If the column is a timestamp you can do the following:
if(fromDate!=null){
criteria.add(Restrictions.sqlRestriction("TRUNC(COLUMN) >= TO_DATE('" + dataFrom + "','dd/mm/yyyy')"));
}
if(toDate!=null){
criteria.add(Restrictions.sqlRestriction("TRUNC(COLUMN) <= TO_DATE('" + dataTo + "','dd/mm/yyyy')"));
}
resultDB = criteria.list();
