FLOREZ-CALAO, Juan-Fernando; SUAREZ-FAJARDO, Ingrid-Giovana y CRUZ-GONZALEZ, Alberto-Carlos. Impact resistance of two conventional and two high impact acrylics for dentures. CES odontol. [online]. 2021, vol.34, n.1, pp.44-51. Epub 16-Feb-2022. ISSN 0120-971X. https://doi.org/10.21615/cesodon.34.1.5.
Introduction and objective:
acrylic resins are the ideal materials for the elaboration of dentures and removable prostheses, although the falls or blows make them susceptible to fractures. Knowing the properties and limitations of acrylics in our environment, allows us to carry out treatments with the best materials. The objective of this study was to compare the impact resistance of two conventional and two high impact acrylics for prosthetic bases.
Materials and methods:
40 bars were made in base-wax and processed in muffles according to specifications of four trademarks of acrylics (n=10), Lucitone199®, Masterdent acrylic resin®, Veracril alto impacto® and convencional®. The impact resistance was evaluated by the Charpy test (Machine ITC-XJU-22), with a pendulum mass of 0.237 Kg and an impact force of 1J. One-way ANOVA and tukey test were performed for statistical analysis was performed.
Results:
the impact resistance values were 16.5, 10.8, 9.3 and 5.9 KJ / m2 for Lucitone199®, Veracril alto impacto®, Veracril convencional® and Masterdent acrylic resin®.
Conclusions:
with the limitations of this investigation, high impact acrylics can be considered as a more viable alternative for the elaboration of dentures compared to conventional acrylics, in order to reduce the risk of fractures due to accidents or sudden impact loads.
