Abstract

The aim of this study was to verify, by means of literature review, the results of treatment of different areas of interest to Dentistry with Argon gas, a cold atmospheric pressure plasma. This subject has recently been studied and applied in order to increase the wettability of the substrate conditioning as zirconia, a well known acid-resistant material; Pins and dentin fiberglass positively interfering in adhesion. Different studies were reviewed, and shall be concluded that conditioning with cold argon plasma altered the surface of substrates, increasing the surface area and thereby reducing the contact angle. This contributes to a greatter wettability of the substrate and increased adherence to surfaces tested.
