| dc.description.abstract | A comparison was made of the shear bond strengths between microwave-polymerized and conventional water bath-cured polymethyl methacrylate (PMMA) bonded to denture teeth. Four groups of 15 specimens were prepared and shear bond strengths obtained by use of standardized laboratory testing methods. The results showed that microwave-cured PMMA demonstrated significantly (p 0.0001) higher bond strengths than conventional PMMA, and priming of the denture tooth surface with monomer liquid yielded significantly higher bond strengths than other surface treatment (p 0.0001). | en_US |
