Purpose To evaluate, through in vitro studies, the bond strength of vitreous and hybrid
ceramics with self‐etching surface treatment compared to conventional treatment. Methods …

Purpose: To evaluate the bond strength between alternative or conventional luting agents
and indirect restorative materials. Materials and Methods: Blocks of a polymer-infiltrated …

This study proposed to evaluate the influence of the crystallization firing process and the
hydrothermal degradation on the bond strength between different reinforced glass-ceramics …

Objective To assess the micro-shear bond strength of light-cured adhesive resin cement
compared to flowable composite to hybrid CAD/CAM ceramics. Materials and methods …

Purpose This study investigated the microshear bond strength between a resin cement and
a translucent zirconia subjected to multiple characterization firings. Methods and Materials …

This study verified the effect of surface treatments of the zirconia-reinforced lithium disilicate
ceramic bonded to resin cement. Ceramic blocks were divided according to treatments (n …

Statement of problem Polymer-based computer-aided design and computer-aided
manufacturing (CAD-CAM) materials have either a high content of ceramic filler particles or …

Stains and glaze are effective procedures for achieving an aesthetic smoothness on indirect
restorations. Thus, the effect of surface-etching treatments previous to the stain layer and the …

Due to the little information related to surface processing and conditioning of resin matrix
ceramic materials previous glazing, the main purpose of this in vitro study was to investigate …

Background: Polymer infiltrated ceramic networks, or hybrid ceramics, are a combination of
infiltrating polymerizable organic monomers into a pre-sintered porous ceramic matrix. In …
