Abstract

Objective: The widespread use of denture cleaners has led to concerns regarding their effects on the transverse strength and color stability of heat-cured acrylic resin dentures. This study aimed to evaluate the impact of commercial and household denture cleaners on these two properties.


Methods: Eighty samples of heat-cured acrylic resin (2.5×10×64 mm) were randomly divided into four subgroups (N = 10) and immersed in distilled water (control), Professional® tablets, 1% sodium hypochlorite, and 1% vinegar solutions. The color components of the samples were measured using a spectrophotometer before and after immersion for 7 days, 14 hours, and 30 minutes (T1) and 12 days, 16 hours, and 10 minutes (T2). A three-point bending test was also performed.


Results: The maximum and minimum transverse strengths at T1 were observed in 1% sodium hypochlorite solution and distilled water, respectively, while the control group and 1% sodium hypochlorite had the highest and lowest strengths at T2. The control and 1% vinegar groups exhibited the lowest and highest color changes at T1 and T2, respectively, while the Professional® tablet and 1% sodium hypochlorite had the lowest and highest color changes.


Conclusion: The use of Professional® denture cleaners is recommended as it has the least detrimental effect on the transverse strength and color stability of heat-cured acrylic resin dentures. This finding can be useful for patients and clinicians in selecting appropriate denture-cleaning solutions.
