[QUOTE="Denturepropgh, post: 310438, member: 5620"] Mostly mechanically, but I use a bit of superglue as well. The way I do it is remove good bit of nylon from the intaglio and buccal so that you can almost see through the nylon. I feather my prep on the buccal into the bulk of the nylon. Then I take a #2 round bur and cut some divergent holes into the thicker nylon on the buccal. The area that I cut really thin, I take my #2 (Sometimes #1) and drill retention through that area as well. On the intaglio, I do the same divergent retention that I did on the buccal. Then I brush on a thin layer of superglue just on the retentive holes area. I let that dry. Then I reactivate it with my monomer when I add my Versacryl or whatever repair material you want to use. I know I might catch some heat for the superglue part, but it is seriously a very small amount, completely covered by acrylic. I find that it really enhances the bond to the nylon. I almost didn't want to write that I use superglue, but yeah that's how I get it done. I suppose I could omit it, and only rely on the mechanical retention. This was a technique that was passed down to me from my old boss, so don't kill the messenger! But yeah, the repair turns out VERY nice, you wouldn't be able to tell I even added to it. [/QUOTE]
