ABSTRACTObjective: Thepurpose of this study was to assess and contrast the shear bond strength of aveneer composite resin bonded to cobalt-chromium (CoCr) dental alloys producedby different techniques.Material-Method:Ninety cylindrical specimens (10mm indiameter, 8mm in height) made of CoCr dental alloys were prepared by casting(C), milling (M), LaserCUSING with and without annealing (CL+, CL), and directmetal laser sintering (DMLS) with and without annealing (EL+, EL). Veneercomposite cylinders (5mm in diameter, 3mm in height) were built on metalspecimens using a silicone jig. After storage in water for 24 hours, thespecimens were assessed for bond strength with a shear force test at acrosshead speed of 0.5 mm/min. The shear bond strengths (SBSs) werestatistically analyzed using the Kolmogorow-Smirnow test and Tukey-HSD multiplecomparison test (α=.05).Results: Whenthe SBS values of the groups were compared, significant differences were foundamong the groups (P<.05). While statistically significant differences werefound between the CL+ group (9.36∓2.62)and the M group (13.34∓2.53)(P<.05), there were no significant differences among the others (P>.05).The debonded surfaces of the specimens exhibited mostly mixed failure types.Conclusions: TheCoCr alloy fabrication technique has an effect on the SBSs between the veneercomposite resin and the metal used. LaserCUSING casting, a new technology,seems to have the lowest metal-resin bond strength among all the techniquestested.
