Improvement of mechanical properties for PMMA based Denture material
Abstract: Denture material properties can be improved by various fiber addition. The most often used denture materials are polymethyl methacrylate (PMMA) resins; nevertheless, they do not have a high flexural strength (FS). This investigation compared the mechanical characteristics of an injection-molded polyamide. Deflex, an additional injection-molded PMMA base material, SRIvocap, and a typical compression-molded PMMA (Meliodent). The flexural qualities (deflection, bending strength, and bending modulus) of 100 different denture base materials …

Evaluate and Compare the Effect of Water of Different Hardness Levels on the Surface Irregularity in 3 Different Heat-Polymerized Denture Base Resins
Abstract: This study aimed to evaluate and compare the effect of water with varying hardness levels on the surface irregularity of three different heat-polymerized denture base resins. The hardness of water used in dental applications has been shown to influence the properties of dental materials, including denture base resins. In this study, three commonly used heat-polymerized denture base resins were subjected to immersion in water with different hardness levels. The surface …
