Abstract

Optimum bond strength between denture soft liner and denture base resin is very important for the success of any denture prosthesis. The tensile bond strength of two commercially available silicone-based heat cured (Molloplast B) and auto polymerizing (Mollosil) was compared with denture base material (trevalon). Molloplast B-trevalon bond in both un-polymerized (dough stage) and already polymerized forms were also compared. Lloyds Universal testing machine was used to test 60 samples. Molloplast B bond strength was greater than Mollosil soft denture liner; it was even greater when packed against trevalon in an un-polymerized form than an already polymerized trevalon using primo adhesive. Both the soft lining materials used are acceptable for clinical usage.

Keywords: Auto polymerizing soft denture liner, Denture base resin, Heat cure soft denture liner, Tensile bond strength
