Abstract
This study evaluated the influence of varying the cement thickness upo n the tensile strength of nickel-chromium specimen cylinders cemented with Panavia Ex or Panavia 21 resin cements. A decrease in mean tensil e strength of the resin-nickel-chromium alloy composite structure was recorded with an increasing cement thickness for both resin cements. P anavia 21 exhibited a significantly greater mean tensile strength than Panavia Ex at all cement thicknesses tested (P<.01).
