Resin retention by immersion-etched alloy.
An immersion technique for etching a nonnoble alloy was described. Shear strength measurements were made to compare the bonding of composite luting cement to immersion-etched alloy and to alloy etched by the electrolytic process. The study showed that statistically significant differences in the retention of cement could not be attributed to the method of etching.
