Abstract
As dental practices and methodologies evolve, the emergence of novel materials adds complexity to clinical choices. While glass ceramics, particularly those based on lithium disilicate and leucite-reinforced variants, have been extensively researched and are well regarded for their attributes, hybrid ceramics remain relatively recent area of research that is less investigated. This review aims to evaluate the durability of glass and hybrid ceramics while assessing the role of various adhesive techniques on restoration longevity. Using a comprehensive search of PubMed and EMBASE, 84 articles from the past decade were found. Only eleven met the set criteria for analysis. The results underscore the urgent need for the extended monitoring of partial prosthetic restorations. The existing literature has significant gaps, hindering the attainment of dependable insights about these materials' long-term performance. For a clearer understanding of how different ceramic systems affect restoration survival rates, rigorous research involving more participants and uniform outcome documentation is vital.
