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 …

Aim: This study assessed the effect of pretreatment of hybrid and glass ceramics using a self-
etching primer on the shear bond strength (SBS) and surface topography, in comparison to …

PURPOSE: To evaluate the influence of different surface treatments of six novel CAD/CAM
materials on the bonding effectiveness of two luting composites. MATERIALS AND …

OBJECTIVES: This study evaluated the effect of three surface conditioning methods on the
microtensile bond strength of resin cement to a glass-infiltrated zirconia-reinforced alumina …

STATEMENT OF PROBLEM: Durable bonding to fixed prosthodontic restorations is
desirable; however, little information is available on the strength of the bond between …
