Shear bond strengths for composite and autopolymerized acrylic resins bonded to acrylic resin denture teeth.

Statement of problem. Composite has been used to modify acrylic resin denture teeth. Purpose. This in vitro investigation examined the shear bond strengths between composite and autopolymerized acrylic resin bonded to acrylic resin denture teeth. Material and methods. The surface treatments used for the denture teeth included wetting with methyl methacrylate (MMA), vinylethyl methacrylate monomer (VEMA), unfilled liquid resin, composite bonding agent, and composite color modifier. Nonhydrated and hydrated denture tooth groups were included. A commercial composite was bonded to the denture teeth. The control group consisted of autopolymerized PMMA resin bonded to the acrylic resin denture teeth, and another group consisted of polyvinylethyl methacrylate bonded to acrylic resin denture teeth. The samples were thermocycled and tested in shear. Results. Acrylic resin denture teeth prewetted with MMA and treated with unfilled resin or a bonding agent had bond strength values comparable to the control group. VEMA was not as effective in promoting the bond. Composite color modifier did not produce a significantly weaker bond between the acrylic resin teeth and added composite. No prewetting of the teeth with MMA resulted in the lowest bond strength. Mean shear bond strengths for corresponding hydrated and non-hydrated groups were not significantly different. Conclusion. Bond strength of composite-to-acrylic resin denture teeth was comparable to the bond strength of autopolymerized acrylic resin.

Effect of surface treatments on the bond strength between composite resin and acrylic resin denture teeth.

PURPOSE: This investigation studied the effects of 3 surface treatments on the shear bond strength of a light-activated composite resin bonded to acrylic resin denture teeth. MATERIALS AND METHODS: The occlusal surfaces of 30 acrylic resin denture teeth were ground flat with up to 400-grit silicon carbide paper. Three different surface treatments were evaluated: (1) the flat ground surfaces were primed with methyl methacrylate (MMA) monomer for 180 seconds; (2) light-cured adhesive resin was applied and light polymerized according to the manufacturer's instructions; and (3) treatment 1 followed by treatment 2. The composite resin was packed on the prepared surfaces using a split mold. The interface between tooth and composite was loaded at a cross-head speed of 0.5 mm/min until failure. RESULTS: Analysis of variance indicated significant differences between the surface treatments. Results of mean comparisons using Tukey's test showed that significantly higher shear bond strengths were developed by bonding composite resin to the surfaces that were previously treated with MMA and then with the bonding agent when compared to the other treatments. CONCLUSION: Combined surface treatment of MMA monomer followed by application of light-cured adhesive resin provided the highest shear bond strength between composite resin and acrylic resin denture teeth.

The bonding of cold-cured acrylic resin to acrylic denture teeth.

The necessary improvement of the bonding of denture teeth to the base resin has been hampered by inconsistent results and the consequent lack of clear guidance as to the best procedure to use. This state of affairs is in part due to poor experimental design. The tensile strength of notched planar interfaces between acrylic denture tooth material and cold-cured acrylic resin was determined for various treatments under a protocol designed to minimize spurious failures. The tooth material treatment consisting of grinding and exposure to a methyl methacrylate-trichloromethane mixture was, of those treatments, the most reliable in that no interfacial failures were observed. Strength was indistinguishable from that of both tooth and base acrylic under the same conditions.

Water sorption, solubility, and bond strength of two autopolymerizing acrylic resins and one heat-polymerizing acrylic resin.

STATEMENT OF PROBLEM: Because water sorption of autopolymerizing acrylic reline resins is accompanied by volumetric change, it is a physical property of importance. As residual monomer leaches into the oral fluids and causes tissue irritation, low solubility of these resins is desired. Another requirement is a satisfactory bond between the autopolymerizing acrylic resins and the denture base acrylic resin. PURPOSE: This study compared the water sorption, solubility, and the transverse bond strength of 2 autopolymerizing acrylic resins (Duraliner II and Kooliner) and 1 heat-polymerizing acrylic resin (Lucitone 550). MATERIAL AND METHODS: The water sorption and solubility test was performed as per International Standards Organization Specification No. 1567 for denture base polymers. Bond strengths between the autopolymerizing acrylic resins and the heat-polymerizing acrylic resin were determine with a 3-point loading test made on specimens immersed in distilled water at 37 degrees C for 50 hours and for 30 days. Visual inspection determined whether failures were adhesive or cohesive. RESULTS: Duraliner II acrylic resin showed significantly lower water sorption than Kooliner and Lucitone 550 acrylic resins. No difference was noted in the solubility of all materials. Kooliner acrylic resin demonstrated significantly lower transverse bond strength to denture base acrylic resin and failed adhesively. The failures seen with Duraliner II acrylic resin were primarily cohesive in nature. CONCLUSIONS: Autopolymerizing acrylic reline resins met water sorption and solubility requirements. However, Kooliner acrylic resin demonstrated significantly lower bond strength to denture base acrylic resin.

The bond strength of a visible light-cured reline resin to acrylic resin denture base material.

The introduction of Triad visible light-cured denture resin has led to several applications. Among them is direct intraoral relining of complete and partial dentures. This study investigated the bonding characteristics of Triad reline resin to four commonly used heat-cured denture base resins. The shear and tensile bond strengths of Triad resin and four denture base resins were determined and compared with intact tensile strengths. The findings of this study indicate that the bond strength of Triad resin to denture base resin is sufficiently high to suggest its clinical applicability.

Failure load of acrylic resin denture teeth bonded to high impact acrylic resins.

STATEMENT OF PROBLEM: Techniques for bonding denture teeth to an acrylic resin denture base remain empirical, with little consensus from the literature, among clinicians, or among dental laboratories. PURPOSE: This study evaluated the failure load of acrylic resin teeth bonded to 2 high impact acrylic resins. METHODS AND MATERIAL: The ridge lap portion on 120 identical denture teeth were modified with 3 variables: (1) placing a diatoric, (2) using monomer to prewet the denture tooth, and (3) breaking the glaze. Variables were combined to form 6 groups of 10 teeth each, and processed with Lucitone 199 (Lucitone) or SR-Ivocap (Ivocap) acrylic resin. Data analysis included the use of a heterogeneous variance linear regression model. RESULTS: Mean (+/- SD) failure load ranged between 10.25 +/- 1.48 Kg to 28.43 +/- 11.05 Kg for the 6 Ivocap groups and 16.63 +/- 5.87 Kg to 28.05 +/- 5.35 Kg for the Lucitone groups. For Lucitone 199 acrylic resin, the highest failure loads resulted when the ridge lap was left with an intact glaze and did not have a diatoric, with no significant influence from the use of monomer. For Ivocap resin, the highest failure loads resulted when the ridge lap had a diatoric but did not have monomer placed, with no significant influence from glaze. CONCLUSION: Failure load of bonding highly cross-linked denture teeth to SR-Ivocap or Lucitone 199 acrylic resin was significantly influenced by modifications to the ridge lap before processing.

The effect of notch shape and self-cured acrylic resin repair on the fatigue resistance of an acrylic resin denture base.

This study compares four different notch shapes made on the anterior margin of the palatal plates of heat-cured acrylic resin test specimens as well as the effect of self-cured acrylic resin repair on the fatigue resistance of dentures. The test specimens had the shape of an upper partial denture (n = 25). The fatigue test applied was a constant-force fatigue test at a force of 150 N. The stress concentrations during loading the replicas of the test specimens were determined in the field of a circular polarized light. The results showed that the fatigue resistance of the test specimens decreased dramatically (P = 0.002) when there was a notch at the anterior margin of the palatal plate in the test specimen. A 90 degree notch decreased the fatigue resistance most effectively. The test specimens repaired with self-cured acrylic resin were also weaker than the original unnotched test specimens. Examination of the replicas in the field of polarized light showed that stresses occurred only very close to the notch. The highest stress concentrations were detected in the test specimen with a 90 degree notch, i.e. the test specimens with the lowest fatigue resistance. The results of this study suggest that the shape of the anterior margin of the palatal plate in the acrylic resin-based partial denture plays an important role in the fatigue resistance of the dentures.

Porosity in boilable acrylic resin.

An acrylic resin developed to be processed by boiling for 20 minutes in water was compared to a conventional heat-processed acrylic resin for porosity when processed according to the manufacturer's directions. No porosity was found in the conventional resin in thicknesses up to 19.5 mm. The boilable resin developed porosity in thicknesses of 6 mm and greater. The porosity increased with increased thickness. The boilable resins should not be used for long-term prostheses or those requiring a thickness of acrylic resin that approaches 6 mm.

Porosity reduction and its associated effect on the diametral tensile strength of activated acrylic resins.

Each acrylic resin tested is basic to the armamentarium of the clinical dentist. From this study it is apparent that there exist several possible mechanisms that will aid in the reduction of porosity and subsequently enhance the tensile strength properties of chemically activated acrylic resins. With the manufacturer's recommended powder to liquid ratio mixtures, indications are that only small increases in curing pressure (approximately 0.68 MPa) are required to substantially enhance strength levels of the test materials. Therefore, when cured under conditions that avoid residual stress buildup, the small increases in pressure attainable by modified pressurization devices may indeed be of benefit in reducing porosity and enhancing the tensile strength of the acrylic resins. Similar increases in strength appear possible with various combinations of powder particle sizes and powder/liquid ratios used in an effort to reduce the monomer concentration in clinically desirable acrylic mixtures. It is important to realize that alteration of powder/liquid ratio and powder particle size mixtures offers a method of reducing porosity without the addition of external pressure. However, at this time it is not recommended that these sophisticated alterations of the basic resin components be performed by the clinician.
