(Fleck's Mizzy Inc, Cherry Hill, Nj]; I2) glassionomer cement (Fuji Glass lonomer 1 Luting Cement, Scottsdale, AZ); or (3] visible light-activated
resin cement IDicor, Dentsplyl. The rounded internal finish line was selected to facilitate fabrication
of the specimens.
To determine if resin cement could counteract
the negative effect of certain finish line characteristics, 15 additional restorations were luted using
resin cement on teeth prepared with each of the
other finishing lines shown in Fig 1. Dicor visible
light-activated resin cement was used in conjunction with the enamel, dentin, and restoration precementation treatments listed in Table 1. The cemented crowns were placed in a humidor at 37C
for 7 days and then subjected to 2,500 thermal
cycles between 7C and 47C with adwell timeof 30
seconds at each temperature. The crowns were
then stored for 1 week at 3 7 ^ and 100% humidity
and then tested to fracture.

Discussion
Results
Restorations luted using fbe visible l i g h t activated resin cement and associated bonding procedures were significantly stronger than fhose
luted using glass-ionomer or zinc phosphate cements (Table 2). Similar restoration strengths were
recorded for botb glass-ionomer and zinc pbosphate materials (Table 2). No differences in strength
were found between tbe five finish line designs
when the light-activated resin cement and bonding
procedures were used (Table 3).

Conclusion
Dicor glass ceramic crowns were luted to human
molar teeth that had been machined to standardized cylindric preparations. Three different luting
agents and five finishing lines were evaluated.
Within the design of this study and under the conditions used, Dicor crowns luted using resin cement and associated bonding procedures were significantly stronger than those luted using
glass-ionomcr or zinc phosphate materials. Also,
variations in the finishing line form did not produce
significant differences in restoration strength when
a resin cement and associated bonding procedures
were used.
