A、Overall 10 publications with clinical trials could be identified. Their clinical outcome was compared with that laboratory bond strength studies.

B、Clinical data provide strong evidence that air-abrasion at a moderate pressure in combination with using phosphate monomer containing primers and/or luting resins provide long-term durable bonding to glass-infiltrated alumina and zirconia ceramic under the humid and stressful oral conditions.

C、As simple and clinically reliable bonding methods to oxide ceramics exist, the rationale for development of alternative bonding methods might be reconsidered especially when these methods are more time consuming or require rather complicated and/or technique sensitive procedures.

Children can go from euphoria to complete meltdowns in as little as 60 seconds. Families fly from one activity to the next while parents fret over the need to buy ideal gifts. In the rush to create picture-perfect holiday memories, we often fall into the trap of creating giant to-do lists, impossible to successfully complete.
