Article history: Objectives. The purpose of this study was to investigate the influence of saliva contamination
Received 6 September 2006 and cleaning methods on adhesive bonding to dental zirconia ceramic with a phosphate-
Accepted 5 April 2007 monomer-containing luting resin.
Methods. After saliva immersion, airborne-particle abraded ceramic specimens were cleaned
with water rinsing, with isopropanol, with phosphoric acid gel, or with additional airborne-
Keywords: particle abrasion. Airborne-particle abraded specimens without contamination were used
Zirconia ceramic bonding as the control group. Chemical analysis of the ceramic surfaces of all groups was done
Saliva contamination using X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy (XPS). The influence of contamination and cleaning
Cleaning methods on ceramic bond durability was examined by tensile bond strength (TBS) testing
after 3 days or 150 days water storage with 37,500 thermal cycles.
Results. After saliva contamination XPS revealed an organic coating which was not removed
completely with water rinsing, with isopropanol, or with phosphoric acid. Using TBS testing
a strong influence of contamination and cleaning methods on resin bond strength and its
durability was found.
Significance. Saliva contamination significantly affected resin bonds to zirconia ceramic and
its durability. Airborne-particle abrasion was the most effective cleaning method.
