Probably not the best idea.B I am a dentist, and most dental types
ofB adhesives are designed in a way that they interact on a mechanical and/or
chemical level with the enamel crystalline structure and/or the underlying
dentin with a possible sylane coupler needed.B When bonding to a metallic,
ceramic, or plastic surfaces, most bonding agents need special surface
treatments that usually involve a 35 - 40% hydrofluoric acid gel in
combination with microabrasion, and even then, research consistently
demonstrates decreased bonding strengths.B As far as using dental
instruments, both hand and rotatory, they can work great when needed
especially for detailed restoration of small parts.B
So:
Dental materials for intra-oral useB = good.B
Dental materials forB automotive use= not so good.B B
Automotive materials for automotive use= good.
Automotive materials for intra-oral use= probable law suit.

Subject: [Healeys] dentist epoxy for car restoration
I was sitting in the Dentist chair getting a crown replaced, and I was amazed
at the epoxy tools and grinders that were being used. B I will bet that epoxy
might be useful in fixing plastic components or other broken parts. B Has
anyone tried this?
