Abstract

Manufacturing of metal-free ceramic restorations become possible thanks to the emergence of reinforced ceramics and was consolidated with the development of adhesive materials and vitreous ceramic, allowing restorations adhesion to the dental structure. Lithium dissilicate-based ceramic offers features like, luting agent adhesion, resistance and optical effect, to be used without covering ceramics or thin restorations, maintaining their characteristics. The first ceramic systems were based on the development of infrastructure materials, replacing the metal, with increased reinforced crystalline phase which associated with the roofing porcelain can provide excellent aesthetics results without compromising the mechanical performance indispensable to restoration clinical longevity. Thus, we can perceive the importance of knowledge and planning of the steps to be followed in the process of ceramic restorations adhesion. The careful definition of protocols for the processes of moisture isolation, substrate preparation and restoration for the adhesion process are fundamental for clinical procedures to have reduced risk.
