- Abstract
Aim: The aim of the study is to observe the dimensional changes of self-cure acrylic when subjected to alcohol, Listerine, and chlorhexidine. Objective: The objective of the research is to know the changes that can occur in denture given to patients who use the above-mentioned solutions regularly. Background: The resin does not require an external agent for polymerization, and hence it is known as a self-cure. The basis of self-cure is that it is strong and durable. It is one of the most commonly used materials in prosthodontics. Materials and Methods: A total of 15 cubes of acrylic processed with self-cure are immersed in alcohol, Listerine, and chlorhexidine and left for 12 h. Dimensions of the cube ps are measured before and after immersing in the solutions. Reason: This research is done for better success rates and patient acceptability for prosthodontics treatments. Conclusion: The study shows that there are changes in the blocks when subjected to these liquids.
