Aim: To compare and evaluate the shear bond strength of the tooth-denture base junction when three different commercially available acrylic resin base bonded to acrylic teeth with and without application of methyl methacrylate monomer on ridge lap area.
Materials and methods: A three-stepped cylindrical shaped die was customized. Sixty samples were fabricated with heat cure and self-cure acrylic resin with and without monomer application. A total of 60 samples were divided into three groups and six subgroups.
Group A–Twenty samples of Trevlon-HI heat-activated acrylic resin.
Subgroup A1–Ten samples of acrylic teeth bonded with Trevlon-HI heat- activated acrylic resin with the application of monomer on ridge lap area.
Subgroup A2–Ten samples of acrylic teeth bonded with Trevlon-HI heat-activated acrylic resin without application of monomer on ridge lap area.
Group B–Twenty samples of Trevalon heat-activated acrylic resin.
Subgroup B1–Ten samples of acrylic teeth bonded with Trevlon heat-activated acrylic resin with the application of monomer on ridge lap area.
Subgroup B2–Ten samples of acrylic teeth bonded with Trevlon heat-activated acrylic resin without application of monomer on ridge lap area.
Group C–Twenty samples of Trevlon-RR self-activated acrylic resin.
Subgroup C1–Ten samples of acrylic teeth bonded with Trevlon-RR self-activated acrylic resin with the application of monomer on ridge lap area.
Subgroup C2–Ten samples of acrylic teeth bonded with Trevlon-RR self-activated acrylic resin without monomer application on ridge lap area.
Results: Samples obtained from high impact heat cure acrylic resin with monomer application shows higher bond strength when tested under the universal testing machine.
Conclusion: With and without monomer application on high impact polymethylmethacrylate (PMMA) resin and Heat cured resin it was found that high impact shows better bond strength. Trevlon HI monomer shows a greater increase in strength due to the presence of cross-linking agents.
Clinical significance: The incorporation of mechanical surface treatments followed by monomer application significantly influences the bonding between denture teeth and denture base resin.
