The materials used in dentistry are changing day by day and gaining variety. Despite these developments, most of the clinical failures are due to problems in the cement connection. Nowadays, resin cements with high compression and tensile strength are frequently preferred in cases that require retention and aesthetic expectations due to these positive properties. The bonding between different materials is defined as "adhesion". With increasing surface tension, surface energy increases, and with increasing surface energy, adhesion strength increases. The resin cements used in the cementation process must be strongly bonded to both the tooth and the restorative material in order for the restoration to be successful for a long time. It is important to create a strong surface wettability, chemical bonding and micromechanical interlocking to strengthen the bonding of materials with teeth. It is possible to increase the connection with some surface modification methods to be applied. Surface treatments are the process of strengthening the biological and mechanical properties of the materials without changing the general properties, affecting the surface properties. The positive properties of the materials are preserved during these processes. For this purpose, before the cementation process, some surface treatments are applied to the restorations to increase the adhesion strength. The aim of this review is to provide detailed information about adhesion concepts, adhesive systems and resin containing cements, which are of great importance in prosthetic dental treatment.
