Color stability is one of the denture base material requirement. Nowadays, nylon thermoplastic resin and heat-cured acrylic resin which is used as denture base materials can be changed in colour. One of a colour-changed factor is the tea drinking habit. The objective of this research was to compare the colour stability between nylon thermoplastic resin and heat-cured acrylic resin after soaked in tea. Materials used for the research were nylon thermoplastic resin from Valplast and heat-cured acrylic resin QC-20, with a sample size of 64x(10±0.03)x(2.5±0.03)mm. The sample would be assessed of colour stability after the denture base soaked in tea for 7 days. The colour measurement of each sample was done by spectrophotometer equipment (CIE lab system). Data gathered later on statistically processed with ANOVA testing. The result showed that the comparison ratio of colour stability between nylon thermoplastic resin and heat-cured acrylic resin after soaked in tea was 1.9886:1.1152. The conclusion was that colour stability in the nylon thermoplastic resin was lower than heat-cured acrylic resin after soaked in tea. This result was due to a polymer chain of nylon thermoplastic which was lower than heat-cured acrylic resin and its porosity which was higher, so tea easily soaked into the materials.

Among the types of thermoplastic nylon that are often used as denture bases are polyamide 6 and microcrystalline polyamide. Microcrystalline polyamide is the new generation of polyamides created to overcome the weaknesses of previous polyamides. The purpose of this study was to analyse the effect of tea on thermoplastic nylon denture wearers on water absorption and colour stability. Methods: This research was experimental laboratory research on 40 samples with a diameter of 15 mm ± 1 mm, and a thickness of 0.5 mm ± 0.1 mm (ISO 4049), divided into four groups (Group A was the polyamide 6; Group B was the microcrystalline polyamide on the water absorption; Group C was polyamide 6; and Group D was microcrystalline polyamide on the colour stability). All samples were immersed in the tea solutions for 7 days. Data were analysed with independent t-test. The microscopic structure was analysed using the scanning electron microscope (SEM). Results: The results showed significant differences between group A, B, C, and D. The independent t-test also showed significant differences between group A, B, C, and D (p = 0.000; p < 0.05). Conclusion: There is an effect of tea on the thermoplastic nylon denture wearers. Microcrystalline polyamides have less water absorption and better colour stability than Polyamide 6.Keywords:  Polyamide 6, thermoplastic nylon, microcrystalline polyamide, water absorption, colour stability, SEM.

AbstractIn past, the materials used for denture bases were vulcanite, celluloid & phenol formaldehyde. Acrylic resins were introduced to dentistry in 1930's. There are certain limitations of acrylics like residual monomer allergy, poor mechanical strength, low fatigue strength, brittle on impact, poor conductors of heat, low hardness, high coefficient of thermal expansion, thermal shrinkage, poor color stability of self-cured resins, porosity, crazing, warpage, poor adhesion to metal and porcelain and requirement of mechanical retention. But still they are the most widely used denture base materials till date. But recently there has been much advancement in the field of denture base resins to overcome their drawbacks and to obtain an ideal denture base material. This article reviews the various advancements in the field of denture base resins.

Exposure of denture base acrylic resins to the oral environment and storage media for extended periods of time results in colour change due to changes in the properties of the material. The purpose of this in vitro study was to assess the colour stability of high-impact heat-polymerized denture base acrylic resin (HI PMMA) impregnated with zirconia nanoparticles after storage in distilled water (DW) and denture cleaners such as Steradent (STD) and Milton (MIL) for 180 days. Ninety specimens of PMMA + Zirconia nanocomposite with varying nanoparticle concentrations (1.5 wt.%, 3.0 wt.%, 5.0 wt.%, 7.0 wt.% and 10 wt.%) were prepared with a diameter and thickness of 25 ± 1.0 mm × 2 ± 0.1 mm and divided into six groups, while each group was further divided into three subgroups: storage in DW (control), STD and MIL. Colour changes were measured with a Minolta Chroma Meter (Minolta, Osaka, Japan), and assessed using the CIE L*a*b* colorimetric system. Data were statistically analysed for colour change with Friedman’s Two-way and Kruskal-Wallis tests at a pre-set alpha value level of 0.05. The colour change (ΔΕ) exhibiting significant differences were found among all groups immersed in denture cleaners, and all values increased with time. According to the National Bureau of Standards, the control group displayed the lowest colour change value (ΔΕ = 1.22), and the highest value was for 10 wt.% ZrO2 while stored in MIL (ΔΕ = 6.07). The values of colour change for storage in water ranged from 0.49 (control) to 1.82 (10 wt.% ZrO2). The colour change value for the composite group containing 3 wt.% zirconia was clinically acceptable. However, high concentrations of denture cleaners should be avoided, and the shortest cleaning time is recommended to improve the clinical life of the nanocomposite denture base.

The surface hardness level of a denture base material is related to the resistance to abrasion, scratch, polishing and water sorption. Nowadays, thermoplastic nylon resins and heat-cured acrylic resins are used as denture base materials. Denture base must be immersed in water to maintain its humidity. The objective of this research was to compare the surface hardness level between thermoplastic nylon resins and heat-cured acrylic resins. Materials used for the research were thermoplastic nylon resins from Valplast and heat-cured acrylic resins QC-20, with a sample size of 64x(10±0.03)x(2.5±0.03) mm. Surface hardness is measured with Vickers Microhardness Tester and the data were analyzed by ANOVA method. The results showed that comparison ratio of surface hardness level between thermoplastic nylon resins and heat-cured acrylic resins before immersion is 3.2:7.3 VHN respectively, while the comparison value of both resins after immersion is 2.8:6.6 VHN. In conclusion, the surface hardness level of thermoplastic nylon resins is lower compared to heat-cured acrylic resins. This result is due to thermoplastic nylon resin’s higher porosity, its different polymer chains, and the plasticizers effect after immersion in water.

This work aims to investigate the tensile and compression strengths of heat- cured acrylic resin denture base material by adding styrene-butadiene (S- B) to polymethyl methacrylate (PMMA). The most well- known issue in prosthodontic practice is fracture of a denture base. All samples were a blend of (90%, 80%) PMMA and (10%, 20%) S- B powder melted in Oxolane (Tetra hydro furan). These samples were chopped down into specimens of dimensions 100x10x2.5mm to carry out the requirements of tensile tests. The compression strength test specimens were shaped into a cylinder with dimensions of 12.7mm in diameter and 20mm in length. The experimental results show a significant increase in both tensile and compression strengths when compared to control (standard) results for the preparation material.

Denture stomatitis is a multifactorial pathological condition of the oral mucosa that affects up to 72% of denture wearers. It is commonly seen on the palatal mucosa and characterized by erythema on the oral mucosa that are in contact with the denture surface. The aim of this study was to incorporate 2-methacryloyloxyethyl phosphorylcholine (MPC) and dimethylaminohexadecyl methacrylate (DMAHDM) into a high impact polymethylmethacrylate heat-cured denture base acrylic resin as a potential treatment for denture stomatitis. We used a comparative study design to examine the effect of incorporating MPC as a protein repellent agent and DMAHDM as an antifungal agent to prevent the adherence of Candida albicans to the denture base material. The dual incorporation of MPC and DMAHDM reduced C. albicans biofilm colony-forming unit by two orders of magnitude when compared to the control group devoid of the bioactive agents. Although the addition of MPC and DMAHDM alone or in combination significantly reduced the flexural strength of the material, they showed reduced roughness values when compared to control groups. This new denture acrylic resin provides the benefit of enhancing C. albicans biofilm elimination through dual mechanisms of action, which could potentially reduce the prevalence of denture stomatitis.

ABSTRACT Background Thermoplastic resin polymers are widely used in medicine due to their biostability and hypoallergenic properties, making them a possible alternative to poly-methylmethacrylate (PMMA). The current research examined the microstructure of a rapid injection molding system thermoplastic resin for construction of flexible denture compared with that of heatcured PMMA. Materials and methods A total of 40 disk-shaped specimens (25 mm in diameter and 3 mm in thickness) were prepared and divided into two groups of 20 disks each (group I samples were of thermoplastic acrylic resin while group II was heat-cured PMMA resin). Results In group I, thermogravimetric analyzer showed that increasing the temperature up to 169°C resulted in about 1.3% of the material loss, and after that the material remains thermally stable up to 200°C. Group II showed 2.24% weight loss at 171°C, and further weight loss (12.025%) was observed on heating to 230°C. Fourier transform infrared (FTIR) spectrophotometer analysis in the range of 400–4000 cm-1 detected the presence of an amine group (N-H) in group I samples and the presence of methylene group attached to inorganic Si as reinforcement filler (Si-CH3). Conclusion Thermoplastic resin displayed excellent thermal stability and the absence of residual monomer within the polymerized material, suggesting its suitability for the fabrication dentures.
