Objective: The aim of this study to evaluate and compere the effect of different surface treatments on the bond strength of four
CAD/CAM lithium silicate-based glass ceramic.
Material and Method: eighty specimens of lithium silicate-based glass ceramic (LSGC) (IPS e. max� CAD (Ivoclar-Vivadent,
Liechtenstein, Schaan), Vita Suprinity� (Vita Zahnfabrik, Bad S�ckingen, Germany), Celtra Duo� (Dentsply, Hanau-Wolfgang,
Germany) and nice ( Straumann, Basel Switzerland). All specimens were highly polished. All specimens assigned to following
groups (1) Control (C) no treatment. (2) Sandblasted (SB) with 50 ?m Al2O3 for 10s. (3) Hydrofluoric acid etched (HF) with
5% Hydrofluoric acid for 20s, and 30s according to manufacture recommendations. (4) SB + HF. Resin cement (Panavia V5,
Kuraray Noritake Dental, and Okayama, Japan) was applied and light cure for 5s. The specimens were submitted in distilled
water at 37 �C for 30 days and subjected to a micro-shear test. Atomic force microscopy used to evaluate the surface roughness.
Data were analyzed by 2-Way Anova and Tukey test (? = 5%).
Result: Sandblasted (SB) demonstrated a rougher surface on Celtra and Vita While. SB+HF showed significantly higher bond
strength for Celtra and Vita (p <.05). Both sandblasted and SB+HF produced higher surface roughness for e.max and nice.
However, etching and SB+HF demonstrated higher bond strength for both e.max and nice.
Conclusion: SB+HF increase the bond strength for both Vita and Celtra, however there is not significant different of bond
strength between etching and SB +HF for e.max and nice.
