In vitro evaluation of the use of resin liners to reduce microleakage and improve retention of amalgam restorations.
This in vitro study evaluated the ability of three commercially available adhesive resins to reduce microleakage and provide retention between amalgam restorations and tooth structure. Results indicated that Amalgambond reduced leakage significantly more than Panavia EX, Prisma Universal Bond 2, and Copalite. In addition Amalgambond and Panavia EX exhibited the ability to bond amalgam to tooth structure. These results suggest that Amalgambond has the potential for serving successfully as a cavity liner with amalgam.
