“…[5][6][7][8][9][10][11][12][13][14] Different surface treatments showed success in improving the bond of Y-TZP to resin cements, with tribochemical silica coating showing better results when compared to other surface treatments such as air abrasion and acid etching. 7,[15][16][17][18] Several researches showed that the use of an MDP primer would have a positive impact on the initial shear bond strength (SBS) of the bonded zirconia samples. 7,11,14,16,17,[19][20][21][22][23][24][25] Although a high initial shear bond strength was achieved using a combination of surface treatments, priming agents and cements was successfully achieved 7,8,[14][15][16]26,27 , deterioration of the bond and significant decrease in the SBS was also noticed 7,8,14,23,25,28 Hence the need for testing different methods to maintain the original SBS or decrease the bond deterioration after aging was needed.…”
