Effect of Different Denture Base Materials and Changed Mouth Temperature on Dimensional Stability of Complete Dentures
Table 2
The dimensional changes (mean and standard deviation) of the three denture base materials over time.
| Base material | Time | After 4 months | After 8 months | After 12 months | Mean | SD | Mean | SD | Mean | SD |
| Acrylic resin fabricated by conventional technique | 1.52 | 0.014 | 1.56 | 0.018 | 1.59 | 0.02 | Acrylic resin fabricated by injection moulding technique | 1.58 | 0.019 | 1.6 | 0.022 | 1.63 | 0.027 | Cobalt chrome metallic | 1.5 | 0.01 | 1.5 | 0.01 | 1.5 | 0.01 |
