Bonding of different soft lining materials has been widely investigated, but there is little work on the effect of using different denture base resins. This study investigates the bonding of Molloplast-B (a heat-cured, silicone soft lining material) and five commercial acrylic denture base materials of different types (Pacton, Lucitone, Meliodent, Ivocap and Compresin). The lining was processed against all the resins cured and Pacton, Lucitone and Meliodent uncured. In the cured specimens, Lucitone, Meliodent and Compresin demonstrated cohesive failure, whereas Pacton and Ivocap demonstrated part-adhesive and part-cohesive failure. All three sets of uncured specimens demonstrated adhesive failure. It was concluded that pre-curing, roughening and treating with Primo adhesive gives a better bond.
