This study evaluated the effect of two commonly used methods of processing permanent soft liner on tensile bond strength between denture base and soft liner. Silicone based soft liner was used in this study. Ten heat cure dumbbell shaped specimens along with soft liner were processed together. Another ten heat cure dumbbell shaped specimens were fabricated and later relined with soft liner. All the specimens were subjected to tensile bond strength test. Specimens relined directly with soft liner at the time of processing the denture base resin showed significantly higher bond strength.
