Effect of Different Luting Protocols on the Bond Strength of Fiber-Reinforced CAD/CAM Blocks.

ABSTRACT: The aim was to evaluate the shear-bond strength (SBS) of experimental short fiber-reinforced CAD/CAM composites (SFRC-CAD) and commercial CAD/CAM composites (Cerasmart 270) to different luting resin composites before and after hydrothermal aging. Discs (2 mm) obtained from SFRC-CAD and Cerasmart 270 were air-particle abraded and treated with a primer (G-CEM One Enhancing Primer) with or without universal adhesive (G2 Bond). A fiber-reinforced flowable composite (everX Flow) and a self-adhesive resin cement (G-CEM One) were used as luting materials under direct or indirect curing conditions. Thirty-two experimental groups were determined based on restorative material, bonding protocol, luting resin, curing technique, and aging procedure (n = 8/group). SBS was measured after 24 h of water st
