What is the cement of choice for a lithium disilicate (e.max) crown?
Show answer and explanation
Correct answer: A. Resin cement
- A. Correct. Lithium disilicate is best bonded with resin cement after HF etching and silane, maximizing strength and retention.
- B. Zinc phosphate provides no adhesive bond and is not recommended for bonded ceramics.
- C. Glass ionomer is used for high-strength zirconia/metal copings, not optimally for etchable e.max.
- D. Polycarboxylate is not the recommended luting agent for lithium disilicate.
