title: Adhesion characteristics of visible light-cured denture base material bonded to resilient lining materials.
abstract: This investigation compared the adhesion of resilient lining materials to Triad visible light-cured denture base material. The liners used were Tru-Soft, Molloplast-B, and Esscheem. Cylindrical samples were made from Triad VLC material and were sectioned to produce a flat bonding surface, which was roughened and treated with Triad bonding agent. Resilient liners 3 mm thick were processed according to the manufacturer's recommendations and samples were stored at 37 degrees +/- 1 degree C in distilled water for 48 hours and 30 days. Tensile bond strength was determined by using an Instron Universal testing machine for the three resilient liners.
