Bonding fixed prosthodontic composite resin and precious metal alloys with the use of a vinyl-thiol primer and an adhesive opaque resin.
Adhesive bonding of a light-cured fixed prosthodontic composite resin joined to silver- and gold-based alloys was investigated with the use of a metal primer and an adhesive opaque resin. The primer contained an adhesive bonding promoter for precious alloys, 6- (4-vinylbenzyl-n-propyl) amino-1, 3, 5-triazine-2, 4-dithiol (VBATDT). The cast metal specimens were alumina-blasted and primed with VBATDT acetone solution. A self-curable 4-META/MMA-TBB opaque resin was used to bond the primed metals and a light-cured composite resin. Prepared specimens were thermocycled in water and bond strengths were determined. The shear bond strengths after 100,000 thermocycles (4 degrees C to 60 degrees C for 1 minute) were 28.4 MPa for Ag-Pd-Cu-Au alloy and 20.8 MPa for type III gold alloy. This simple method may be used to bond silver or gold alloy and light-activated fixed prosthodontic composite resin.
