Statement of problem: The failure of adhesion between the resilient denture liner and the denture base is a serious problem in clinic. Purpose: The purpose of this study was to evaluate the effect of denture base resin surface pretreatments (mechanical and/or chemical) on the tensile bond strength between a resilient liner and processed denture resin. Material and method. Acrylic-based resilient liners (Soft liner; GC co., Japan & Coe-Soft; GC America Inc. USA) and silicone-based resilient liners (Mucosoft, Parkell Inc., USA & Dentusil; Bosworth co., USA) were used. Specimens in each soft lining material were divided two groups with or without mechanical pretreatment. Each denture base specimen received 1 of 4 chemical pretreatments including: (1) no treatment, (2) 30-s acetone treatment, (3) 15-s methylene chloride treatment, (4) 180-s methyl methacrylate treatment. All specimens were thermocycled and placed under tension until failure in a universal testing machine. Results: 1. Silicone-based resilient liners exhibited significantly higher tensile bond strengths than acrylic-based resilient liners (P<.05). 2. Grinding the denture base resin improved tensile bond strengths of silicone-based resilient liners, but reduced tensile bond strengths of acrylic-based resilient liners (P<.05). 3. In acrylic-based resilient liners, treating with acetone significantly increased the bond strength of Soft liner and treating with methyl methacrylate significantly increased the bond strength of Coe-Soft (P<.05). However they were not effective compared to silicone-based resilient liner. 4. In silicone-based resilient liners, treating with all chemical etchants significantly increased the bond strength of Mucosoft to denture base, and treating with methylene chloride and methyl methacrylate increased the bond strength of Dentusil to denture base (P<.05). Conclusion: Although chemical and mechanical pretreatments were not effective on tensile bond strength of acrylic-based resilent liner to denture base, treating the denture base resin surface with appropriate chemical etchants after mechanical pretreatment significantly increased the tensile bond strength of silicone-based resilient liner to denture base.

PURPOSE. The purpose of this study was to investigate the bonding properties of denture bases to silicone-based soft denture liners immersed in isobutyl methacrylate (iBMA) and 2-hydroxyethyl methacrylate (HEMA) for various lengths of time. MATERIALS AND METHODS. Polymethyl methacrylate (PMMA) test specimens were fabricated (75 mm in length, 12 mm in diameter at the thickest section, and 7 mm at the thinnest section) and then randomly assigned to five groups (n=15); untreated (Group 1), resilient liner immersed in iBMA for 1 minute (Group 2), resilient liner immersed in iBMA for 3 minutes (Group 3), resilient liner immersed in HEMA for 1 minute (Group 4), and resilient liner immersed in HEMA for 3 minutes (Group 5). The resilient liner specimens were processed between 2 PMMA blocks. Bonding strength of the liners to PMMA was compared by tensile test with a universal testing machine at a crosshead speed of 5 mm/min. Data were evaluated by 1-way ANOVA and post hoc Tukey-Kramer multiple comparisons tests (${\alpha}$=0.05). RESULTS. The highest mean value of force was observed in Group 3 specimens. The differences between groups were statistically significant (P<.05), except between Group 1 and Group 4 (P=.063). CONCLUSION. Immersion of silicone-based soft denture liners in iBMA for 3 minutes doubled the tensile bond strength between the silicone soft liner and PMMA denture base materials compared to the control group.

PURPOSE. Purpose of this study was to evaluate effect of two surface treatments, sandblasting and monomer treatment, on tensile bond strength between two long term resilient liners and poly (methyl methacrylate) denture base resin. MATERIALS AND METHODS. Two resilient liners Super-Soft and Molloplast-B were selected. Sixty acrylic resin (Trevalon) specimens with cross sectional area of $10{\times}10$ mm were prepared and divided into two groups of 30 specimens each. Each group was surface treated (n = 10) by sandblasting (250 ${\mu}$ alumina particles), monomer treatment (for 180 sec) and control (no surface treatment). Resilient liners were processed between 2 poly(methyl methacrylate) surfaces, in the dimensions of $10{\times}10{\times}3$ mm. Tensile strength was determined with Instron Universal testing machine, at a crosshead speed of 5 mm/min; and the modes of failure (adhesive, cohesive or mixed) were recorded. The data were analyzed using one-way ANOVA, followed by Tukey HSD test (${\alpha}$= 0.05). RESULTS. Monomer pretreatment of acrylic resin produced significantly higher bond strengths when compared to sandblasting and control for both resilient liners (P < .001). Sandblasting significantly decreased the bond strength for both the liners when compared to monomer pretreatment and control (P < .001). Mean bond strength of Super-Soft lined specimens was significantly higher than Molloplast-B in various surface treatment groups (P < .05). CONCLUSION. Surface pretreatment of the acrylic resin with monomer prior to resilient liner application is an effective method to increase bond strength between the base and soft liner. Sandblasting, on the contrary, is not recommended as it weakens the bond between the two.

PURPOSE. The aim of this study was to evaluate the effect of paracetic acid (PAA) and ozone disinfection on the tensile bond strength (TBS) of silicone-based resilient liners to acrylic resins. MATERIALS AND METHODS. One hundred and twenty dumbbell shaped heat-polymerized acrylic resins were prepared. From the mid segment of the specimens, 3 mm of acrylic were grinded off and separated parts were reattached by resilient liners. The specimens were divided into 2 control (control1, control7) and 4 test groups of PAA and ozone disinfection (PAA1, PAA7, ozone1 and ozone7; n=10). While control groups were immersed in distilled water for 10 min (control1) and 7 days (control7), test groups were subjected to PAA (16 g/L) or ozone rich water (4 mg/L) for 1 cycle (10 min for PAA and 60 min for ozone) per day for 7 days prior to tensile tests. Measurements of the TBS were analyzed using 3-way ANOVA and Tukey's HSD test. RESULTS. Adhesive strength of Mollosil decreased significantly by application of ozone disinfection. PAA disinfection had no negative effect on the TBS values of Mollosil and Molloplast B to acrylic resin. Single application of ozone disinfection did not have any negative effect on TBS values of Molloplast B, but prolonged exposure to ozone decreased its adhesive strength. CONCLUSION. The adhesion of resilient liners to acrylic was not adversely affected by PAA disinfection. Immersion in ozonated water significantly decreased TBS of Mollosil. Prolonged exposure to ozone negatively affects adhesion of Molloplast B to denture base materials.

PURPOSE. This study was aimed to determine the effect of two chemically distinct denture cleansers and water on the surface hardness of acrylic and silicone based soft denture liners at various time intervals. MATERIALS AND METHODS. Two commonly used commercial resilient liner material were selected based on their chemical composition (silicone- and acrylic-based soft liners) for this investigation. 120 cylindrical specimens were made of $15mm{\times}10mm$ dimensions (according to ASTM: D-2240-64T) in a custom made metal mold. All specimens were stored in artificial saliva throughout the study. Forty specimens were cleansed daily in 0.5% sodium hypochlorite solution; forty were cleansed in sodium perborate and remaining forty specimens were daily rinsed in water. Testing was done at 1 week, 1 month, 3 months and 6 months for surface hardness using a Shore A Durometer. A mean of 3 reading for each sample was subjected to one-way ANOVA, Post Hoc test and pair-t test for statistical analysis. P values of less than 0.05 were taken as statistically significant. RESULTS. Surface hardness of all the samples was significantly higher after a period of 6 months irrespective of the cleansing treatment. Minor changes were observed between control, sodium hypochlorite and sodium perborate groups with time. Greater change was observed in surface hardness of acrylic-based soft denture liners as compared to silicone-based soft liners for all groups, as time progressed. CONCLUSION. Silicone-based soft denture liners performed significantly better in all cleansing treatments than acrylic-based soft denture liners.

이 연구는 임상적으로 많이 쓰이는 3종의 조직양화제(Coe-comfort, GC Soft-Liner, Visco-Gel)의 시간에 따른 체적 안정성을 비교하였다. 시편은 10mm의 반경으로 두께를 1.5mm, 3.0mm로 각각 제작하여 두께에 따른 차이를 비교하였다. 체적의 변화는 시편 제작 후 1시간 (baseline), 12시간, 24시간, 36시간, 3일, 7일에 측정하였다. SAS 6.04 통계 package program을 이용하여 ANOVA분석하였다. 실험한 조직양화제에서는 점탄성을 상실하여 조직양화제를 교체하거나 기공 과정을 하기에 적합한 시간은 변형이 적은 혼합 후 36시간~3일이었다. Tissue conditioner의 종류에 따라 시간의 경과에 따른 탄성 변화량에는 유의할 만한 차이가 있었다(p<0.05). 조직양화제 1.5mm, 3.0mm 두께에 의해 체적안정성에 유의한 차이가 있었다(p<0.05). 자체의 이상적인 탄성 변형과 복원력만을 비교 하였을 때를 보면, Visco-Gel 3.0mm군에서 가장 안정적인 체적안정성을 보였다. 또한, 조직 양화제는 재료 간의 체적 안정성에 다양한 범위가 있어 기능인상에 적합한 것을 선택을 하는 것이 중요하다.

연성 이장재를 의치에 적용했을 때, 의치 변연부에서 나타나는 공극에 의한 문제점을 많이 경험하게 된다. 그래서 변연 공극을 최대한 줄일 수 있는 방법을 연구하여야 하고 특히 최종 과정인 마무리와 연마시의 변연 공극의 양상에 대한 평가가 이루어져야 한다. 본 연구에서는 실리콘 계열의 연성 이장재인 $Molloplast-B^{(R)}$를 적용하였을 때, 의치와 연성 의치 이장재의 접합부에서 나타나는 공극의 양을 측정하고 연마 방법, 연마 방향이 변연 공극에 미치는 영향에 대하여 알아보고자 하였다. 마무리 방법과 연마 방법, 방향에 따라 군 분류를 하였고, 시편의 일관성과 정확성을 위해 금속 틀을 방전 가공하여 제작하였고, 제조사의 지시에 따라 총 50개의 시편을 제작하였다. 공극의 양은 120배 확대의 입체 광학 현미경상에서 가장 큰 값을 가지는 부위를 측정하였고, 모든 측정치는 통계적 분석, 평가 하였다. 실험 결과, 각 분류에 따른 공극을 비교 했을 때, $Molloplast^{(R)}$-Cutter로 마무리 한 후 pumice와 tin oxide를 순행하여 연마를 한 경우가 가장 크게 나타났고, FSQ-cross cut bur를 이용하여 마무리만 한 것이 가장 적게 나타났다. 또한 연마를 할수록 공극의 양이 증가되는 양상을 나타내었다. 방향에 따라서는 통계적 유의성은 나타나지 않았으나 레진에서 연성 이장재 방향으로 시행하였을 때가 더 적은 값을 나타내는 경향을 보였다. 이상의 결과로 보아 삭제력이 우수한 버일수록 레진과 연성 이장재의 접합부에서 나타나는 공극이 커짐을 알 수 있었고, 또한 연마를 시행 할수록 공극의 양이 유의성 있는 차이를 나타내었다. 접합부에서의 공극을 줄일 수 있는 마무리와 연마 방법에 대한 더 많은 연구가 이루어져야 하고 부가적으로 최종 연마가 끝나고 공극을 막아 줄 수 있는 재료에 대한 연구가 필요한 것으로 사료된다.
