Objective This study investigated the wear resistance of injection-molded thermoplastic denture base resins using nanoindentation instrument. Materials and methods Six injection-molded thermoplastic denture base resins (two polyamides, two polyesters, one polycarbonate, one polymethylmethacrylate [PMMA]) and a PMMA conventional heat-polymerized denture-based polymer control were tested. Elastic...

An immediate denture is a temporary or permanent removable fabricated in the presence of natural teeth. Patients diagnosed with periodontitis are usually indicated for this type dentures. Fabrication according to specific protocol can enhance functional, phonetic, and aesthetic rehabilitation immediately after tooth extraction. Laboratory procedures have few specificities comparison conventiona...

Crossliked plastic denture teeth have been used clinicaly in order to improve the poor wear resistance of conventional acrylic denture teeth. We suggest that highly crosslinked denture teeth are possibly disadvantaged compared with conventional ones, when considering the adhesion to denture base and impact resistance. The purpose of this study is to evaluate the impact resistance of crosslinked...

AIM The purpose of this study was to evaluate the effect of different denture cleansers on the color stability, surface hardness, and roughness of different denture base resins. MATERIALS AND METHODS Three denture base resin materials (conventional heat cure resin, high impact resin, and polyamide denture base resin) were immersed for 180 days in commercially available two denture cleansers (...

One of the most important consideration for patients in dental treatment is esthetics. It presents a great challenge when teeth (particularly anterior teeth) have to be immediately replaced following removal structure. Immediate denture answer restore esthetics and functional (mastication, speech deglutition) purpose. A 48-year-old male patient came Department Prosthodontic Clinic, Universitas ...
