Vuksic J, Pilipovic A, Poklepovic Pericic T, Kranjcic J. The Influence of Contemporary Denture Base Fabrication Methods on Residual Monomer Content, Flexural Strength and Microhardness. MATERIALS (BASEL, SWITZERLAND) 2024; 17:1052. [PMID: 38473524 DOI: 10.3390/ma17051052] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 01/29/2024] [Revised: 02/19/2024] [Accepted: 02/22/2024] [Indexed: 03/14/2024]
Abstract
(1) Background: Digital technologies are available for denture base fabrication, but there is a lack of scientific data on the mechanical and chemical properties of the materials produced in this way. Therefore, the aim of this study was to investigate the residual monomer content, flexural strength and microhardness of denture base materials as well as correlations between investigated parameters. (2) Methods: Seven denture base materials were used: one conventional heat cured polymethyl methacrylate, one polyamide, three subtractive manufactured materials and two additive manufactured materials. High-performance liquid chromatography was used to determine residual monomer content and the test was carried out in accordance with the specification ISO No. 20795-1:2013. Flexural strength was also determined according to the specification ISO No. 20795-1:2013. The Vickers method was used to investigate microhardness. A one-way ANOVA with a Bonferroni post-hoc test was used for the statistical analysis. The Pearson correlation test was used for the correlation analysis. (3) Results: There was a statistically significant difference between the values of residual monomer content of the different denture base materials (p < 0.05). Anaxdent pink blank showed the highest value of 3.2% mass fraction, while Polident pink CAD-CAM showed the lowest value of 0.05% mass fraction. The difference between the flexural strength values of the different denture base materials was statistically significant (p < 0.05), with values ranging from 62.57 megapascals (MPa) to 103.33 MPa. The difference between the microhardness values for the different denture base materials was statistically significant (p < 0.05), and the values obtained ranged from 10.61 to 22.86 Vickers hardness number (VHN). A correlation was found between some results for the material properties investigated (p < 0.05). (4) Conclusions: The selection of contemporary digital denture base manufacturing techniques may affect residual monomer content, flexural strength and microhardness but is not the only criterion for achieving favourable properties.

Abstract
An ideal denture base must have good physical and mechanical properties, biocompatibility, and esthetic properties. Various polymeric materials have been used to construct denture bases. Polymethyl methacrylate (PMMA) is the most used biomaterial for dentures fabrication due to its favorable properties, which include ease of processing and pigmenting, sufficient mechanical properties, economy, and low toxicity. This article aimed to comprehensively review the current knowledge about denture base materials (DBMs) types, properties, modifications, applications, and construction methods. We searched for articles about denture base materials in PubMed, Scopus, and Embase. Journals covering topics including dental materials, prosthodontics, and restorative dentistry were also combed through. Denture base material variations, types, qualities, applications, and fabrication research published in English were considered. Although PMMA has several benefits and gained popularity as a denture base material, it has certain limitations and cannot be classified as an ideal biomaterial for fabricating dental prostheses. Accordingly, several studies have been performed to enhance the physical and mechanical properties of PMMA by chemical modifications and mechanical reinforcement using fibers, nanofillers, and hybrid materials. This review aimed to update the current knowledge about DBMs' types, properties, applications, and recent developments. There is a need for specific research to improve their biological properties due to patient and dental staff adverse reactions to possibly harmful substances produced during their manufacturing and use.

J Appl Oral Sci 2022; 30:e20220161. [PMID: 35894388 PMCID: PMC9311270 DOI: 10.1590/1678-7757-2022-0161] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 04/19/2022] [Accepted: 06/16/2022] [Indexed: 11/21/2022] Open
Abstract
OBJECTIVE To evaluate the amount of methyl methacrylate (MMA) released in water from heat-cured polymethyl methacrylate (PMMA) denture base materials subjected to different cooling procedures. METHODOLOGY Disk-shaped specimens (Ø:17 mm, h:2 mm) were fabricated from Paladon 65 (PA), ProBase Hot (PB), Stellon QC-20 (QC) and Vertex Rapid Simplified (VE) denture materials using five different cooling procedures (n=3/procedure): A) Bench-cooling for 10 min and then under running water for 15 min; B) Cooling in water-bath until room temperature; C) Cooling under running water for 15 min; D) Bench-cooling, and E) Bench-cooling for 30 min and under running water for 15 min. A, B, D, E procedures were proposed by the manufacturers, while the C was selected as the fastest one. Control specimens (n=3/material) were fabricated using a long polymerization cycle and bench-cooling. After deflasking, the specimens were ground, polished and stored in individual containers with 10 ml of distilled water for seven days (37oC). The amount of water-eluted MMA was measured per container using isocratic ultra-fast liquid chromatography (UFLC). Data were analyzed using Student's and Welch's t-test (α=0.05). RESULTS MMA values below the lower quantification limit (LoQ=5.9 ppm) were registered in B, C, E (PA); E (PB) and B, D, E (QC) procedures, whereas values below the detection limit (LoD=1.96 ppm) were registered in A, D (PA); A, B, C, D (PB); C, D, E (VE) and in all specimens of the control group. A, B (VE) and A, C (QC) procedures yielded values ranging from 6.4 to 13.2 ppm with insignificant differences in material and procedure factors (p>0.05). CONCLUSIONS The cooling procedures may affect the monomer elution from denture base materials. The Ε procedure may be considered a universal cooling procedure compared to the ones proposed by the manufacturers, with the lowest residual monomer elution in water.

Abstract
Background The utilization of computer-assisted designing and computer-assisted milling CAD\CAM resins in the fabrication of removable prostheses is a modern-day concept that offers many advantages over the use of the traditional polymethylmethacrylate (PMMA). Aim This study instigated some of the mechanical properties of CAD\CAM denture base resin including the amount of residual monomer. Methods This study was conducted at the Faculty of Dentistry, King Abdulaziz University from October 2016 to February 2017. A total of seventy rectangular specimens were fabricated (group A: 35 heat-cured PMMA and group B: 35 CAD/CAM pre-polymerized acrylic resin blocks). The flexural strength and surface hardness were tested while the residual monomer content at baseline, two-day and seven-day intervals was estimated using gas chromatography (GC). Means and standard deviations were determined for each group as well as independent-samples t-test and ANOVA with repeated measures for comparison between the groups and subgroups of varying time intervals. Results Heat cured PMMA (A), displayed higher flexural strength and low value flexural modulus compared to CAD/CAM acrylic resin denture base material (B). Student t-test indicated highly significant differences (p<0.001) of the flexural strength (t=37.911) and flexural modulus (t=88.559). The surface hardness of group (B) was significantly higher compared to group (A) as indicated by the t-test (t=20.430). Higher release of the monomer content was detected by GC in group (A) at different time intervals with a statistically significant difference (p<0.001) in residual monomer content. Conclusion CAD/CAM resin may be considered suitable for use in the construction of denture bases.

Abstract
The aim of this study is to determine the peak temperature of polymerization, the setting time and the release of residual monomers of a modified acrylic bone cement. Palacos®R, a commercial bone cement, is used as the main component. The cement is modified by adding short glass fibers and resorbable oligomer fillers, and an additional cross-linking monomer. The test specimens are classified according to the composition of the bone cement matrix (i.e., oligomer-filler, glass-fiber reinforcement, and/or cross-linking monomer). The exothermal characteristics during autopolymerization are analyzed using a transducer connected with a computer. The quantities of residual monomers were analyzed from different test groups using high performance liquid chromatography (HPLC). The Δ T value for the oligomer filler and the glass-fiber-containing acrylic bone cement is lower than that for the unmodified bone cement (2.1±0.8 vs. 23.5±4.2°C). The addition of a cross-linking monomer, EGDMA, shortens the setting time of the autopolymerization of the unmodified bone cement (7.1±0.9min vs. 3.3 ±0.3min). The quantity of the residual monomers released is higher in the modified bone cement than that in the unmodified cement. The cement that contains glass fibers and oligomer fillers has a considerably lower exothermal peak, whereas the total quantity of residual monomers released is increased.

Abstract
Monomer remaining in denture base acrylic can be a major problem because it may cause adverse effects on oral tissue and on the properties of the material. The purpose of this study was to compare the effect of various ultrasonic cleaner frequencies on the amount of residual monomer in acrylic resin after curing. Forty-two specimens each of Meliodent heat-polymerized acrylic resin (M) and Unifast Trad Ivory auto-polymerized acrylic resin (U) were prepared according to their manufacturer's instructions and randomly divided into seven groups: Negative control (NC); Positive control (PC); and five ultrasonic treatment groups: 28 kHz (F1), 40 kHz (F2), 60 kHz (F3) (M=10 min, U=5 min), and 28 kHz followed by 60 kHz (F4: M=5 min per frequency, U=2.5 min per frequency, and F5: M=10 min followed by 5 min per frequency, U=5 min followed by 2.5 min per frequency). Residual monomer was determined by HPLC following ISO 20795-1. The data were analyzed by One-way ANOVA and Tukey HSD. There was significantly less residual monomer in the auto-polymerized acrylic resin in all ultrasonic treatment groups and the PC group than that of the NC group (p<0.05). However, the amount of residual monomer in group F3 was significantly higher than that of the F1, F4, and PC groups (p<0.05). In contrast, ultrasonic treatment did not reduce the amount of residual monomer in heat-polymerized acrylic resin (p>0.05). The amount of residual monomer in heat-polymerized acrylic resin was significantly lower than that of auto-polymerized acrylic resin. In conclusion, ultrasonic treatment at low frequencies is recommended to reduce the residual monomer in auto-polymerized acrylic resin and this method is more practical in a clinical situation than previously recommended methods because of reduced chairside time.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE This study investigated the long-term cytotoxic response of thermoplastic polyamide and conventional polymethyle metacrylate (PMMA) denture base materials. MATERIALS AND METHODS Twenty discs were prepared for each polyamide, heat and cold cured PMMA denture base resins (totally 60) and divided into four sub-groups (n = 5). Cytotoxicity was assessed with the direct cell contact method using cell viability and neutral red (NR) uptake assay. Each sub-group was tested at initial and after being aged for 24 h, 1 week and 8 weeks with artificial saliva according to ISO 10993 standards. RESULTS There were no significantly difference among the materials and control groups after initial, 24 h and 1 week testing. In 24 h testing, only Deflex was more toxic according to the Control group (p < 0.05). After 8 weeks of aging with artificial saliva, all materials were significantly cytotoxic when compared to the control group. QC20 was more toxic than Deflex and SC Cold Cure (p < 0.05). There were significant differences between the 8 week aging group and the initial, 24 h and 1 week testing for all materials (p < 0.05). CONCLUSIONS Cytotoxicity of all tested denture base materials increased significantly after the long-term aging. Therefore, long-term aging may be useful to determine a dental material's toxicity. Polyamide denture base material had a similar toxicity profile with conventional heat- and cold-cured PMMA.

Abstract
AIM The aim of this study was to quantify and compare the amount of methyl methacrylate (MMA) monomer released from three different denture base acrylic material processed by different polymerization methods and storage conditions. MATERIALS AND METHODS Microwave-cured, conventional heat and injection-technique acrylic polymerized materials were stored in neutral (pH = 7) and acidic (pH = 4.5) artificial saliva for 24 hours at the room temperature, separately. The residual MMA content was determined by high performance liquid chromatography (HPLC). RESULTS The MMA leaching from resins showed that microwave-cured material has lower residual MMA leach compared both conventional and injection-technique on neutral saliva storage conditions. CONCLUSION The all data's exhibited higher MMA release into an acidic saliva environment than neutral artificial saliva and there were no significant differences between the materials groups on acidic saliva storage conditions. CLINICAL SIGNIFICANCE Microwave polymerization method might has some advantages on reducing release of MMA concentration and may contributory effect upon polymerization reaction on neutral pH storage condition, therefore methods of polymerization should be considered as amount of monomer release.

Abstract
AIMS To evaluate the effect of chemical disinfectant on the transverse strength of heat-polymerized acrylic resins subjected to mechanical and chemical polishing. MATERIALS AND METHODS A total of 256 rectangular specimens (65 * 10 * 3 mm) 128 per resin (Lucitone-199 and Acralyn-H) were fabricated. One side of each specimen was not polished and the other was either mechanically (n = 96) or chemically (n = 96) polished and immersed for 10, 30 and 60 minutes in 2% alkaline glutaraldehyde. Mechanically polished (n = 32) and chemically polished (n = 32) control specimens were immersed only in distilled water. The transverse strength (N/mm(2)) was tested for failure in a universal testing machine, at a crosshead speed of 5 mm/min. Data were statistically analyzed using 2-way ANOVA and Student t-test. RESULTS chemical polishing resulted in significantly lower transverse strength values than mechanical polishing. Lucitone- 199 resin demonstrated the highest overall transverse strength for the materials tested. Heat-polymerized acrylic resins either mechanically or chemically polished, did not demonstrate significant changes in transverse strength during immersion in the disinfecting solution tested, regardless of time of immersion. CONCLUSION Lucitone-199 resin demonstrated the highest overall transverse strength for the materials tested and significantly stronger than Acralyn-H with either type of polishing following immersion in 2% alkaline glutaraldehyde. CLINICAL SIGNIFICANCE There is a concern that immersion in chemical solutions often used for cleansing and disinfection of prostheses may undermine the strength and structure of denture base resins. In this study it was observed that, the transverse strength of samples of Lucitone-199 was higher than that of the samples of Acralyn-H. The chances of fracture of the denture made of Lucitone-199 are less than that of dentures made of Acralyn-H. The chemically polished dentures may be more prone to fracture than mechanically polished dentures.

Abstract
Background: The purpose of this study was to evaluate the release of chlorhexidine as an antifungal drug from doped self-cured poly (methyl methacrylate) (PMMA) acrylic resin and the effect of the drug released on the growth of Candida albicans. Methods: Release of chlorhexidine was evaluated using liquid chromatography, and the effect of the drug on the growth of C. albicans was investigated microbiologically using a “well” technique on Saboraud culture medium inoculated with a resistant strain of C. albicans. Results: Chlorhexidine leached steadily out of the acrylic resin into distilled water at mouth temperature, and the sustained drug release continued throughout the 28-day test period. The drug released also demonstrated antifungal activity against the resistant strain of C. albicans. Conclusion: The findings of this study support the use of chlorhexidine-impregnated self-cured PMMA chair-side resin as a new dosage form for the treatment of denture-induced stomatitis.

Abstract
Acrylic resin dentures may have cytotoxic effects on oral soft tissues. However, there is sparse data about the cytotoxic effect of fibre-reinforced acrylic resin denture base materials. The purpose of this in vitro study was to determine the effect of two fibre impregnation methods on the cytotoxicity of a glass and carbon fibre-reinforced heat-polymerized acrylic resin denture base material on oral epithelial cells and fibroblasts. One hundred acrylic resin discs were assigned to five experimental groups (n = 20). One of the groups did not include any fibre. Two groups consisted of silane and monomer treated glass fibres (Vetrolex) impregnated into acrylic resin (QC-20) discs. The other two groups consisted of silane and monomer treated carbon fibres (Type Tenox J, HTA). Untreated cell culture was used as positive control. The human oral epithelial cell line and buccal fibroblast cultures were exposed to test specimens. The cytotoxicity of the test materials was determined by succinic dehydrogenase activity (MTT method) after 24 and 72 h exposures. Data were analysed with a statistical software program (SPSSFW, 9.0). A one-way analysis of variance (anova) test and Bonferroni test were used for the comparisons between the groups. All statistical tests were performed at the 0.95 confidence level (P < 0.05). After 24 and 72 h incubation, cell viability percentages of all experimental groups showed significant decrease according to the positive control cell culture. Fibroblastic cell viability percentages of silane and monomer treated fibre-reinforced groups were lower than the unreinforced group. Cell viability of monomer-treated groups displayed the lowest percentages. Elapsed incubation time decreased epithelial cell viability in silane-treated groups. Fibroblastic cell viability was not influenced by elapsed time except the unreinforced group.

Abstract
Allergenic ingredients extracted from used denture base resin were quantitatively analysed using a gas chromatograph/mass spectrometer and high performance liquid chromatography. Methyl methacrylate (MMA), hydroquinone (HQ), formaldehyde (FMA), benzoyl peroxide (BPO), benzoic acid (BA) and methyl benzoate (MB) were detected in a eluate from all of the dentures, while ethyleneglycol dimethacrylate (DME) was detected in the eluate from 87 dentures in use for <15 years. MMA, HQ, FMA, BPO and MB showed a decrease in correlation to the period of denture use, but continuing to be evident even after 29 years of use. The MMA showed the highest level of elution and a relatively moderate decrease over time. The elution of BA, on the contrary, showed an increase with the period of denture use up to about 10 years and subsequently reached a plateau. Our results indicate that purported allergens exist in the resin base and can be eluted into the oral cavity, even in patients using an old denture for a period of nearly 30 years.

Abstract
This study compared the influence of different polymerization methods (heat, auto-, and microwave energy), different curing processes (in the case of heat- and autopolymerized specimens), and length of storage of the polymerized specimens in distilled water at 37 degrees C on the residual methyl methacrylate (MMA) content in dental acrylic resin specimens. Residual MMA of 120 resin specimens were measured using high-performance liquid chromatography. For the heat-polymerized resins, the lowest residual MMA content was obtained when they were given a long-term terminal boil and then stored in the distilled water for at least 1 day. For the autopolymerized resins, the lowest residual MMA content was obtained when they were additionally cured in water at 60 degrees C and then stored in the distilled water at least 1 day. For the microwave-polymerized resins, the lowest residual MMA content was obtained when they were stored in the distilled water at least 1 month. The lowest overall residual MMA content was obtained from heat-polymerized specimens that were given a long-term terminal boil cure and then stored in the distilled water at least 1 day. Different polymerization methods and curing processes have different effects on residual MMA content. It is thus shown that storing a dental acrylic resin specimen in distilled water at 37 degrees C is a simple but effective method of reducing its residual MMA content.

Abstract
This study investigated the effect of water storage on residual methyl methacrylate (MMA) content of continuous E-glass fiber (Wetrotex International) reinforced denture base polymers. Heat-polymerization (short- and long-term boiling and conventional curing cycle using Meliodent), autopolymerization (processed in air at room temperature and in water at 60 degrees C with the use of Meliodent Rapid Repair), and microwave-polymerization (3 min at 500 W with the use of Acron MC) were employed. The residual MMA contents of 120 specimens were analyzed by high-performance liquid chromatography at deflasking (control) and after water (37 degrees C) storage of 1 day, 1 week, and 1 month. Bonferroni's pairwise comparison test was used for statistical analysis. Significant reduction were determined only in the long-term terminal boiled heat-polymerized test group at the end of 1 day (p < 0.01), 1 week (p < 0.05) and also 1 month of water storage (p < 0.01). Significant reduction in autopolymerized test groups started even after 1 week of water storage (p < 0.05). Microwave-polymerized test groups did not show a significant residual MMA reduction in all time intervals (p > 0.05). The polymerization methods and cycles applied to the glass fiber reinforced denture base polymers influence both the content and the reduction of residual MMA after water storage.

Abstract
STATEMENT OF PROBLEM Microwave postpolymerization has been suggested as a method to improve the mechanical strength of repaired denture base materials. However, the effect of microwave heating on the flexural strength of the autopolymerizing denture reline resins has not been investigated. PURPOSE This study analyzed the effect of microwave postpolymerization on the flexural strength of 4 autopolymerizing reline resins (Duraliner II, Kooliner, Ufi Gel Hard, and Tokuso Rebase Fast) and 1 heat-polymerized resin (Lucitone 550). MATERIAL AND METHODS For each material, 80 specimens (64 x 10 x 3.3 mm) were polymerized according to the manufacturer's instructions and divided into 10 groups (n = 8). Control group specimens remained as processed. Before testing, the specimens were subjected to postpolymerization in a microwave oven using different power (500, 550, or 650 W) and time (3, 4, or 5 minutes) settings. Load measurements (newtons) were made at a crosshead speed of 5 mm/min using a 3-point bending device with a span of 50 mm. The flexural strength values were calculated in MPa. Data analyses included 3-way and 2-way analysis of variance and the Tukey Honestly Significant Difference test (alpha = .05). RESULTS The flexural strengths of resins Duraliner II and Kooliner were significantly increased (P = .0015 and P = .0046, respectively) with the application of microwave irradiation using different time/power combinations. The materials Lucitone 550, Tokuso Rebase Fast, and Ufi Gel Hard demonstrated no significant strength improvement compared to the corresponding control. Only after microwave postpolymerization irradiation for 3 minutes at 550 W did Lucitone 550 show significantly higher flexural strength (P =.001) than Tokuso Rebase Fast and Ufi Gel Hard relining resins. CONCLUSION Microwave postpolymerization irradiation can be an effective method for increasing the flexural strength of Duraliner II (at 650 W) and Kooliner (at 550 W and 650 W for 5 minutes).

Abstract
STATEMENT OF THE PROBLEM In selecting a disinfectant for dental prostheses, compatibility between the disinfectant and the type of denture base material must be considered to avoid adverse effects on the hardness of the acrylic resin. PURPOSE This study investigated the hardness of 2 denture base resins after disinfection and long-term water immersion. MATERIAL AND METHODS Thirty-two disk-shaped specimens (13 mm in diameter and 8 mm thick) were fabricated from each resin (Lucitone 550 and QC-20), polished, stored in water at 37 degrees C for 48 hours, and submitted to hardness tests (Vickers hardness number [VHN]) before disinfection. Disinfection methods included scrubbing with 4% chlorhexidine gluconate for 1 minute, immersion for 10 minutes in 1 of the tested disinfectant solutions (n=8) (3.78% sodium perborate, 4% chlorhexidine gluconate, or 1% sodium hypochorite), and immersion in water for 3 minutes. The disinfection procedures were repeated 4 times, and 12 hardness measurements were made on each specimen. Control specimens (not disinfected) were stored in water for 56 minutes. Hardness tests (VHN) were also performed after 15, 30, 60, 90, and 120 days of storage in water. Statistical analyses of data were conducted with a repeated measures 3-way analysis of variance (ANOVA) and Tukey post-hoc test (alpha=.05). RESULTS Mean values +/- SD for Lucitone 550 (16.52 +/- 0.94 VHN) and QC-20 (9.61 +/- 0.62 VHN) demonstrated a significant (P <.05) decrease in hardness after disinfection, regardless of material and disinfectant solutions used (Lucitone 550: 15.25 +/- 0.74; QC-20: 8.09 +/- 0.39). However, this effect was reversed after 15 days of storage in water. Both materials exhibited a continuous increase (P <.05) in hardness values for up to 60 days of water storage, after which no significant change was observed. CONCLUSION Within the limitations of this in vitro study, QC-20 and Lucitone 550 specimens exhibited significantly lower hardness values after disinfection regardless of the disinfectant solution used.

Abstract
Cytotoxic effects of resin liquids of three in situ relining dental polymers, Alike, Kooliner, and Tokuso Rebase, and their major components, methyl methacrylate (MMA), isobutyl methacrylate (IBMA), and 1,6-hexanediol dimethacrylate (1,6-HDMA) were investigated. The concentrations of major monomers in these resin liquids were determined by high-performance liquid chromatography. Cellular viability of human gingival fibroblasts (GF) and periodontal ligament (PDL) cells were evaluated by the 3-[4,5-dimethylthiazol-2-yl]-2,5 diphenyltetrazolium bromide assay. Moreover, patterns of cell death were analysed using annexin V/propidium iodide staining with flow cytometry. The results indicated that Alike liquid contained 91.3% MMA, Kooliner liquid contained 94.5% IBMA, and Tokuso Rebase liquid contained 65.8% 1,6-HDMA. All materials examined had cytotoxic effects on GF and PDL cells in dose-dependent manners. Tokuso Rebase liquid appeared to be the most cytotoxic among the various resin liquids examined. The effects of Kooliner and Tokuso Rebase liquids may have resulted from IBMA and 1,6-HDMA, respectively. Furthermore, the majority of treated cells died from necrosis; whereas a small portion of cells died from apoptosis. In conclusion, the results demonstrated that these liquid forms of dental polymers and their major monomers cause cytotoxic reactions. The direct relining procedure that cures these materials in situ should be used cautiously.

Abstract
STATEMENT OF PROBLEM Immersion in chemical solutions used for cleansing and disinfecting prostheses can decrease the strength of denture base resins, making them more prone to fracture during use. PURPOSE The purpose of this study was to assess the effect of immersion in different chemical disinfectants for varying time periods on the transverse strength of 3 mechanically or chemically polished heat-polymerized acrylic resins. MATERIAL AND METHODS A total of 630 rectangular specimens (65 x 10 x 3 mm), 210 per resin (Classico, Lucitone 550, and QC-20), were fabricated. One side of each specimen was not polished and the other was either mechanically (n=300) or chemically (n=300) polished, and immersed for 10, 20, 30, 45, or 60 minutes in either 1%, 2.5%, or 5.25% sodium hypochlorite or 2% glutaraldehyde. Mechanically polished (n=15) and chemically polished (n=15) control specimens were immersed only in distilled water. The transverse strength (N/mm 2 ) was tested for failure in a universal testing machine, at a crosshead speed of 5 mm/min. Data were statistically analyzed using 2-way ANOVA and Student t test. Multiple comparisons were performed using Tukey and Scheffe tests (alpha=.05). RESULTS There was significant difference (P < .01) between types of polishing, with chemical polishing resulting in lower transverse strength. ANOVA identified significant differences (P < .01) in strength between mechanically polished Lucitone 550 and QC-20, and among all 3 chemically polished resins. No significant differences were observed between resins submitted to both types of polishing or between different immersion periods (10 to 60 minutes), disinfectants, or interaction. CONCLUSIONS Lucitone 550 resin presented the greatest transverse strength values with both types of polishing. Among the mechanically and chemically polished specimens, transverse strength was not affected after immersion in the disinfectants for the immersion periods tested (10 to 60 minutes). Chemically polished control and experimental (immersed in all solutions) QC-20 specimens showed significant differences in transverse strength values.

Abstract
The disinfection of dental prostheses by immersion in a chemical solution should be capable of rapid inactivation of pathogenic microorganisms, without causing any adverse effect on the denture base resins. This study evaluated the effect of disinfection immersion on the transverse strength of two heat-cured resins. The denture base resins (Lucitone 550 and QC 20) were polymerized according to the manufacturers' instructions. After polymerization, the specimens were polished, and then stored in water at 37 degrees C for 50 +/- 2 h prior immersion in one of the following solutions for 10 min: 4% chlorhexidine, 1% sodium hypochlorite and 3.78% sodium perborate. The specimens were submitted to disinfection twice, simulating when dentures come from the patient and before being returned to the patient. Ten specimens were made for each group. The transverse strength was evaluated by a 3-point bend test. The flexural strength of the two denture base acrylic resins evaluated remained unaffected after immersion in the three solutions evaluated. In general, the QC 20 resin specimens exhibited lower transverse strength than the Lucitone 550 resin specimens, regardless of immersion solutions.

Abstract
As próteses muco-suportadas são consideradas facilitadoras em potencial da estomatite protética (EP), lesão comumente observada sob a base das próteses, caracterizada por aspectos eritematosos difusos ou pontilhados na mucosa de suporte. Sua etiologia é controversa, podendo estar relacionada principalmente a fatores locais. Diversos aspectos funcionais associam-se a estes fatores representados pela oclusão, dimensão vertical, retenção, estabilidade dinâmica e estática além de aspectos qualitativos relacionados às condições encontradas no desdentado. Foram levados em consideração o período de edentulismo, número e tempo de uso das próteses, uso contínuo, conservação, presença de placa e higiene bucal. Os fatores foram avaliados, visando esclarecer a possível relação dos aspectos funcionais e protéticos com a EP. Exame clínico foi realizado em 116 pacientes de ambos os sexos, desdentados bimaxilares, que utilizavam as duas próteses muco-suportadas, portadores ou não de estomatite protética (EP). Os resultados indicaram que a maioria dos pacientes examinados tinha EP frente ao menor número de pacientes sem EP, havendo nos dois grupos equivalência nos resultados da avaliação clínica e protética. Os fatores funcionais e qualitativos das próteses, avaliados isoladamente, não puderam ser considerados responsáveis pela ocorrência dessa patologia, constatando-se que um único fator protético não demonstrou, de per si, ser responsável pela presença da EP, embora possa ser um facilitador para o seu desenvolvimento.

Abstract
OBJECTIVES To determine the effects on methylmethacrylate (MMA) monomer concentration of a second heat-cure cycle introduced for the purpose of processing a denture soft-liner. METHODS Two denture-base resins (Lucitone199 and Trevalon; Dentsply International, York, PA, USA) were selected. Heat-cure cycles were S (73 degrees C/90 min + 100 degrees C/30 min); L (73 degrees C/9 h); SM (S + 100 degrees C/2 h); LM (L + 100 degrees C/2 h). Cycles SM and LM thus simulated the effect of a further, soft-liner, heat-cure cycle. Groups (n = 6) of the specimens of the denture-base were prepared in the form of thin polymer disks. Monomer was then obtained from the broken fragments of disks by acetone extraction. Concentrations of MMA monomer were determined by reversed-phase high performance liquid chromatography (HPLC). Two-way ANOVA and independent sample t-tests were used to compare the results. RESULTS The cycle S, applied to Lucitone199, gave a mean concentration of 1.95 wt% MMA (SD 0.24). The cycle L gave the highest level of residual concentration of MMA monomer in both materials. Cycles SM and LM, applied to Trevalon and Lucitone199, gave significant reductions of residual concentration of MMA monomer (p < 0.05). SIGNIFICANCE The HPLC method was suitable for determining the amount of residual monomer in the denture-base acrylic resin. A further (soft-liner) heat-cure cycle had a statistically significant effect on reducing residual monomer concentrations, and this may have an effect upon mechanical properties.

Abstract
Three heat-cured and three autopolymerized acrylic denture bases with different mixing proportions and/or processing methods were investigated for the amount of residual monomer content and methyl methacrylate (MMA) released into saliva after incubation during the first and second 24 hours after processing. A corresponding range of concentrations of MMA was also used to test for cell cytotoxicity using a culture of human oral fibroblasts. The results showed that the amount of residual monomer was dependent not only on the type of polymerization but also on the amount of liquid in the mixture ratio and the processing method. The acrylic resin that had the lowest residual monomer also released the smallest amount of MMA but resins which have higher residual monomer may not necessarily release higher amounts of MMA. MMA, tested in the same range of concentration as the MMA found leached from acrylic resin in this study, was found to be toxic in the cell culture. Therefore, it is recommended that dentists attempt to reduce the amount of leachable substances before insertion of new dentures. In addition, it is recommended that dentists advise their patients not to wear newly made dentures overnight, as this may cause mucosal irritation from the potential accumulation of leachable substances.

Abstract
The aim of this study was to determine the release of residual methyl methacrylate (MMA) into water from heat-cured and chemical-cured test specimens of continuous glass fibre-poly(methyl methacrylate) (PMMA) composite fabricated from experimental glass fibre reinforcement. The glass fibre concentration of the test specimens was 12% by weight. The residual MMA was extracted from the storage water of the test specimens (n = 5 per group) and its concentration was determined by high-performance liquid chromatography. The results revealed that release of residual MMA from heat-cured test specimens with glass fibre reinforcement was significantly higher than that from unreinforced test specimens (P = 0.003), while in chemical-cured test specimens with and without glass fibre reinforcement the amount of MMA released did not differ (P = 0.501). In general, however the test specimens made from chemical-cured PMMA released more residual MMA than specimens made from heat-cured PMMA (P < 0.001). This study suggests that the use of glass fibre reinforcement in heat-cured denture PMMA statistically increases the release of residual MMA from the material, but it is questionable whether it has clinical significance.

Abstract
The test specimens were processed by autopolymerizing poly(methylmethacrylate) (PMMA), and their surfaces were untreated, polished in a conventional manner with a rag wheel, or coated with a light-curing resin. The residual methylmethacrylate (MMA) content and its release into water from the specimens were measured with high-performance liquid chromatography. The light-curing resin coating reduced most effectively the release of residual MMA into water during a 2-day storage, but conventional polishing of the PMMA surface had a similar effect when the mean values of groups were tested by means of one-way ANOVA (p < 0.001). The residual MMA content was lowest in the test specimens coated with a light-curing resin, whereas only a slight difference was seen when the untreated and polished test specimens were compared. This study suggests that not only light-curing resin coating but also the conventional polishing of the denture PMMA reduces residual MMA release into water in vitro.

Abstract
OBJECTIVES The aim of this study was to determine the content and amount of residual monomer released from heat-cured and chemical-cured polymethyl methacrylate (PMMA) during storage in water. METHODS Residual monomer was extracted from ground PMMA with tetrahydrofuran and from the storage water with n-hexane. Samples were analyzed by using HPLC-chromatography. Duration of the storage period in water was up to 8 wk at temperatures of +22 degrees C and +37 degrees C. RESULTS Residual monomer content of chemical-cured PMMA was higher than that of heat-cured PMMA. The effect of storage temperature was significant (p<0.001). During the first day of storage at +37 degrees C, the monomer release from chemical-cured PMMA was 1906.7 ppm and from the heat-cured PMMA 34.5 ppm and that release was higher at +37 degrees C than at +22 degrees C (p<0.001). SIGNIFICANCE This study suggests that the amount of released monomer can be diminished by storing the PMMA product in water for at least 1 d before use, preferably at +37 degrees C.

Abstract
OBJECTIVES AND METHODS The curing of several commercial powder/liquid mixtures of acrylic denture base materials was carried out at different temperatures and curing times. The levels of residual monomer, tensile strength, percentage elongation before break and water absorption were measured. RESULTS AND CONCLUSION It was found that the level of residual monomer determined by gas-liquid chromatography decreased with curing time and temperature increase. At the same time, the tensile strength was improved and water absorption decreased.
