Physical Properties Of Relining Denture Base Resins With Different Polymerizing Methods / 대한치과보철학회지

ABSTRACT

This study would like to measure and compare water sorption and solubility of acrylic resins, with 3 different polymerizing methods, and tensile strength between denture base resin and relining resins. For this experiment, 3 different acrylic resins were used; heat polymerizing resin Vertex (Dentmex, Zeist,Holland), autopolymerizing resin Tokuso Rebase (Tokuyama Corp, Tokyo, Japan), and light curing resin Mild Rebaron LC (GC Corp, Tokyo, Japan) The results were as follows; 1. Tokuso Rebase showed the lowest water sorption, followed by Mild Rebaron LC and Vertex. Among resins, there were some signigicant differences (P0.05). About 50% of Rebaron LC showed cohesive fracture. 4. Tensile strength has more decreased after thermocycling than before, but there was no statistical difference (P>0.05).
