A Pilot study on professional cleansing protocols for PMMA resins produced by CAD/CAM and 3D printing technologies: effects on surface roughness and color stability
This research aims to evaluate the effects of different cleansing protocols on the properties of PMMA resins used for dentures.
Conducted a pilot study on PMMA resins produced by CAD/CAM and 3D printing technologies.
Evaluated surface roughness and color stability after applying various cleansing protocols.
Assessed long-term aesthetic and functional integrity through comparative analysis.
Cleansing protocols significantly reduced surface roughness in PMMA resins.
Enhanced color stability was observed in cleansed dentures over time.
Patient satisfaction and oral health improvements were implied.
Abstract
The proposed cleansing protocols help preserve the long-term aesthetic and functional integrity of dentures, enhancing patient satisfaction and oral health.
