Shear bond strength of two chemically different denture base polymers to reline materials.

Purpose: This study evaluated the shear bond strengths of light-polymerized urethane dimethacrylate (Eclipse) and heat-polymerized polymethylmethacrylate (Meliodent) denture base polymers to intraoral and laboratory-processed reline materials.

Materials And Methods: Thirty disks measuring 15 mm diameter and 2 mm thick were prepared for each denture base material following the manufacturers' recommendation. They were relined with Meliodent RR, Kooliner, and Secure reline materials after 1 month of water immersion.
