Chemical cure resin materials are generally used in the repair of dentures. Different repair resins used may yield different results. The bond strength of three autopolymerizing resins were evaluated using a torsional test method. The results showed that Palapress and Caulk resins had a higher repair strength than Rapid Repair resin.
