M. Franchi et al., ADHESION OF METHACRYLATE-BASED COMPOSITE-MATERIALS TO BONE - A SHEAR-BAND STRENGTH AND SCANNING ELECTRON-MICROSCOPY STUDY, Journal of materials science. Materials in medicine, 6(4), 1995, pp. 187-191
The aim of the present study was an analysis of the adhesion of compos
ite materials to fresh bovine bone tissue. The analysis was carried ou
t by evaluating shear bond strength and scanning electron microscopy (
SEM) results. All specimens showed a good composite-bone adaptation wi
th strong binding between methacrylate-based materials and bovine bone
. These composites could be used in an array of surgical fields in add
ition to fresh autogenous grafts.
