Background: One of the most argued topic in the field of fixed prosthodontics regarding support of fixed partial (FPDs) is the connection between implant and natural tooth. The present study was conducted to compare two luting cements for implant restoration. Materials & Methods: The present in vitro study was conducted in the department of Prosthodontics. Two different implant cements such as Implant Cement (ILC) (a methacrylic‑based urethane resin cement and Premier® Implant Cement TM (PIC) with Temp-Bond™ NE a temporary luting cement (TB) was selected. Results: In group I, mean tensile bond strength with ILC cement was 0.231 MPa, for PIC was 0.735 MPa and for TB was 0.682 MPa. The difference was significant (P< 0.05). In group II, mean tensile bond strength with ILC cement was 0.341 MPa, for PIC was 0.726 MPa and for TB was 0.690 MPa. The difference was significant (P< 0.05). Conclusion: Authors found that non-eugenol temporary resin cement may be considered as a better choice for cementation of implant prosthesis. Key words: Luting, Non-eugenol temporary resin, Tensile bond strength
