Background. Reliable bonding between resin composite cements and high strength
ceramics is difficult to achieve because of their chemical inertness and lack of silica content …

Ceramics are very important in the science of dental biomaterials. Among all dental
ceramics, zirconia is in evidence as a dental biomaterial and it is the material of choice in …

Objectives Zirconia-based dental restorations and implants are gaining attention due to their
bioactivity, corrosion resistance and mechanical stability. Further, surface modification of …

In the last two decades, the increased demand for esthetics in dentistry has resulted in
significant improvements in metal-free restorations, from indirect resin composites to various …

Background The zirconia polycrystalline nature avoids forming a permanent bond with the
tooth structure. Thus, creating a solid bond between zirconia and tooth is challenging. The …

This systematic review aims to evaluate the different pretreatments of the zirconia surface
and resin cement in order to determine a valid operative protocol for adhesive cementation …

The central aim of adhesive dentistry is to improve the compatibility between current
adhesives and a range of substrates by employing diverse application techniques …

Objective: The aim of this study was to investigate the influence of the cementation strategy
on the fatigue resistance of zirconia crowns. The null hypothesis was that the cementation …

Objective The main aim of this study was to conduct an integrative review on the influence of
the zirconia veneer thickness on the degree of conversion of resin-matrix cements. Materials …

Yttria-stabilized polycrystalline zirconia ceramics have greatly advanced over the past few
years. High-translucent zirconia is a newly introduced ceramic that affords high strength and …
