Fatigue failure load of an adhesively-cemented lithium disilicate glass-ceramic: Conventional ceramic etching vs etch & prime one-step primer
The long-term success of indirect ceramic restorations in Restorative Dentistry substantially depends on achieving an adequate adhesion to the substrates (remaining tooth structure and restorative materials) [1]. An enhancement of the stress distribution (occlusal forces transmissions) is consequently provided through the restorative assembly, increasing its ability to support the challenges involved in the oral environment [2].
