high electrical resistivity (oppositely to classical thermoelectrics of which we seek to lower the thermal conductivity). In this work, two strategies were set up into lowering electrical resistivity and then further enhance the thermoelectric performance of chalcogenide glasses. Focusing on telluride glasses, we firstly tried to modify their composition and add metallic elements such as copper. Substituting Te par Se in the ternary system Cu-As-Te allowed increasing their thermal stability. For vitreous materials, we finally obtained a maximal ZT around 0.1 at 375K, for the compound Cu30As10Te54Se6. The second solution consists in partially crystallizing these glasses: by taking advantage of the favorable properties of each phase (the low thermal conductivity of the glassy phase and the low electrical resistivity of the crystalline phase), the figure of merit can be raised. By optimizing glass-ceramics of composition Cu15As30Te55, a ZT close to 0.2 at 375K has been obtained. However, predicting how the thermoelectric properties evolve with crystalline fraction or microstructure is complex. That led us to set up a transport model for two-phases composites, giving finally some insights to further improve these materials.

Utilização de areia descartada de fundição e resíduos inorgânicos de indústria de papel e celulose – grits e lama de cal – na produção de materiais vitrocerâmicos /Silva, Leila Maria Sotocorno e January 2019 (has links)
Orientador: Sílvio Rainho Teixeira / Resumo: A falta de sincronismo entre o desenvolvimento industrial e a conscientização ambiental trouxe inúmeros impactos adversos ao meio ambiente. A quantidade de resíduos industriais gerados diariamente aumenta, enquanto a adoção de sistemas de gerenciamento ainda falha em muitos aspectos. Assim, o objetivo principal deste trabalho é desenvolver materiais vitrocerâmicos através da mistura de Areia Descartada de Fundição (ADF) com resíduos sólidos oriundos da indústria de papel e celulose (grits e lama de cal), visando o desenvolvimento de novos produtos que sejam ecologicamente corretos. Os materiais vitrocerâmicos obtidos a partir da cristalização do vidro com os resíduos de ADF, grits e lama de cal foram preparados utilizando o método tradicional, de fusão do composto, para a produção dos vidros; e, posterior cristalização, para obtenção das vitrocerâmicas. De acordo com a composição química dos materiais precursores e das misturas, os vidros foram obtidos à temperatura de 1450 °C. O trabalho foi desenvolvido em duas etapas principais: caracterização dos materiais precursores e preparação e caracterização dos vidros e vitrocerâmicas. Os estudos de caracterizações foram feitos através das técnicas de análises granulométrica, morfológica, mineralógica, química, térmicas e tecnológicas. Foram obtidos 6 materiais vítreos distintos, intitulados de vidros I, II, III, IV, V e VI.

The amount of industrial waste generated daily increases, while the adoption of management systems still fails in many ways. Thus, the main objective of this work is to develop glass-ceramic materials by mixing Waste Foundry Sand (WFS) with solid residues from the cellulose and paper industry (grits and lime mud), aiming at the development of new products that are environmentally friendly. The glass were obtained using the traditional melting-quenching method. The produced glasses were controlled by the crystallization process to obtain the glass-ceramics materials. According to the chemical composition of the precursor materials and the chemical composition of the mixtures, the glasses were fused at 1450 °C. The work was developed in two main stages: characterization of the precursor materials and preparation and characterization of glasses and glass-ceramics. The characterization studies were made through the techniques of particle size, morphological, mineralogical, chemical, thermal and technological analysis. Six distinct vitreous materials were obtained, entitled glasses I, II, III, IV, V and VI. The glasses were characterized by the analysis of X-Ray Diffraction (XRD), X-Ray Fluorecence (XRF) and differential scanning calorimetry. After identifying the crystallization peaks of each glass, heat treatment was given (temperatures high... (Complete abstract click electronic access below) / Doutor

Sura dryckers påverkan på biaxial böjhållfasthet på litiumdisilkatbaserad glaskeram med olika ytor / Biaxial flexural strength on lithium disilicate based glass ceramic with different surface submerged in acidic beveragesBromé, Nathalie, Jonung, Lina January 2021 (has links)
Aim: The aim of this study is to investigate if biaxial flexural strength for pressed glass ceramic with glazed, polished and grinded surface is affected by the acidic beverages Coca Cola and red wine. Material and method: 63 specimens were manufactured in IPS e.max Press®, divided into 6 test groups and one control group (KG) with 9 specimens in each group, in the dimensions 12 mm in diameter and in thickness, 1,8 mm without notch and 2,2 mm with notch. The specimens subdivided by different surface treatments; glazed surface (CCG, RVG), polished surface (CCP, RVP) and ground surface (CCS, RVS). Three groups underwent thermocycling for 970 cycles in 8°C Coca Cola® and three groups red wine at room temperature. Results: The results show significant difference between the groups with α=0,001. Biaxial flexural strength test showed that the CCS group had the highest mean value (340 MPa) and CCP the lowest mean value (214 MPa). CCS showed significant differences to all groups except RVP and RVS. Furthermore the RVP group showed no significant difference to any other group and RVS only towards CCP. Conclusion: Within the limitations of this in vitro study the following conclusions can be made; Acidic beverages do not affect the flexural strength for pressed lithium disilicate based glass ceramics. The flexural strength is affected by surface treatment, where grinding with sandpaper results in higher flexural strength. / Syfte: Syftet med föreliggande studie är att undersöka om den biaxiala böjhållfastheten på litiumdisilikatbaserad glaskeram som framställts genom pressteknik med tre olika ytbehandlingar (glansbränd yta eller för att efterlikna ocklusal inslipning eller abraderat slitage) påverkas av de sura dryckerna Coca Cola® och rödvin.Material och metod: 63 provkroppar tillverkades av IPS e.max Press®. Provkropparna delades in i 6 testgrupper, och en kontrollgrupp (KG), á 9 i varje, med måtten 12 mm i diameter och tjocklek 1,8 mm utan notch och 2,2 mm med notch. Provkropparna delades in utifrån olika ytbehandlingar, glansbränd (CCG, RVG), polerad (CCP, RVP) och slipad med sandpapper (CCS, RVS). 3 grupper genomgick termocykling i 970 cykler i 8°C Coca Cola®, och 3 grupper i rödvin i rumstemperatur, varvat med destillerat vatten i 37°C. Därefter utfördes biaxialt böjhållfasthetstest och resultaten analyserades med One-way ANOVA, Tukey’s test, signifikansnivå α= 0,05.Resultat: Resultaten visar att det finns signifikant skillnad mellan grupperna α=0,001. Det biaxiala böjhållfasthetstestet påvisade att gruppen CCS hade högst medelvärde (340 MPa) och CCP hade lägst medelvärde (214 MPa). CCS visade signifikant skillnad jämfört med samtliga grupper, förutom RVP och RVS. Vidare uppvisade RVP ingen signifikant skillnad jämfört med någon av de övriga grupperna och RVS endast mot CCP.Slutsats: Inom denna in vitro-studies begränsningar kan följande slutsatser dras; Sura drycker påverkar inte böjhållfastheten på litiumdisilikatbaserad glaskeram som framställts genom pressteknik. Hållfastheten påverkas beroende på ytbehandling. Genom att slipa ytan med slippapper resulterade det i högre biaxial böjhållfasthet.

Distribution of Laser Induced Heating in Multi-Component Chalcogenide Glass and its Associated EffectsSisken, Laura 01 January 2014 (has links)
Chalcogenide glasses are well known to have good transparency into the infrared spectrum. These glasses though tend to have low thresholds as compared to oxide glasses for photo-induced changes and thermally-induced changes. Material modification such as photo-induced darkening, bleaching, refractive index change, densification or expansion, ablation of crystallization have been demonstrated, and are typically induced by a thermal furnace-based heat treatment, an optical source such as a laser, or a combination of photo-thermal interactions. Solely employing laser-based heating has an advantage over a furnace, since one has the potential to be able to spatially modify the materials properties with much greater precision by moving either the beam or the sample. The main properties of ChG glasses investigated in this study were the light-induced and thermally-induced modification of the glass through visible microscopy, white light interferometry, and Raman spectroscopy. Additionally computational models were developed in order to aid in determining what temperature rise should be occurring under the conditions used in experiments. It was seen that ablation, photo-expansion, crystallization, and melting could occur for some of the irradiation conditions that were used. The above bandgap energy simulations appeared to overestimate the maximum temperature that should have been reached in the sample, while the below bandgap energy simulations appeared to underestimate the maximum temperature that should have been reached in the sample. Ultimately, this work produces the ground work to be able to predict and control dose, and therefore heating, to induce localized crystallization and phase change.

Crystallization of Lithium Disilicate Glass Using Variable Frequency Microwave ProcessingMahmoud, Morsi Mohamed 04 May 2007 (has links)
The lithium disilicate (LS2) glass system provides the basis for a large number of useful glass-ceramic products. Microwave processing of materials such as glass-ceramics offers unique benefits over conventional processing techniques. Variable frequency microwave (VFM) processing is an advanced processing technique developed to overcome the hot spot and the arcing problems in microwave processing. In general, two main questions are addressed in this dissertation:
1. How does microwave energy couple with a ceramic material to create heat? and,
2. Is there a "microwave effect" and if so what are the possible explanations for the existence of that effect?
The results of the present study show that VFM processing was successfully used to crystallize LS2 glass at a frequency other than 2.45 GHz and without the aid of other forms of energy (hybrid heating). Crystallization of LS2 glass using VFM heating occurred in a significantly shorter time and at a lower temperature as compared to conventional heating.
Furthermore, the crystallization mechanism of LS2 glass in VFM heating was not exactly the same as in conventional heating. Although LS2 crystal phase (Orthorhombic Ccc2) was developed in the VFM crystallized samples as well as in the conventionally crystallized samples as x-ray diffraction (XRD) confirmed, the structural units of SiO4 tetrahedra (Q species) in the VFM crystallized samples were slightly different than the ones in conventionally crystallized samples as the Raman spectroscopy revealed.
Moreover, the observed reduction in the crystallization time and apparent temperature in addition to the different crystallization mechanism observed in the VFM process both provided experimental evidence to support the presence of the microwave effect in the LS2 crystallization process.
Also, the molecular orbital model was successfully used to predict the microwave absorption in LS2 glass and glass-ceramic. This model was consistent with experiments and indicated that microwave-material interactions were highly dependent on the structure of the material.
Finally, a correlation between the Fourier transform infrared reflectance spectroscopy (FTIRRS) peak intensities and the volume fraction of crystals in partially crystallized LS2 glass samples was established. / Ph. D.

Development of Lithium Disilicate Microstructure Graded Glass-CeramicLindsay, Marianne Rose 06 June 2012 (has links)
The goal of this research was to create a microstructure graded glass-ceramic and investigate the resulting properties as a function of crystallization processing. The desired glass-ceramic was a lithium disilicate material that has a crystallization gradient across the sample, leading to functionally graded properties as a result of the microstructure gradient. Samples were prepared by melting and pouring glass at 1400°C, annealing at 400°C for 48 hours, and nucleating at 480°C for 2 hours. To ensure that crystallization would not occur homogeneously throughout the sample, a temperature gradient was imposed during crystallization. Samples were crystallized on a self-constructed resistance wire furnace that was open to air. Several crystallization processing parameters were tested, including high temperature for a short time and low temperature for a long time. Samples were ground and polished to 0.25 microns before characterization methods were performed. Scanning electron microscopy (SEM) showed the microstructure transition across the sample cross section, with crystals present on the crystalline side and only nuclei present on the glassy side. Raman spectroscopy showed a transformation of the characteristic spectra across the sample cross section, with defined, high-intensity peaks on the crystalline side and broad, low-intensity peaks on the glassy side. Microhardness showed a slight transition in hardness values across the sample cross section, however the variability was too great to draw any conclusions. The characterization methods showed that the desired material was created and the resulting properties were a function of the crystallization processing parameters. / Master of Science

Propriedades e adesão de cimentos de ionômero de vidro modificados por resina e vitrocerâmicas bioativas / Properties and adhesion of glass ionomer cements modified by resin and bioactive glass-ceramicFagundes, Ticiane Cestari 17 February 2009 (has links)
As vitrocerâmicas bioativas são materiais sintéticos capazes de aderirem quimicamente aos minerais presentes na estrutura dentária. A união dos cimentos de ionômero de vidro modificados por resina (CIVMRs) à dentina pode ser influenciada por diferentes tipos de tratamentos prévios à restauração. Os objetivos deste estudo foram: avaliar a resistência à compressão, a rugosidade e a adesão à dentina de CIVMRs (Fuji II LC e Vitremer) após a incorporação de partículas de vitrocerâmicas bioativas (Biosilicato®); foi ainda, avaliar a resistência à degradação da adesão à dentina dos CIVMRs, utilizando-se EDTA como pré-tratamento dentinário. Para o teste de resistência à compressão foram confeccionados cilindros sendo que 2, 5 e 10 % em peso de partículas de vitrocerâmica bioativa foram incorporadas aos pós dos CIVMRs, armazenados em água destilada por 24h a 37°C até a realização dos testes. A rugosidade dos cimentos experimentais (2% de vitrocerâmica bioativa) e controles foi avaliada por microscopia de força atômica (MFA) após armazenamento a seco e em 100 % de umidade por 1 mês. Para os testes de microtração, as superfícies das cavidades foram tratadas seguindo-se as instruções dos fabricantes ou utilizando-se EDTA. Os espécimes foram restaurados com os CIVMRs experimentais (2% de vitrocerâmica) e controles. Após as restaurações, os espécimes foram armazenados em água por 24h e 7d. Para o teste de degradação, os CIVMRs foram armazenados por 24h, 3m e imersos em 10% de hipoclorito de sódio por 5h. Os dentes foram seccionados em palitos e submetidos ao teste de microtração. ANOVA e teste de múltiplas comparações foram realizados (p<0,05). O modo de fratura foi classificado em adesivo, misto e coesivo e alguns espécimes foram analisados em microscopia eletrônica de varredura (MEV). Apenas os cimentos com 2% de vitrocerâmica bioativa obtiveram resistência a compressão semelhante ao grupo controle. Para os grupos controles, Fuji II LC apresentou-se mais rugoso que o Vitremer e o seu armazenamento à seco aumentou sua rugosidade. A condição de armazenamento, seco ou úmido, não afetou a rugosidade dos CIVMRs experimentais. A vitrocerâmica bioativa aumentou significantemente a adesão à dentina dos CIVMRs após armazenamento por 24h, exceto para o Fuji II LC quando EDTA foi utilizado. A aplicação de EDTA aumentou significantemente os valores de resistência adesiva. No estudo de degradação da união, valores de resistência adesiva significantemente maiores foram obtidos nos grupos onde a dentina foi pré-tratada com EDTA. A resistência adesiva do Fuji II LC à dentina não foi afetada pelos métodos de degradação utilizados. Valores de resistência adesiva significantemente menores foram observados para os espécimes restaurados com Vitremer após os dois métodos de degradação, exceto quando a dentina foi prétratada com EDTA. As falhas do tipo mistas foram prevalentes. Em conclusão, 2% de partículas de vitrocerâmica bioativa podem ser incluídas nos CIVMRs sem afetar suas propriedades mecânicas. A rugosidade dos CIVMRs experimentais não foi afetada pelo meio de armazenamento. A inclusão de vitrocerâmicas bioativas aumentou a resistência adesiva somente após armazenamento de 24h. A utilização de EDTA como pré-tratamento dentinário aumentou a resistência adesiva para todas as condições e preveniu a degradação da interface adesiva do Vitremer. / Bioactive glass-ceramics are synthetic materials capable of chemically bonding to dental structures. Adhesion of resin-modified glass-ionomer cements (RMGICs) to dentin may be influenced by different types of dentin pre-treatments. The objective of this study was to analyze the compressive strength, roughness and adhesion to dentin of RMGICs (Fuji II LC and Vitremer) after the incorporation of bioactive glassceramic particles (Biosilicate). Additionally, the durability of the RMGICs adhesion was analyzed after the application of EDTA as a pre-treatment of dentin. Cylinders of RMGICs with incorporation of 2, 5 and 10 % in weight of bioactive glass-ceramic particles were made for compressive strength, and stored in water for 24h at 37°C. Roughness of control and experimental (2% bioactive glass-ceramic) RMGICs was analyzed by atomic force microscopic (MFA) after storage in dry and humidity conditions for 1 month. For the microtensile test, the surfaces of the cavities were treated following the manufacturers instructions or by applying EDTA. The cavities were restored with control and experimental (2% bioactive glass-ceramic) RMGICs. After restorations, the specimens were stored in water for 24h and 7 days. For the degradation test, the RMGICs were stored for 24h, 3 months or immersed in 10% NaOCl for 5h. Teeth were sectioned in beams and submitted to microtensile test. ANOVA and multiple-comparisons tests were used (p<0.05). Mode of failure was classified in adhesive, mixed and cohesive, some specimens were analyzed by scanning electronic microscopic. Only the RMGICs with 2% of bioactive glassceramic obtained compressive strength similar to the control RMGICs. The storage conditions, dry or humidity, did not affect the roughness of experimental RMGICs. Bioactive glass-ceramic significantly increased the adhesion to dentin of RMGICs after storage for 24h, except for Fuji II LC when EDTA was applied. The application of EDTA significantly increased the values of bond strength. For the degradation study, high values of bond strength were also observed in groups where the dentin was pre-treated with EDTA. The bond strength of Fuji II LC to dentin was not affected by the degradation methods. Vitremer specimens presented significantly lower bond strength values after degradation methods, except when EDTA was applied. Mixed failures were the most prevalent in all groups. In conclusion, 2% of bioactive glassceramic particles may be included in RMGICs without affecting their mechanical properties. Roughness of experimental RMGICs was not affected by storage conditions. The incorporation of bioactive glass-ceramic increased the bond strength after storage for 24h. The application of EDTA as a pre-treatment of dentin increased the bond strength for all conditions studied and prevented the degradation of adhesive interface of Vitremer.
