ResumoTraditional compression molding and heat-activation methods for polymerization of denture base resins have been widely used. Studies have shown that stresses introduced during processing can lead to the distortion of denture bases. Chemical-, microwave-, and light-energy activation, and various combinations (including polymerization under pressure) have been offered as alternative ways to make dentures. These methods have been attempts to improve the accuracy of fit of the dentures, but sometimes the goal has also been to provide a more convenient laboratory technique. This extensive review covers studies that have investigated the accuracy of acrylic and other types of resins for making dentures using the known range of fabrication methods.
