Adhesion01:14

Adhesion

42.7K
Adhesion occurs when one type of molecule is attracted to a different molecule. Water exhibits adhesive properties in the presence of polar surfaces, such as glass or cellulose in plants. For instance, when water is poured into a glass, the positively charged hydrogen molecules of water are more attracted to the negatively charged oxygen molecules in the silica than to the oxygen in neighboring water molecules.
Capillary action is a result of water’s adhesive tendencies. When a narrow...

Adherens Junctions01:24

Adherens Junctions

5.5K
Strong contact points between adjacent cells anchor them to each other, forming tissues. Such anchoring junctions are of two types –  adherens junctions and desmosomes. Adherens junctions are abundant in tissues such as  epithelium and endothelium, forming a continuous zone of adhesion called the adhesion belt. In other tissues, such as  heart muscle, they appear as clusters, linking the cells to produce coordinated heart muscle contraction.

Surface Appendages of Archaea01:23

Surface Appendages of Archaea

369
Archaeal surface appendages are highly specialized structures essential for environmental adaptation, encompassing roles in adhesion, biofilm formation, and motility. Among these appendages, pili and archaella stand out for their distinct morphologies and functionalities, enabling archaea to thrive in diverse and often extreme environments.Pili: Adhesion and Biofilm FormationPili are filamentous structures assembled from pilin protein subunits, primarily contributing to adhesion and biofilm...

Anchoring Junctions01:03

Anchoring Junctions

4.4K
Anchoring junctions are multiprotein complexes that help cells connect to other cells and the extracellular matrix. Anchoring junctions are present on the lateral and basal surfaces of cells, providing strong and flexible connections. Focal adhesions are often formed due to cell interactions with the ECM substrata, which initiate signal transduction via kinase cascades and other mechanisms. Together, they provide stability and tissue integrity. There are three types of anchoring junctions:...

Cell Adhesion in Plants01:14

Cell Adhesion in Plants

3.0K
Plants have rigid cell walls that are made up of cell wall polysaccharides that mediate cell-cell adhesion. The primary cell walls of plants consist of two independent and interacting polysaccharide networks: a pectin matrix that embeds the second network comprising cellulose and hemicelluloses.
Pectins are complex heteropolymers mainly composed of negatively-charged α-D-glucopyranosyl uronic acid and some neutral glycosyl residues such as α-L-rhamnopyranose, α-L-arabinofuranose,...

Summary
This summary is machine-generated.

Bonding orthodontic attachments to ceramics remains challenging. While ceramic brackets offer better adhesion, no specific adhesive or light source definitively increases bond strength on all ceramic types, necessitating further research.

Area of Science:

  • Dental Materials Science
  • Orthodontic Adhesion Technology
  • Biomaterials Research

Background:

  • Ceramic materials offer excellent aesthetics and function but pose challenges for bonding due to potential surface damage and toxicity.
  • Current bonding protocols for orthodontic attachments to ceramics lack a universally accepted gold standard.
  • The effectiveness of various adhesives and photopolymerization devices on different ceramic types requires clarification.

Purpose of the Study:

  • To determine if a gold standard exists for bonding orthodontic attachments to ceramic surfaces.
  • To evaluate if specific adhesives or photopolymerization lamps enhance bond strength on particular ceramic types.
  • To review existing literature on bonding protocols for various ceramic materials used in orthodontics.

Main Methods:

  • A systematic literature review of articles published between 1990 and 2018 from PubMed, Medline, and Embase.
  • Included studies focused on bonding orthodontic attachments to ceramic surfaces, excluding non-ceramic materials, non-orthodontic applications, and laser usage.
  • Analyzed and compared data on metallic and ceramic brackets, newer ceramics (zirconia, lithium disilicate), and photopolymerization devices.

Main Results:

  • Some adhesives achieve minimal bond strength (6-8 MPa) on glazed ceramics.
  • Surface preparation methods like sandblasting or hydrofluoric acid (9.6% for 60s) yield similar results.
  • Ceramic brackets demonstrate superior adhesion to ceramic surfaces, recommending consistent bonding protocols.
  • No clear evidence indicates a specific photopolymerization device significantly increases shear bond strength.

Conclusions:

  • Ceramic brackets exhibit better adhesion to ceramic substrates, suggesting uniform bonding protocols.
  • Current research provides limited statistical data and small sample sizes, especially for newer ceramics like zirconia and lithium disilicate.
  • Further investigation is essential to establish optimal bonding strategies for advanced ceramic materials and to identify superior photopolymerization techniques.
