Shear Bond Strength Between Nickel-chromium and Human Dentine Using a Dual-cure, Self-adhesive Universal Resin Luting Agent

Abstract

Abstrract - The adhesive property of a dual-cure, self-adhesive universal resin luting agent (Rely X Unicem, 3M ESPE) between nickel-chromium (Ni-Cr) and human dentine was compared with three conventional resin luting agents (Calibra, Dentsply; Panavia-F, Kuraray; All-bond 2 C & B cement, Bisco). Ten Ni-Cr rods were bonded to human dentine with each of the four luting agents, and were subjected to shear bond test. Results showed that there was no significant difference in shear bond strengths among the luting agents. A dual-cure, self-adhesive universal resin luting agent was shown to have comparable adhesive property between Ni-Cr and human dentine as three other conventional resin luting agents. Given the simplicity of use of the dual-cure, self-adhesive universal resin luting agent, it appears to be promising in clinical applications.
