Comparison of the Clinical Performance of High Strength Hybrid Ceramic Indirect Restorations Cemented on Endodontically Treated Teeth Using Bioactive Versus Conventional Self Adhesive Resin Cements.

Clinical Performance of CAD/CAM Hard Hybrid Ceramic Overlays on Endodontically Treated Molars Using Bioactive Versus Conventional Self-Adhesive Resin Cement: Two-Year Randomized Clinical Trial

Cementation of indirect restoration is a determinant of the success or failure of the fabricated restoration and consequentially the entire tooth. While there are numerous commercially available resin cements in the dental market, not all have been sufficiently assessed with significant follow up periods to clinically determine their success or failure. As such, this research will be conducted to elucidate if there is a viability to the cementation of indirect hybrid ceramic blocks over endodontically treated teeth using bioactive self-adhesive resin cement and determining whether it provides a clinical advantage and improved restoration serviceability in the oral cavity.
