Abstract: Objective: To explore whether the adhesive properties between composite resin and polymethyl methacrylate (PMMA)resin teeth can be used to reshape the surface of artificial teeth. Methods: A total of 320 PMMA-based resin teeth specimens were prepared, which underwent grinding and cleaning. Half of the specimens had their surfaces treated with 50μm Al2O3 particle sandblasting for 20 seconds. The specimens after grinding and sandblasting were bonded directly to a PMMA self-curing resin material, serving as the control group (Group A). The other specimens were bonded to composite resin materials using three different resin adhesives (Single Bond Universal, Clearfil SE ONE, and Palfique Universal Bond), forming three experimental groups (Groups B, C, and D). Each group of bonded specimens was divided into two subgroups (n=20), which underwent either 0 or 10,000 thermal cycles before measuring their shear bond strength. Statistical analysis was performed using multifactor analysis of variance and LSD-t tests. Results: Sandblasting significantly increased the initial bond strength in all groups; however, its effect diminished after thermal cycling. After thermal cycling, the bond strength of Group A [(12.12±2.95) MPa] was significantly higher than those of Groups B, C, and D. The sandblasted Group B [(8.48±2.34) MPa] and sandblasted Group D [(8.90±2.51) MPa] both exhibited significantly higher bond strength compared to the sandblasted Group C [(4.64±2.09) MPa]. Conclusion: Selecting the appropriate resin bonding system can help composite resin materials reshape the surface of sandblasted PMMA artificial resin teeth.
