Effect of surface treatment with laser on repair bond strength of composite resin to ceramic

Conclusion: The repair SBS was higher in groups treated with HF acid compared to laser. Ceramicsurface treatment with HF plus silane plus conventional adhesive yielded a higher SBS as well asHF plus Universal adhesive. Thus, the application of silane as a separate step can be omitted in therepair of ceramic restorations with universal adhesives.Key Words: Bond strength, ceramic, laser, resin composite
