The assessment of denture plaque can provide valuable information regarding the status of denture hygiene. Denture hygiene is strongly influenced by the patient's socioeconomic condition and the duration of denture use. The commonly used material is the heat cure acrylic resin, which can naturally increase the surface roughness if used for a long time. To determine the differences in the formation of plaque in the denture intaglio in denture use duration. As many as 14 (fourteen) respondents as research subjects used the heat-cured acrylic resin denture and came to one of the Primary clinics in Banda Aceh between April-May 2020 (During the COVID-19 Pandemic). These subjects were divided into three groups, namely 1 year, 1-3 years, and ≥ three years. In this study, the assessment of denture plaque score was conducted by the visual plaque assessment method. The colored area was the intaglio denture area, which was left for 5 minutes. The images obtained were converted into the Tarbet index (Score 1-4). The study showed that each group's denture plaque scores had different denture plaque scores. The highest denture plaque scores were found in dentures used 1-3 years. Compared to 1 year and 3 years of use. The duration of use can affect the formation of denture plaque

Abstract Aim Controversy continues regarding the biocompatibility of denture base materials. One method to evaluate the biocompatibility of materials is in an animal study. Using dogs as subjects, the purpose of this study was to evaluate the vestibular tissue reaction to cobalt chromium (Co-Cr), heat cure acrylic resin, and acrylic resin mixed with aluminum oxide (Al2O3) compared with a control group using the histopathologic method. Methods and Materials Twelve disk shape samples (2 mm × 8 mm) in four groups of Co-Cr, acrylic resin, acrylic resin mixed with a 20% weight ratio of Al2O3, and a control group (Teflon) were fabricated. In one stage surgery two samples of each material (8 samples) was implanted in the buccal vestibule of each dog (n=6), subcutaneously. At 45 and 90-day intervals, half of the samples were excised along with peripheral tissue to assess the presence of inflammation by grading on a scale from 0 to 3 and the presence of a fibrotic capsule using histological observations. Data were analyzed using the Kruskal-Wallis, Mann-Whitney, and Tau b Kendal tests. Results Tissue reaction between Co-Cr and the control group was significant (P=0.02), but it was not significant between other groups. There was no significant difference between the 45 and 90-day postinsertion samples. The formation of fibrotic capsule groups was significant (P=0.01). It was significant between the Co-Cr and acrylic resin groups (P=0.01) and the acrylic resin and control groups (P=0.01). Conclusion The Co-Cr group was more toxic than the other groups. The inflammation increased during time. The inflammation in two acrylic groups was greater than the control and less than the Co-Cr group. The formation of fibrotic capsule, except in the acrylic resin with Al2O3 group, increased over time. Clinical Significance Co-Cr alloys are toxic and can produce damage to living tissue. Heat cure acrylic resin materials have less toxicity, and their use is safer than Co-Cr alloys. Citation Ebadian B, Razavi M, Soleimanpour S, Mosharraf R.

Adequate retention is a basic requirement for the acceptance of complete denture. The aim of this study was to evaluate the retention quality of fluid denture base materials and compare it with conventional acrylic denture base materials Method: Sixteen edentulous male patients with an age 45-60 years participated in the study. For each patient two denture bases were constructed, one of them made from fluid denture base materials and the other made from hot acrylic denture base materials. A specially designed strain gauge measuring device was used to measure the force required to dislodge the two dentures from basal seats. Six measurements of retention of newly inserted denture base were recorded for each patient (three for maxillary acrylic denture base and three for maxillary fluid denture base). Results: The results of the retention test showed that the fluid denture base materials required more force in order to dislodge denture than the heat cure denture base materials, which means a significant improvement in retention quality obtained by fluid denture base materials. Conclusions: It has appeared that the fluid acrylic denture base materials produce denture base material with excellent retentive efficiency to the underlying tissue when compared to conventional denture base materials.

Summary Background/Aim: Relining is defined as the procedure used to resurface the tissue side of a denture with new base material, thus producing an accurate adaptation is provided at the denture foundation area. During mastication, relined dentures have to withstand masticatory forces to prevent fracture. The aim of this study was to evaluate the flexural strength of acrylic resin denture base relined with different methods and materials. Material and Methods: Fourteen experimental groups and one control group were determined to consider different reline materials and processing methods. Acrylic resin specimens were prepared with the dimensions of 65× 10× 1.5 mm and reline materials (1.5 mm thickness) were placed on acrylic resins. Reline material was not used in control group specimens. Flexural strength values of relined and control specimens were measured with three-point bending test at a speed of 5 mm/min. Data were analyzed with using one way Anova and Student t tests. Results: The highest flexural strength values were shown in control group (86.51±1.08 MPa). There were significant differences among relined specimens (p< 0.05). For the relined specimens, the highest flexural strength values were found in the relined specimens with denture base material (77.90±1.93 MPa), and the lowest values were found in relined with autopolymerize acrylic material (59.81±1.50 MPa). Conclusions: Relining of the heat cure denture base material significantly decreases the flexural strength for all processing methods and materials.

Although, the PMMA have good advantages made it appropriate to denture base applications. But its low impact and fracture strength represent the main drawbacks of it.so many studies had been done in order to overcome these problems. In this study Pistachio Shell powder was added in different weight fractions of about (3, 6, 9 and 12 wt. %) and different average particle sizes of about (53µm, 106µm, 150µm and212µm) to (heat-cure) PMMA that is popularly utilize in denture base applications and study the Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy (FTIR) and Differential Scanning Calorimeter (DSC) behavior of this bio composite. The results were as the following: the FTIR results demonstrated that there are no new peaks appeared after the reinforcing by Pistachio Shell powder. Also there was no shifting in any of these peaks. While the DSC test showed that the glass transition temperature (Tg) increased as the particle size of Pistachio Shell powder increased. The highest value of Tg (126.9?) was obtained for composite specimen reinforced with 12% of Pistachio Shell powder with average particle size of about (212µm).

Heat cure denture base is the most commonly used material for fabrication of removable prosthesis to the present day. However difficulties persist in fabrication of satisfactory prosthesis due to poor mechanical properties which have resulted in frequent repairs in dental practice. The present study is aimed to investigate the effect of Zirconium oxide nanoparticles (ZrO2NPs) on flexural strength and porosity of denture base and its correlation. X-ray diffraction (XRD) was used to check the purity of NPs. NPs was dispersed at 1%, 3% and 5% by weight to the monomer of methyl methacrylate with aid of probe sonicator. In addition, Scanning Electron Microscope (SEM) was used to observe agglomeration of particles within the acrylic. The results revealed significant flexural strength difference (p<0.05) between each concentration of ZrO2NPs. The analysis showed 17% and 11% reduction for 1% and 3% ZrO2NPs respectively while 5% caused a drastic reduction by 32% in reference to control. In regards to porosity, the results present no statistically significant difference among the concentrations in contrast to control. Pearson correlation showed strong and a negative relation (-0.83) between flexural strength and porosity. However, the results was not statistically significant (p=0.369). Within the limitations of this study, it can be concluded that the addition of ZrO2 caused reduction in flexural strength for all concentrations added. While it caused non-significant effect on porosity of acrylic. suitable additive to enhance the properties of PMMA.
