Influence of ceramic thickness and polymerization mode of a resin luting agent on early bond strength and durability with a lithium disilicate-based ceramic system

Abstract

Statement of problem. Attenuation of polymerization light energy by translucent all ceramic materials may result in insufficient polymerization of underlying resin luting agents and inadequate early bond strength and durability. There is little information regarding the selection of in appropriate polymerization mode for cementing translucent all-ceramic restorations.
