title: The bond strengths of various adhesives used for Maryland Bridges.
abstract: The tensile bond strengths of three groups of adhesives to two electrolytically etched alloys were studied. It was found that the bis-GMA composite resins gave statistically similar bond strengths. The newer Japanese acrylics tested gave statistically higher results than the bis-GMA resins. The clinical significance of these results is discussed.
