Purpose To investigate the effects of nanozirconia fillers conditioned with 10-methacryloyloxydecyl dihydrogen phosphate (MDP) with or without zirconium hydroxide precoating on bending strength, Vickers hardness, and translucence of dental resin composites.Methods We obtained nanozirconia fillers coated with different concentrations of Zr(OH)4 using wet-chemical synthesis. We analyzed coating quality by observing electron-diffraction patterns using transmission electron microscopy. We conditioned zirconia fillers, with or without prior Zr(OH)4-coating, using MDP-containing primers and evaluated the formation of chemical bonds using nuclear magnetic resonance (NMR) and X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy (XPS). We then performed three-point bending-strength tests, Weibull analysis, Vickers hardness, and translucence-parameter analysis with or without addition of different concentrations of zirconia using untreated zirconia fillers as controls.Results We achieved desirable Zr(OH)4 coating using 5 mmol/L zirconium chloride. NMR and XPS analysis detected stronger Zr–O–P peaks on MDP-conditioned zirconia fillers with prior Zr(OH)4-coating compared with MDP-conditioned fillers alone, suggesting that MDP bonding with zirconia was enhanced by zirconium hydroxide. Our three-point bending-strength tests revealed that increasing levels of untreated zirconia fillers decreased the three-point bending strength of the resin composites, while MDP-conditioned zirconia fillers with or without prior Zr(OH)4 coating improved three-point bending strengths. Adding 5 wt% and 7.5 wt% MDP-conditioned zirconia fillers with prior Zr(OH)4 coating achieved the highest three-point bending strength. Furthermore, addition of zirconia fillers decreased the translucence of silica-based resin composites.Conclusion MDP conditioning with prior Zr(OH)4 coating is recommended for treating nanozirconia fillers of resin composites.
