Influence of three chemical disinfection protocols on the mechanical, physical, and cytotoxic properties of additively manufactured complete denture bases with and without soft reline resin: An in vitro study

Key Points

• The aim is to investigate how different chemical disinfection protocols affect the properties of denture bases made through additive manufacturing.
• Conducted an in vitro study comparing three disinfection protocols.
• Evaluated mechanical, physical, and cytotoxic effects on denture bases.
• Included both additively manufactured denture bases with and without soft reline resin.
• Glutaraldehyde treatment best preserved mechanical integrity among tested protocols.
• Other disinfection methods showed less effectiveness in maintaining denture properties.
