Abstract
Aim: The purpose of this vitro study was to comparatively evaluate the flexural strength of repaired denture base resin using different surface treated reinforcement materials.
Materials and Methods: According to ADA specification No. 12, typical heat polymerized acrylic resin specimens were created, and various repairs were made to them. Autopolymerizing resin was used for repair. The flexural strength was evaluated using the INSTRON universal testing equipment on a total of 90 samples (with 15 samples in each group).
Result: In this study the highest value of flexural strength was obtained for group in which the reinforcement was done with surface treated half round wires that were sandblasted, etched followed by application of alloy primer.
Conclusion : Specimens repaired with reinforcement increases flexural strength. Reinforcement with silanized woven roving e glass fibers showed significant increase in flexural strength compared to unreinforced specimens. There was no statistical difference between the samples repaired with sandblasted wires and etched wires group.
