A recent study by Accenture and Oxford Economics
projected a US $1.4 trillion growth in the world
economy over the next 5 years spurred by
digi-tal technology In dentistry, the interest in digidigi-tal
technol-ogy has increased exponentially in the last few years The
heavy marketing of and interest and investment in novel
digital scanners, sensors, treatment-planning software,
and, of course, CAD/CAM technologies, created a digital
disruption in dentistry “Going digital” became synonymous
with growth and prosperity But if digital dental technology
is considered as just another IT instrument, the outcome
could be disastrous and the longevity of any program
jeop-ardized in a short period of time Organizations (schools,
clinics, corporations, private practices, and laboratories)
must be ready to embrace this technology, thus fully
ac-cepting the digital disruption and transforming operations
to soundly compete in a digital dental world
Needless to say, any new technology comes with a
price tag In dentistry this price tag can become very steep
Investments in hiring of personnel (dentists, faculty, dental
technicians, and/or staff) as well as their training,
coach-ing, and development are essential And after all that, a
program for career development must be pondered to
en-sure retention of highly committed and talented individuals
Of course, technology is perishable; it can become solete in a short period of time (Ask yourself how many times you have changed your smartphone in the last few years and have looked forward to the introduction of the next new model.) Thus, a strategy for budget allocation must be clearly established for investment, maintenance, upgrades, and improvements—all of which are highly im-portant and necessary even before adopting digital tech-nology Our experience with digital disruption has revealed
ob-it to be exceedingly posob-itive and excob-iting, since when fully planned and executed, digital technology can produce meaningful rewards in all aforementioned aspects
care-In this issue of Quintessence of Dental Technology, join
me in discovering how digital disruption, when combined with art and science, can improve predictability, increase opportunities, and expand the breadth of esthetic oral re-habilitation to heights never before imagined

Dentists and dental laboratory technicians must
have both technical and scientific knowledge
to deliver high-quality, ultrathin bonded ceramic restorations.1,2 All esthetic treatments must be properly
indicated to provide long-lasting restorations that not just
create a beautiful smile, but also restore and maintain the
oral health and function over time
It is universally accepted that ceramic veneers
bond-ed to intraenamel tooth preparations have higher survival
rates.3 The mean thickness of enamel at the gingival third
is 410 μm (0.410 mm) on the maxillary central incisor and
367 μm (0.367 mm) on the maxillary lateral incisor (Fig
1).4 Since traditional veneers have a chamfer gingival finish
line with 0.5 mm of depth,5 dentin is exposed during the
tooth preparation In other words, the enamel thickness at
the gingival third does not permit a chamfer preparation of
0.5 mm depth.4
The long-term success and durability of ultrathin
bond-ed ceramic restorations have been achievbond-ed due to the
improvement of both ceramics and bonding systems.6
Nowadays, ultrathin bonded ceramic restorations, with
100 μm (0.1 mm) to 300 μm (0.3 mm) of thickness, can
be fabricated to partially involve one or more tooth
sur-faces (ultrathin partial veneer) (Fig 2)7–9 or completely cover
the tooth facial surface (ultrathin veneer) (Fig 3).1,2,10,11 The main advantage of ultrathin ceramic restorations is tooth preservation, since minimal or no preparation is necessary.Subgingival tooth preparation may cause gingival in-flammation over time due to injuries from the operative procedures, presence of restorative materials, marginal gaps, overhangs, and roughness of the luting agents (Fig 4).12 However, if the veneer preparation is equigingival, the natural apical migration of gingiva may expose the adhe-sive luting interface and dark tooth substrates over time (Fig 5) In a 12-year longitudinal study evaluating the gin-gival recession on subjects with good oral hygiene, the recession increased from 44% to 88% in the group of 18- to 29-year-olds, mainly at incisors and canines.13Moreover, wear of the adhesive luting interface of tra-ditional veneers over time also raises both esthetic and biologic concerns (Fig 6).14 These depressions on the in-terface act as a niche for plaque,15 which could expedite the development of secondary caries as well as gingival inflammation by retaining periodontal pathogens.16
The aim of part 1 of this article is to give the clinician step-by-step guidelines for properly selecting, planning, executing, and delivering ultrathin bonded ceramic resto-rations

CASE SELECTION
Ultrathin bonded ceramic veneers and partial veneers
are indicated to change dental morphology, such as for
increasing the length and facial bulkiness of teeth,
clos-ing diastemas, re-anatomization of conoid teeth, restorclos-ing
teeth fractures and canine guidance, as well as for
restor-ing or increasrestor-ing the vertical dimension (Fig 7) However,
these ultrathin bonded ceramic restorations are dicated when dentin is exposed during an aggressive tooth preparation to correct tooth morphology and/or position
contrain-or to create an adequate path of insertion (Fig 8), as well
as in cases of severe tooth discoloration Figures 9 to 52 depict various cases and the restorative approach aimed at maximum preservation of human dental enamel

TREATMENT PLANNING
The success of ultrathin bonded restorations depends on
an adequate treatment plan It should be done using an
appropriate dental photographic protocol as well as
diag-nostic casts and diagdiag-nostic wax-ups
Dental photographs of the patient’s face as well as
fron-tal, 45-degree, profile, and occlusal views should be taken
These are important for evaluating the dental arrangement,
smile line, gingiva position, occlusal planes, teeth color and
shape, as well as emergence profile of the teeth Moreover,
digital treatment planning can be done to facilitate
inter-disciplinary communication as well as to communicate with
the dental technician and with the patient.17
The first impression should be taken with polyvinyl
si-loxane (PVS) impression material and poured using type
IV dental stone to have the least amount of dimensional
distortion.18 Other advantages of PVS impressions are that
they can be poured multiple times within a week after the
impressions were taken Furthermore, in clinical cases that
do not require teeth impressions, the first impressions can
also be used to pour the working cast
The diagnostic wax-up should be done by the same
dental technician who will fabricate final ceramic
restora-tions, preferably without any dental reduction on the
diag-nostic cast The wax-up should be done using a wax with a
different color than the diagnostic cast to facilitate
visual-ization of the areas that will be covered by ceramic
restora-tions or reduced to achieve an adequate path of insertion
for the restorations.1 If any dental reductions are
neces-sary to achieve the correct tooth shape and position, a
reduction guide should be fabricated by the dental
techni-cian to guide the dentist to reduce the same amount of
tooth structure in the patient’s mouth before the mock-up
fabrication
SHADE MATCHING AND
MOCK-UP
The correct shade matching is key to creating
natural-looking restorations Shade matching must be done
visu-ally and also using dental photographs with the teeth
hy-drated, before the mock-up
For a correct shade matching of value, chroma, and
hue, dental photographs should be taken with different
tabs similar to the tooth shade The shade tabs should be placed at the same level on the teeth in all photographs, and the color names should be included in the frame A close-up picture with a black background can also be taken to evaluate details such as mamelons, translucence, opalescence, incisal halo, regions with higher and lower value, and presence of staining.19
Before starting any tooth preparation, it is necessary to transfer the information (representing the planned treat-ment) from the diagnostic cast to the patient’s mouth A PVS impression of the waxed diagnostic cast should be taken It should include all waxed teeth and extend at least one non-waxed tooth on each side as well as the palatal surfaces of waxed teeth After the impression materials are polymerized, the excesses are trimmed off from the gingival area (2 mm apical to the dentogingival junction) The impression should be filled with a chemical-cure bis-acryl resin with the shade selected for the final restora-tions and placed in the patient’s mouth Excesses should
be removed after resin polymerization
The mock-up allows the dentist and patient to ate whether any adjustments are necessary to achieve adequate esthetics and function In addition, it allows the patient to approve the shape and position of the proposed restorations If any intraoral correction is made, an impres-sion of the mock-up must be taken after the adjustments
evalu-to transfer those changes evalu-to the technician
ENAMEL RECONTOURING
The majority of cases restored with bonded porcelain neers do not require tooth preparation, but rather enamel recontouring Any enamel recontouring necessary should
ve-be performed only after the patient gives written consent and approves the proposed mock-up Enamel recontouring should be as least invasive as possible, because enamel preservation is the key for long-term success of any bond-
ed ceramic restorations If dentin is exposed during tooth preparation, the bonded interface becomes more suscep-tible to long-term degradation Increased tooth reduction becomes necessary to withstand the stress generated at the resin-dentin interface by the dentin flexion and com-pression
Enamel recontouring is guided by three aspects: (1) need to increase volume to the teeth’s facial surface, (2)
Trang 14Novel Guidelines for Bonded Ceramic Veneers: Part 1 Is Tooth Preparation Truly Necessary?
color of the dental substrate, and (3) path of insertion for
the ceramic restorations The color of the dental substrate
as well as the dental technician’s skills to work with reduced
space will determine the type of tooth preparation When
the dental shade is favorable, minimal or no tooth
prepara-tion is necessary However, in cases of tooth discoloraprepara-tion,
minimalenamel preparation might be necessary to allow
the technician to mask the discolored substrate
The path of insertion of a given bonded porcelain
ve-neer is the most important aspect for ideal tooth
reshap-ing There are two possible paths of insertion for ultrathin
veneers: facial and incisal The most conservative path of
insertion for ceramic veneers is the facial path of
inser-tion (FPI), which can be done perpendicular to the long
axis of the tooth (see Fig 8a) In this situation, a minimal
and calculated enamel recontouring might be necessary
to remove undercuts or to minimize the influence of the
proximal height of contour (crest of convexity)
Indications for the incisal path of insertion (IPI), when
the veneer must be inserted parallel to the long axis of
the tooth (see Fig 8b), are: (1) development of a new
emergence profile, (2) diastemas, and (3) reshaping of the
interdental papillae In any of these cases, interproximal
enamel recontouring is necessary so that the veneer will
extend toward the lingual marginal ridge
To ensure maximum enamel preservation, enamel
re-contouring must be guided by the mock-up and reduction
guides If subgingival preparation is necessary, a shallow
gingival finish line (< 0.3 mm of depth) should be used to
avoid both dentin exposure as well as subgingival
over-contour
Before the final impression is taken, the teeth
prepara-tions should be polished to ensure maximum adaptation
of the ceramic restoration and reduce the luting film
thick-ness The polishing should be done using multiple blades,
carbide burs, and flexible disks, as well as composite and
ceramic rubber polishing points
FINAL IMPRESSION
The location of the gingival finish line of the preparation
will determine the need for retraction cords during the
final impression In cases with no gingival finish line, the
final impression must be taken without retraction cords,
maintaining the gingiva in its natural position Retraction
cords change the gingival position apically, and the dental technician has no reference as to where the restoration should be finished Restorations with overcontoured gin-gival margins disrupt the natural emergence profile of the teeth, promoting plaque accumulation, gingival inflamma-tion, and, consequently, gingival retraction over time.12
To properly replicate the tooth structure as well as the soft tissue without using retraction cords, the final impres-sion should be taken in two steps (wash technique) with hard- and light-body PVS impression material
In cases of diastema closure, the interproximal gingiva must be displaced for the final impression A dual-cord technique must be used to allow proper remodeling of the interproximal papillae In this technique, two indepen-dent unconnected retraction cords (size #0) are carefully placed interproximally The first retraction cord is used to displace the mesial papilla while reshaping it into the de-sired interproximal papillae position The same procedure
is performed for the distal papilla (see Figs 13 and 48) The location of the retraction cords should be customized to allow the technician to create the new emergence profile
of the proximal surfaces and simultaneously reshape the interdental papillae into a more attractive esthetic contour
In non-diastema cases, retraction cords must be used to displace soft tissue and expose the gingival finish line when the tooth preparation extends subgingivally (see Fig 29)
TEMPORIZATION
One advantage of ultrathin bonded ceramic restorations and ceramic fragments is that no temporization of tooth preparations is necessary in most of the cases However, when provisional restorations are necessary, they can be fabricated using the same materials used for the mock-up
To ensure that the provisional restorations stay in tion, tooth preparations should be spot etched with phos-phoric acid and an etch-and-rinse adhesive system should
posi-be applied and light-cured (Self-etch or universal sive systems should not be used for temporization.) The impression with the chemical-cure bis-acryl resin is placed
adhe-in the patient’s mouth and all excesses removed after its polymerization Even though the interproximal areas are blocked by the splinted provisional restorations, the gin-gival embrasures must still open to allow cleaning of the areas with superfloss.20

Fig 26 After confirming that proportions and contours were correct in the mock-up, the preparation was limited only to removal of
the old restorations and enamel recontouring This step was performed over the mock-up to ensure maximum preservation of enamel, especially at the cervical third Once the mock-up was removed, enamel was polished using aluminum oxide disks, and the interproxi- mal contacts were lightened with metallic finishing strips
Figs 27a and 27b Silicone guides, based on the diagnostic wax-up, were used to verify if there was enough space for the ceramic
restorations in the middle and incisal thirds as well as proximal surfaces Any discrepancy found would be corrected using aluminum oxide disks.

CONCLUSIONS
To ensure long-term success of bonded ceramic veneers,
dental enamel must be preserved in its pristine condition
Thus, ultrathin bonded ceramic veneers are the primary
choice for anterior esthetic rehabilitation If preparation is
absolutely necessary (particularly regarding path of
inser-tion), maximum preservation of gingival enamel becomes a
must The gingival margin and finish line must be prepared
to less than 0.3 mm enamel reduction, limited to reshaping
overhangs and undercuts, and a finish line created only in
cases of subgingival preparation
Today it is unacceptable to sacrifice sound enamel to
create space for artificial restorative materials Bonding
techniques associated with novel laboratory techniques
have significantly evolved to allow maximum preservation
of dental tissues Therefore, subtractive restorative
tech-niques must be reconsidered, dogmas and myths
chal-lenged, and additive restorative techniques aiming for
to-tal preservation of dento-tal tissues considered as the main
choice for esthetic rehabilitation using bonding techniques

In recent years, as a result of the rapidly progressing
CAD/CAM technology, a large number of new ceramic and hybrid materials have been introduced While additional choices will benefi t the patient due to the expanded indications, they make it increasingly diffi cult for clinicians and technicians to keep informed in terms
all-of proper material selection and, more important, correct surface treatment and bonding protocols This article will review the surface treatment application techniques for bonding of silica-based ceramic materials
Tooth-colored all-ceramic and hybrid materials can be divided into three categories based on their composition:
(1) glass-matrix ceramics, which consist of nonmetallic
inorganic ceramics with a glass phase; (2) polycrystalline
ceramics, which consist of nonmetallic inorganic
ceram-ics without any glass phase; and (3) resin-matrix ceramceram-ics,
which consist of polymer matrices that contain inorganic refractory components, such as porcelains, glasses, ce-ramics, and glass-ceramics.1
Due to their optical properties and despite their tions in terms of strength, the glass-matrix ceramics, which are also termed silica-based ceramics,2 are one of the most commonly used materials for all-ceramic restorations Silica-based ceramic materials are listed in Table 1 The

glass matrix consists of mainly silicon dioxide (also called
silica or quartz) with various amounts of alumina The silica
content allows these materials to be etched with
hydro-fl uoric acid prior to bonding, whereas the polycrystalline
ceramics, such as alumina and zirconia, cannot be etched
due to the lack of the glass phase
While the purely glass-based ceramic systems are very
esthetic due to their high translucency, they have low
me-chanical properties To increase the strength of the glass
matrix, natural or synthetic crystals can be dispersed in it
This process is called dispersion strengthening, as it is more diffi cult for the dispersed crystals to be penetrated
by cracks so that crack propagation in the matrix can be stopped or slowed down.3 Natural leucite crystals derived from potassium feldspar can be found in several materi-als, such as IPS Empress Esthetic, IPS Empress CAD, IPS Classic (Ivoclar Vivadent), Vitadur, Vita VMK 68, and Vitablocs (VITA Zahnfabrik) Synthetic crystals consist of other leucite-based crystals, eg, IPS d.SIGN (Ivoclar Viva-dent), VM7, VM9, VM13 (VITA Zahnfabrik), Noritake EX-3,

A new class of materials containing glass-ceramic with
an interpenetrating resin matrix, also often referred to as
hybrid ceramic, has been introduced to the market fairly
re-cently Currently, the only hybrid ceramic material available is
VITA Enamic (VITA Zahnfabrik) It is composed of a dual
net-work with a feldspathic ceramic part (86% by weight/75%
by volume) and a polymer part (14% by weight/25% by
vol-ume) consisting of urethane dimeth acrylate (UDMA) and
triethylene glycol dimethacrylate (TEGDMA).4
BONDING MECHANISMS
The inherent mechanical properties of some of the
silica-based materials require adhesive cementation of the
res-torations, which increases their strength.5 To allow optimal and stable long-term bonding to the intaglio surface of the restoration, micromechanical retention and chemical treat-ment are required.2
Micromechanical Retention
Micromechanical retention can be achieved by altering the surface texture using either mechanical or chemical means, resulting in an enlarged surface area and microscopically small undercuts within the altered surface The applied cements or adhesives can fl ow into these undercuts and, when hardened, interlock to provide stable retention.6
Chemical Etching with HF Acid
One of the most common techniques to alter the surface is
by chemical treatment For this purpose, highly corrosive agents (Table 2), such as hydrofl uoric (HF) acid, are used

HF acid is used industrially for etching and polishing
glass-es, ceramics, and metals In addition to cleaning processglass-es,
it is also used for etching semiconductors.7 HF acid is an
aqueous solution of hydrogen fluoride Even though it is
considered a weak acid, it is still hazardous and very
cor-rosive Personal protective equipment must be worn during
handling, and the patient must be protected using rubber
dam Some countries prohibit the intraoral application of
HF acid Exposure of skin or other soft tissue to HF acid
will result in severe burns that penetrate quickly into
deeper layers and healing is very slow.7 Enamel and dentin
treated with HF acid have been shown to exhibit lower
bond strength values to composites.8,9
HF acid can selectively etch the glassy matrix of
silica-based ceramics Due to the higher affinity of fluoride to
silicon than to oxygen, HF acid and silica form
tetrafluo-rosilane: 4HF (aq) + SiO2 (s)➝SiF4 (g) + 2H2O (l) The
tet-rafluorosilane further reacts with HF and forms the soluble
hydrofluorosilicic acid: 4SiF4 (g) + 3H2O (l) + 2HF (aq)
➝ 3H2SiF6 (aq) + H2SiO3 (aq) Thus, the glassy matrix is
dissolved and can be rinsed away, leaving the surface
to-pography and roughness altered and allowing
microme-chanical retention.10,11 Surface roughness has been shown
to increase along with increasing concentrations of HF
acid.12,13 While the strength of silica-based ceramic with
leucite filler particles was shown to be reduced by
etch-ing compared to non-etched specimens, there was no
cor-relation between reduction in strength and concentration
among the etched groups.12,13 However, the strength
re-duction might not be of concern clinically, since adhesive bonding has been shown to result in the restoration of and
an even further increase of the strength values.5 For lithium disilicate– or fluorapatite-reinforced silica-based ceramics,
no decrease in strength has been shown regardless of HF acid application.5,14
For glass-ceramics containing leucite, an etching time
of 2 minutes with either 5% or 9.6% HF acid has
result-ed in the highest bond strength values (Fig 1).15,16 While the manufacturer-recommended etching time with 5%
HF acid is 20 seconds for optimal bonding to lithium silicate ceramic (Fig 2), some studies found higher bond strengths after 120 seconds of etching.17,18 Differences
di-in acid concentration also have been found; etchdi-ing with 4.9% HF acid resulted in lower bond strength compared to the same etching time with 9.5% HF acid.19 Etching of the hybrid ceramic material (VITA Enamic) for 60 seconds with 5% HF acid resulted in stabile long-term bond strength.20
Chemical Treatment with Novel Self-Etching Ceramic Primer
Due to the toxicity of HF acid, alternative etching mediums have been used, such as titanium tetrafluoride,21,22 acidu-lated phosphate fluoride gel,23,24 and ammonium hydrogen bifluoride.25,26 These materials showed results that were more or less comparable to HF acid application but require the separate application of a silane A recently introduced

approach in chemical surface treatment of silica-based
ceramics is the self-priming etchant (Monobond Etch &
Prime [MBEP], Ivoclar Vivadent), which reduces one step
in the technique-sensitive ceramic bonding protocol by
combining etching and silane application It consists of a
butanol-based mixture of tetrabutylammonium
dihydro-gen trifluoride as an etching medium and an organosilane
(bis-triethoxysilyl-ethane) that are applied to the ceramic
surface at the same time for a total of 40 seconds After
this step, the gel is rinsed off with water and after drying
the treated surface is ready for cementation An additional silane application step, as usually required for the conven-tional protocol with HF acid etching and coupling agent,
is not necessary with this novel material Because it is much milder and less toxic than HF acid, it might be a suit-able alternative to HF acid for intraoral repair of ceramic restorations However, it also does not create as deep an etching pattern as HF (Figs 3 to 7) Nonetheless, findings from the authors’ biomaterials laboratory revealed that bond strengths to leucite-reinforced glass-ceramic (IPS

were comparable to that of using HF acid etching in
com-bination with silane However, bonding to lithium disilicate–
reinforced glass-ceramics still seems to be a challenge for
this novel product.27
Mechanical Treatment
For surface treatment, bur grinding or airborne particle
abrasion using aluminum-oxide particles of various sizes
has been employed as well It is routinely used on non–
silica-based high-strength ceramics, such as zirconia and
alumina, due to their inertness and inability to be etched
with HF acid On glass-based ceramics, this treatment
has been shown to have a significant effect on surface
roughness and it also had a detrimental effect on flexural
strength when compared to HF acid.14,25,28,29 Regarding
bond strength, bur grinding and airborne particle abrasion
of lithium disilicate–reinforced glass-ceramic have been
shown to result in lower bond strengths compared to HF
acid etching.19,30,31 Therefore, silica-based ceramics should
not be treated with bur grinding or airborne particle
abra-sion, but only with HF acid
CHEMICAL BONDING
While micromechanical retention does have an important role, it is not the only factor leading to successful long-term bonding to silica-based ceramic materials.25,32 Chem-ical treatment further enhances bonding by applying coupling agents (Table 3), which are bifunctional mole-cules that allow a chemical reaction between the inor-ganic ceramic and the organic resin cement The most commonly used coupling agents are organosilanes, such
as γ-methacryloxypropyl trimethoxysilane Their methoxy group (-OCH3) is hydrolyzed in the presence of water to a silanol group (-Si-OH), which subsequently can bond with the hydroxyl groups on the surface of the ceramic, forming
a siloxane bond (-Si-O-Si-) The other functional group, a methacrylate group, is able to polymerize with the organic resin by forming a covalent bond.3,11 The silane also in-creases the hydrophobicity and wettability of the treated surface,33 thus enhancing its interaction with the hydro-phobic resin cements
Silanes are sold in two different forms They are either prehydrolyzed or unhydrolyzed The prehydrolyzed silanes are applied as one-bottle systems in a solvent that con-tains ethanol and water Unfortunately, this form has a

limited shelf life, because the hydrolized molecules may
autocondensate, especially in the presence of
atmospher-ic moisture Once the solution has changed to a cloudy or
milky appearance, the silane cannot be used.34 Two-bottle
systems, on the other hand, have increased shelf life,
be-cause they consist of a separate unhydrolyzed silane that
is mixed with an aqueous acetic acid solution at the time
of the procedure Upon mixing of the two components, the
hydrolysis is initiated.10,11
To improve the silanization process even further, the
use of heat has been advocated It is suggested that by
either placing the restoration into a furnace or blowing hot
air on it, both at 100°C, water, alcohol, and other products
would be removed and the covalent bond formation
be-tween silane and silica would be promoted.33,35 However,
recent studies did not support the benefi cial effect of heat
treatment in combination with silane application Moreover,
they stress the synergistic effect of HF acid and silane
application.36,37
It is important to remember that organosilanes achieve
optimal bonding to silica-based ceramic materials;
how-ever, they do not chemically bond to non–silica-based
ce-ramics, such as alumina and zirconia For these materials,
special monomers containing functional groups based on
phosphate ester or phosphonic acid are more suited.2,38
ADHESIVE/RESIN CEMENT
INTERACTION AND
SILANE-CONTAINING ADHESIVES
The additional application of bonding agent to the etched
and silanated ceramic surface prior to cement application
has been shown to be unbenefi cial39 or even detrimental
to bond strength.40 Self-etching adhesives showed lower
bond strengths than regular adhesives.16 Even the
incorpo-ration of silanes into the bonding agent, such as in the more
recently introduced universal bonding agents (Scotchbond
Universal, 3M ESPE, or All-Bond Universal, Bisco), was not
able to overcome this problem The application of
univer-sal bonding agents to silica-based ceramics without prior
HF acid etching and silane application is not
recommend-ed.41–43 While the combination of a universal bonding agent
with a self-adhesive cement resulted in a signifi cant drop
of bond strength after artifi cial aging,43 the combination
of the same bonding agent with a regular dual-cure resin cement did not.42 Besides the silane component, universal bonding agents also might contain special monomers on phosphate ester bases, such as 10-MDP, that chemically bond to zirconia but not to silica-based ceramics
CONTAMINATION
Throughout the bonding process, there can be several ways that contamination could interfere with the adhesive interaction between the ceramic surface and cement Dur-ing etching with HF acid, insoluble silica-fl uoride salts as byproducts precipitate on the surface.44 They might inhibit proper adaptation of the silane and cement, thus leading to
a reduction in bond strength These salts can be removed
by cleaning the restoration in an ultrasonic bath or by ing and rubbing the surface with phosphoric acid for 1 minute before application of the silane.44–46 While the phosphoric acid did have the ability to clean the surface, it does not increase the surface roughness and does not increase bond strength.31,44 In instances that the contami-nation with saliva, blood, or silicone try-in paste of a presi-lanized restoration has occurred during the try-in procedure, the bond strength of the cement to the ceramic will be compromised To remove the organic contaminants, air-borne particle abrasion and re-etching with HF acid have been proposed.47 However, these techniques might weak-
etch-en the ceramic material.13,21,28,31 Instead, the surface can be etched with phosphoric acid for 60 seconds.48 The applica-tion of 0.5% sodium hypochlorite solution for 20 seconds, followed by rinsing with water, has shown to be effective for cleaning leucite-reinforced but not lithium disilicate–reinforced glass-ceramic.49 Rinsing thoroughly with water,
or using alcohol, air polishing with sodium bicarbonate, or even using a special cleaning paste (Ivoclean, Ivoclar Viva-dent) did not clean the bonding surface of silica-based ce-ramics as well as etching with phosphoric acid.47,49 All cleaning approaches have to be followed by a reapplica-tion of fresh silane A more ideal situation would be to have the etching and silane application occur after the try-in procedure and then have the surface kept free from any contaminants until the execution of the bonding steps.45

NEUTRALIZATION, DISPOSAL,
AND EMERGENCY MEASURES
With insuffi cient rinsing of the HF acid, continuous etching
as well as the overall acidic environment can negatively
infl uence the polymerization of resinous cements
Neutral-ization of the acid with agents such as sodium carbonate
powder (IPS Neutralizing Powder, Ivoclar Vivadent) has
been suggested.50,51 The neutralizing agent can remove
the precipitant that is formed during etching by forming
sodium fl uoride and the unstable carbonic acid.51 However,
studies have shown that such approaches did not enhance
bond strength and even led to increased contact-angle
measurements by leaving behind the agent’s own
pre-cipitates and thus negatively affecting bond strength.50–52
Thus, acid neutralization appears to be unnecessary, since
similar neutralizing effects could easily be achieved by
thorough rinsing of the etched surface with an air-water
spray for 30 seconds.50,51
While neutralization of HF acid does not appear to be
important in terms of bonding, it is crucial during
emergen-cy management and for disposal of HF acid Due to the
corrosiveness of HF acid, compatible containers (no glass
or metal containers) in accordance with local hazardous
waste management regulations must be used
Addition-ally, HF acid can be neutralized, eg, with sodium carbonate
powder, or diluted with water before disposal.7 When
han-dling HF acid, proper personal protective equipment must
be used
If accidental exposure of any tissue should occur,
in-tensive rinsing with water followed by application of
ap-propriate neutralizing agents is advised Calcium gluconate
in various forms—gel for skin exposure, eye drops for eye
injury, and nebulized spray after inhalation—and
benzalko-nium chloride for nail injury are indicated as fi rst aid
mea-sures after HF acid exposure.7 In any case, a doctor must
be consulted
CONCLUSION
While novel systems have been recently introduced to
sim-plify the bonding protocol to etchable glass-ceramics,
treat-ment with HF acid followed by silane application can still
be considered as the gold standard to ensure long-term
successful adhesive effectiveness to ceramic restorations

Analog Protocol for Obtaining the Ideal
Soft Tissue Support and Contour in
Anterior Implant Restorations
The restoration of a single anterior tooth with an
implant-supported prosthesis can be an esthetic challenge The final results are influenced by three main parameters: bone level and thickness, soft tissue contour and stability, and the clinical crown appearance
Many articles describe different techniques for ing the ideal emergence profile of the implant restoration, mainly defining the ideal soft tissue contour by the provi-sional restoration Still it is sometimes difficult to quantify and determine the ideal soft tissue support and emer-gence profile in some cases
develop-This case presentation demonstrates a technique that will allow the clinician and the dental technician to deter-mine the ideal soft tissue support for challenging anterior implant restorations It describes step by step the analog treatment modalities for copying the ideal, natural root form

CASE PRESENTATION
Diagnosis and Treatment Planning
A 32-year-old woman presented with a fractured right
central incisor (Fig 1) The tooth was splinted with a
com-posite retainer to the adjacent teeth Radiographic
evalu-ation showed a satisfactory endodontic treatment (Fig 2)
Probing depth did not exceed 4 mm in any of the
exam-ined areas Moderate gingival inflammation was present,
especially on the distal aspect of the tooth A cone beam
computed tomography (CBCT) scan confirmed light bone
loss on the buccal aspect and adequate apical bone
re-The extracted tooth will be used to determine the gingival contour for the provisional crown/abutment as well as for the final crown Since the natural root dimen-sions will be copied, the soft tissue support and design should be ideal (Figs 8 to 11)
