This study compared the shear bond strength of Panavia EX and Comspan Opaque adhesive resins with electrolytically etched or sandblasted Rexillium III or Litecast B metals bonded to extracted teeth. An analysis of variance revealed that there is no difference in bonding strength among etched or sandblasted Rexillium III metal with either Panavia EX or Comspan Opaque resins. With Litecast B metal, sandblasting produced a greater bond strength than etching with Panavia Ex resin (38.19 MPa sandblasted; 30.53 MPa etched). Conversely, Comspan Opaque resin had a value of 30.10 MPa etched and 15.40 MPa sandblasted. The etched Rexillium III and Panavia EX resins recorded a greater bond strength (38.38 MPa) than Comspan Opaque resin (27.83 MPa) or sandblasted Rexillium III metal (Rexillium III 34.74 MPa; Comspan Opaque 20.39 MPa) and Litecast B metal (Panavia EX 38.19 MPa; Comspan Opaque 15.40 MPa). Eighty percent of the failures occurred at the cement-metal interface with both cements.
