Debonding rates of 164 resin-bonded prostheses (RBP) placed from 1974 to 1985 were examined at recall. The yearly debond rates were calculated, the cumulative probability of failure was determined for the debonded RBPs, and Weibull distribution parameters were determined. For perforated prostheses, there was a high initial debond rate, followed by slowly decreasing rates for about 5 years. Increasing rates after 5 years indicated the beginning of wearout. The Weibull parameters for the wearout period ofthe perforated prostheses were: characteristic life = 128 (SE = 2) months, modulus = 1.27 (0.06), and threshold parameter = 0. Data were available for etched frameworks for 6 years and showed decreasing debond rates during this time. The characteristic life of the etched bridges was 318 (84) months. The cumulative failure data were also modeled with a cubic polynomial distribution that resulted in a U-shaped hazard function.
