Abstract

This study aimed to compare zirconia and lithium disilicate bonding strength to resin veneer cement in-vitro. Furthermore, clinical post-bonding outcomes of zirconia and lithium disilicate laminate veneers were also compared. The clinical study included 26 patients who have tooth rehabilitation with laminate veneers at the School of Dentistry. The shear bond strength of zirconia to veneer cement was significantly higher than that of lithium disilicate (p < 0.001). There were no statistically significant difference in marginal and internal gaps between zirconia and lithium disilicate laminate veneers. The United States Public Health Standard prosthetic rating also showed no significant difference between the two groups two weeks post-bonding. The shear bond strength of zirconia to veneer cement is higher than lithium disilicate in the in-vitro condition. Clinical post-bonding outcomes of zirconia veneers were comparable with lithium disilicate laminate veneers. This was a limited study therefore we suggest further studies with larger samples size and longer follow-up periods should be conducted.
