  • Title: Evaluation of interfacial bond strengths between amalgam and composite inlay.
    Author: Abdel-Aziz AH, Alhadainy HA.
    Journal: Am J Dent; 1998 Jun; 11(3):131-3. PubMed ID: 9823075.
    Abstract:
    PURPOSE: To evaluate the interfacial bond strengths between two amalgam alloys and an inlay resin composite bonded with two different luting agents. MATERIALS AND METHODS: Inlay composites (EOS) were bonded with two different bonding systems (Geristore, All-Bond 2) to high- or low-copper amalgams (Valiant, Agestan). All tested specimens were thermocycled (100 cycles), tested for tensile bond strength and compared by ANOVA (P < 0.05). RESULTS: Bond strengths varied from 5.3 to 11.4 MPa, with Geristore bonded to high-copper amalgam providing the highest strength.
