Hydrophobic interaction in Candida albicans and Candida tropicalis adherence to various denture base resin materials.

The effects of hydrophobicities of substrate surfaces on microbial adherence were examined by using Candida albicans and Candida tropicalis and 21 denture base resin materials. With increasing surface free energy of resin plates, increasing adherence of C. albicans and decreasing adherence of C. tropicalis were observed. The surface free energy of C. albicans is higher than that of all resin material surfaces, and C. tropicalis has surface free energy lower than that of all materials used. In calculation of the changes of free energy accompanying the adherence, the higher adherence tendency was accompanied by a lower value for the free energy change in both species. From a different standpoint, the closer the surface free energy of the substrate surface and the microorganism, the higher was the probability of adherence.

In vitro studies into the release of chlorhexidine acetate, prednisolone sodium phosphate, and prednisolone alcohol from cold cure denture base acrylic.

An investigation was carried out into the release of chlorhexidine acetate, prednisolone sodium phosphate, and prednisolone alcohol from a cold cured acrylic denture base material. The drugs were added at 10% w/w with the powder phase of the material. Water, at the concentrations of 10%, 20%, and 30% of the monomer phase of the material was added to chlorhexidine-containing and chlorhexidine-free samples. Spectrophotometric and bioassay measurements of the release of chlorhexidine demonstrated protracted delivery to 140 days. The daily release rate was increased by the addition of water to the material and at 30% water incorporation the release was greater and increased up to 190 days. The release pattern of prednisolone sodium phosphate was similar to that of chlorhexidine without the addition of water. Prednisolone alcohol was released for a much shorter period and at lower levels. Scanning electron microscopic examination of the polished, etched, and fractured surfaces of the material demonstrated that chlorhexidine acetate and prednisolone sodium phosphate were incorporated into the interbead matrix areas of the material. The irregularities in the material increased with the addition of water. Prednisolone alcohol produced minimal changes in the specimens except after soaking in water for 140 days when numerous small defects could be seen in the matrix zones at high magnification. The use of materials such as water to increase porosity appears a simple method of improving the release pattern of drugs from acrylic. However, the strength of the resulting material would require support from an existing intraoral prosthesis or appliance.

Comparison of vertical movement occurring during loading of distal-extension removable partial denture bases made by three impression techniques.

Although the altered-cast impression technique attains stability and controlled tissue support for distal-extension removable partial dentures, the procedure is time-consuming and technique-sensitive. This study clinically compared the vertical displacement of distal-extension removable partial dentures made from different impression techniques. The impressions studied were the altered-cast impression, an impression made from a border-molded custom tray, and a stock tray irreversible hydrocolloid impression that served as a control. A post hoc analysis, using a Tukey Q-test, exhibited significance (p less than 0.01) between the two impression techniques after intraoral loading was performed. Although statistically significant, the 0.19 mm difference between the impression techniques may or may not be clinically relevant. Additional research is required in this area.

[The causes of longitudinal fracture of the upper complete denture base].

Laying the strain gauge on the design areas of palatal base and frenum labiorum of complete dentures and simulating the different shapes of notch of frenums by the photoelastic mould. The test of the base condition under static and dynamic load by electrical measurement method was carried out. The longitudinal breaking line on the front part of the palatal base was first observed. The causes of breaking may be due to: the weak effect of notch of frenum labiorum; stress concentration on the front part of the base; material fatigue caused by the repeated alternate force and the strength of base material reduced by unsuitable processing.
