An evaluation of bond strengths of denture repair resins by a torsional method.
Chemical cure resin materials are generally used in the repair of dentures. Different repair resins used may yield different results. The bond strength of three autopolymerizing resins were evaluated using a torsional test method. The results showed that Palapress and Caulk resins had a higher repair strength than Rapid Repair resin.
