title: Adhesion of composite resin to bone--a pilot study.
abstract: This pilot study investigated the adhesion of composite resin to pig calvarium using All-bond 2 dentine bonding agent in an in vitro model. The bone was subjected to different methods of preparation. Acid-etching decreased the bond strength between bone and composite. Roughening the bone with a surgical bur prior to application of the adhesive produced bond strengths in the range 11.1-16.1 MPa.
