Abstract
Remove glaze of the ceramic surface at the margins using fine-grit diamond bur under water cooling. Undisturbed glaze layer will not react with HF and subsequent application of silane coupling agents. Removal of glaze layer increases the surface area on ceramic for mechanical retention and allows the reaction of silane with the glassy matrix.7 The presence of glass phase in ceramics is known to be expedient for better siloxane bonds.1
