| Description |
Background: The PMMA polymer denture base materials are low mechanical properties, adaptation of the denture base to underlying tissue is important for retention and stability of denture. The aim of the study was toevaluate the effect of mixtureZrO2-Al2O3 nanoparticles on impact strength, transverse strength, hardness, roughness, denture base adaptation of heat cured acrylic resin denture base material. Materials and methods: One hundred (100) specimens were prepared, the specimens were divided into five groups (20 specimens to each) according to the test type, each group was subdivided in to two subgroups (control and experimental) each subgroup consist of 10 specimens, the experimental group included mixture of 2% (ZrO2-Al2O3ratio2:1) by weight. Theimpact strength was measured by Charpy's impact testing machine, the transverse strength was measured by Instron testing machine while the hardness was measured byshore D durometer and roughness was measured by Profilometer. Denture base adaptation was measured by digital microscope and evaluated by computerized tomography (CT). Results: Highly significant increaseofimpact and transverse strength, non-significant increase ofhardness, significant increase ofroughness andreduction of denture base adaptation (measured at 3 point A, B and C) occurred in experimental groupwhen compared to control group. CT evaluation, gap between the denture base and master cast (control and experimental groups) increased from the anterior to posterior side of palate and from the alveolar ridge to the mid palatal line. Conclusion: The polymer nanocomposites had mechanical properties higher than neat PMMA at same time less denture base adaptation. |
