Abstract

All-ceramic prostheses are widely used to fulfill the high esthetic demand. However, bonding failure between zirconia and porcelain is one of the all-ceramic prostheses failures. In order to improve clinical sucess of all-ceramic prostheses, laboratory or in-office surface conditioning techniques on zirconia have been studied.
