Polymethylmethacrylate is the material of choice for prosthetic bases. Depending on the type of polymerization, acrylic resins may present some mechanical weaknesses that may lead to the failure of a prosthesis. The microhardness and flexural strength of a dental material determine its applicability. The objective of the present investigation was t...
Introduction: Denture base acrylic resins release residual monomers as a result of an incomplete polymerization [1 Gautam, R, Singh RD, Sharma VP, et al. Biocompatibility of polymethylmethacrylate resins used in dentistry. Journal of Biomedical Materials Research - Part B Applied Biomaterials. 2012;100 B(5):1444–1450.[Crossref] , [Google Scholar]]....
Introduction: Polymethylmethacrylate resins are essential materials in the Oral Rehabilitation field. However, their use is being called into question once they can cause adverse reactions in the adjacent tissues [1 Goiato MC, Freitas E, Dos Santos D, et al. Acrylic resin cytotoxicity for denture base – Literature review. Adv Clin Exp Med. 2015;24:...
Background: Conventional acrylic resin is prone to microbial colonization and may cause inflammatory and allergic response. Aims: This study aims to research the initial microbial adhesion in situ and tissue response to an acrylic resin used in prosthodontics. Materials and Methods: Disks of a commercial acrylic resin were prepared and included on...
Objectives: To research differences in initial microbial adhesion by simulating in situ biofilm formation on an acrylic resin used in removable prosthodontics by smokers and non-smokers. Methods: Disks of polymethilmethacrilate acrylic resin of equal calibrated dimensions were prepared and polished according to the norms of its clinical use and wer...
Denture stomatitis is a disease prevalent amongst denture wearers and the elderly. This review aims to provide dentists with the latest scientific information about this disease. A gold standard treatment for this condition is still lacking, and further research is needed.

Denture stomatitis nowadays is still a prevalent disease amongst patients wearing removable dentures, irrespective of age. In order to set out clinical approaches to manage this disease there is a need to know exactly which factors are important in the settlement of this condition. Pubmed/MEDLINE, Google Scholar and Cochrane Library searches were c...

... Vickers microhardness measurement of acrylic samples using a microhardness tester (made by SCTMC Company, Model HV-1000Z) in the Central Laboratory of Tabriz University was performed under a force of 30 grams at 30 seconds according to ISO 20759-1: 2013 [22]. Each sample was subjected to a hardness test 3 times (once in the center and twice in the sides), and we reported an average of 3 tests. ...
... Both factors have been observed to play an important role in microbial diversity over time. (25,26) Thus, the proper management of removable prostheses to reduce bacterial colonization should be a major focus of future research. ...
