Purpose: To conduct a systematic review and meta-analysis of in-vitro bond strength to glass-ceramics using hydrofluoric acid (HF) at lower (<5%) and higher (>5%) concentrations ([HF]) to treat ceramic surfaces.

Methods: Systematic searches were carried out in PubMed, Scopus, LILACS, and Web of Science for articles published through July 2021, and a meta-analysis was performed to estimate the combined effect by comparing the differences between the standardized means of the bond strengths of the evaluated materials.

Results: In total, 943 articles were found, of which 17 studies were selected for qualitative analysis and 12 for quantitative analysis.
