Abstract :

Background: Acrylic resin were first used in dentistry for denture bases. The basic knowledge of acrylic resin curing method should be known by the dentist. Because the improved performance of acrylic resin depends on the curing method. Purpose: This study was aimed to find the most effective curing method to produce the highest transverse strength of acrylic resin. Method: The tested master model material was embedded in denture flask made of brass, which was divided into three sample groups based on three different curing methods: conventional Japan Industrial Standard (JIS), 24 hour boiling water, and microwave. Each of those sample groups was divided into six samples and tested for its transverse strength. Result: The result of this study showed that conventional JIS method has the highest mean and deviation scores (60.8467 MPa+2.0971) compared to those of 24 hour boiling water method (55.7650 MPa+2.0939) and of microwave method (56.5983 MPa+1.4493). Conclusion: The highest transversal strength is derived from the conventional JIS curing method.
