One of the primary advantages of acrylic resin teeth is their ability to bond chemically to the denture base resins. Fracture od acrylic resin teeth from a maxillary denture, however, is not uncommon. Bonding failures have been attributed to faulty boil-out procedures that fail to eliminate all traces of wax from the ridge lap surfaces of the teeth and to contamination of the ridge lap surface by careless application of tinfoil substitute. Attempts to increase the strength of the bond between acrylic resin teeth and heat-cured denture base resin include grinding the glossy ridge lap surface (in fluid system), painting the ridgelap surface of the teeth with monomer-polymer solution, and cutting retention grooves in the ridge lap surface of the teeth. This latter method has been tested by applying a tensile force in a labial direction to the incisal part of the lingual surface of the acrylic resin teeth. A progressive shear compressive load was applied at an angle to the lingual surface of acrylic resin teeth bonded to denture base acrylic resin. No statistically singificant advantage was derived by preparing retention grooves of different shapes in the ridgelap surface of the denture teeth.

Acrylic resin has some disadvantages in its physical properties such as a low surface hardness, being easily abraded as well as low degree of impact resistance. To overcome these disavantages, Perma Cure System was introduced in 1981, in which photo polymerizing monomers coated on acrylic resin surface were polymerized. In this study, to observe the effect of Perma Cure System on physical properties of treated surface of different types of acrylic resin, abrasion resistance, surface hardness and surface roughness of 4 different types of resin (Premium, Ortho-jet acrylic, Quick resin, Thermo jel) were tested before and after coating treatment. The conclusions arised from this study are as follows; 1. In all types of resin, the abrasion resistance of coated specimen was higher than that of uncoated specimen, and there was difference in amount of abrasion among the types of coated resin. 2. In all types of resin, the surface hardness of coated specimen was higher than that of uncoated specimen, and there was no difference in surface hardness among the types of coated resin. 3. In all types of resin, surface roughness of coated specimen was lower than that of uncoated specimen, and was different according to the degree of surface roughness before coating treatment in same sort of resin specimen.

Laser cleaning have been found to be a useful cleaning tool to remove contaminants without inducing damage to the substrate and making secondary pollutant. In this study, the effect of Nd:YAG laser cleaning system, emitting at 1064 nm and 532 nm, on acrylic resin applied onto copper coupons and pieces of bronze was investigated. The samples after laser cleaning tests were examined using microscopy, FT-IR, SEM-EDS. As a result, the acrylic resin could be removed from most of the samples at low laser energy density. Laser wavelength 532 nm was more effective than 1064 nm because of using lower laser energy density, which could reduce heat damage to substrates. Although the acrylic resin was easily removed, it revealed melted surfaces and removed bronze patina which must remain. The problems should be solved by future studies using different laser system or laser wavelengths.

The purpose of this study was to develop a new way of delivery system of chlorhexidine using self-curing acrylic resin. Different preparations of chlorhexidine, such as chlorhexidine varnish($Chlorzoin^{(R)}$) and chlorhexidine diacetate crystalline, were mixed into self-curing acrylic resin with different methods. Every resin plate was made and was immersed in 100ml of distilled water individually, and kept in an incubator at $37^{\circ}C$. Solution(0.8ml) was collected from the each container at every 24 hours, and the amount of released chlorhexidine in the solution was measured in an ultraviolet spectrophotometer at 255nm. Flexural strength of all of the resin plates in the Experiment 2-A and 2-B were measured using Instron at the end of the experimental periods. The results were as follows: 1. It was found that chlorhexidine was released from the experimental groups in the Experiment 1, 2-A, and 2-B. And the release of chlorhexidine from all of the experimental groups showed a pattern of sustained-release preparation. 2. It seemed likely that a condition of "dryness" reduced a release of chlorhexidine from the chlorhexidine varnish. 3. It may be stated that a method of "chlorhexidine diacetate mix" with the polymer be more efficient than a method of "Chlorzoin mix" with the monomer. 4. Although it was evident that a flexural strength of the acrylic resin plates be reduced by a mix of either Chlorzoin or chlorhexidine diacetate crystalline, it seemed likely that the resin plates except Group 4 and 5 in the Experiment 2-B may be usable in the clinical situation.

For more than two decades, many investigators have tried a variety of methods for delivering antimicrobial agents to the oral cavity with the objective of eliminating mutans streptococci. In the belief that the effectiveness of chemotherapy might be improved by a more effective delivery system, the intention of the present study was to exploit a new drug delivery system delivering chlorhexidine to the oral cavity. The vehicle delivering chlorhexidine tested in this study was self-curing acrylic resin(polymethyl methacrylate). The powder of the acrylic resin was polymerized with the 5 different liquid preparations, in which $Chlorzoin^{(R)}$ was mixed with five different monomer/Chlorzoin ratios immediately prior to the polymerization, in a stainless steel mold ($40mm{\times}40mm{\times}2mm$). A total of 50 cured resin specimens were divided into 5 groups according to the different monomer preparations. Every specimen was soaked in an airtight container filled with distilled water (100 ml) and then kept in an incubator at $37^{\circ}C$. The solutions (0.8 ml) were collected from the container at every 24 hours, and the amount of released chlorhexidine in the solutions was measured in an ultraviolet spectrophotometer at 250nm. The container was refilled with distilled water every after measurement. This procedure was repeated for 14 days. It was found that chlorhexidine was continuously released from all of the 50 specimens during the experimental period. And it was noted that the pattern of chlorhexidine release was a type of sustained-release preparation, that is, the amount of the released chlorhexidine at the first day in all 5 groups was high (p<0.0001), and then the release was decreased during the rest of the experimental period (p<0.001).

Statements of problem: The fracture of acrylic resin dentures remains an unsolved problem. Therefore, many investigations have been performed and various approaches to strengthening acrylic resin, for example, the reinforcement of heat-cured acrylic resin using glass fibers, have been suggested over the years. Silane is important for bonding between glass fiber and resin. Purpose: The aim of the present study was to investigate the effect of various silane on the strength of PMMA resin and roughness of resin-glass fiber complex after abrasion test. Material and methods: 3mm glass fiber (Chopped strand, Hankuk fiber Co., Milyang, Korea) was treated with 3 kinds of silane (MPS, EPS, APS) (Sila-ace, Chisso chemical, Tokyo, Japan) and mixed with PMMA resin(Vertex RS, Vertex Dental B.V., Zeist, Netherlands). Transverse strength and Young's modulus was measured using Instron (Instron model 4466, Instron, Massachusetts, USA). After abrasion test (The 858 Mini Bionix II Test System, MTS System Co., Minnesota, USA) surface roughness was evaluated using tester (Form Talysurf plus, Taylor Hopson Ltd., Leicester England). Examination of scanning electron microscope was also performed. Results: Within this study, the following conclusions were drawn. 1. Surface treatment of glass fiber with MPS and APS increased transverse strength of PMMA resin complex, but surface treatment with EPS decreased transverse strength of PMMA resin complex (p<0.05). 2. Silane treated glass fiber increased Young's modulus of PMMA resin complex compared to desized glass fiber (p<0.05). 3. Roughness increased after abrasion test in case of PMMA resin reinforced with desized glass fiber (p<0.05). 4. Roughness change was not observed after abrasion test in case of PMMA resin reinforced with silane treated glass fiber (p>0.05).

The mainly used polymeric material for the denture is PMMA because of its cost and easiness to handle. So it was widely used material among dentists for past decades. But the acrylic-based denture materials have several common weak points such as shrinkage after curing and lack of strength. In order to solve these problems, we adapted one of hybrid system using acrylic polymer and vinyloligosilsesquioxane(POSS). POSS, which is a well known expandable monomer during polymerization process, may eventually suppress volumetric shrinkage. And the hybrid system makes it possible for the polymer to be stable in various severe conditions. Eight different kinds of samples were designed and synthesized. Each samples were characterized with dynamic mechanical analyser(DMA) to confirm their thermodynamic properties, fractured to analyze the cross-sectional morphology of the samples. And elongation, flexural and impact tests were also executed to evaluate the mechanical properties of the samples. From the results, hybrid composites had well defined crosslinked network structure compared to the widely used denture materials, and the mechanical strength improved without changing any surface condition as increment with POSS ratio in hybrid system. Fractured morphology showed homogeneous surfaces in spite of mutli component system, therefore we can conclude that the adoption of the POSS brought the reinforcement of the denture resin.

O/W emulsions were prepared by adding water to the solution containing amphiphilic resin and the mixed emulsifier of cetyl alcohol polyoxyethylene(20) sorbitan monooleate. Phase behavoir of these emulsions was studied at various HLB(Hydrophilic Lipophilic Balance) values and temperatures. The polar oil emulsion containing the amphiphilic resin showed improved phase stability at various temperatures. Model compounds which contain one of the functional groups in the amphiphilic resin were used in the polar oil phase in order to study the effect of interaction between the functional group and the emulsifier on the phase stability of emulsion. These model compound emulsions showed the phase stability order of poly(acrylic acid)

The purpose of this study was to assess the effect of 1) the diameter(0.7,1.0,1.2mm) and number(1,2,3) of commonly available orthodontic metal wires embedded in self-curing orthodontic acrylic resin specimens($64{\times}10{\times}3mm$) and 2) the use of chemical adhesive system(Silicoater, Metalprimer) to prevent slipping at the interface between the resin and the metal wire on reinforcement by using three-point bending test. From this study, the following results were obtained. 1. No statistically significant difference was found among the transverse strengths for the control without reinforcement, one 0.7mm wire, two 0.7mm wires, three 0.7mm wires, and one 1.0mm wire groups(P>.05). 2. In the groups with 1.0 or 1.2mm wires, the transverse strength increased in proportion to the increase of number of wires(P<.05). 3. In the groups with 0.7 or 1.0mm wires, neither of Silicoater and Netalprimer increased the transverse strength significantly(P>.05). 4. No statistically significant difference was found in transverse strength between Silicoater groups and Metalprimer groups with same diameter of wires(P.>05). From these result, it is concluded that diameter of wires is a primary considering factor to reinforce the acrylic resin effectively and, when this requirement is satisfied, increased number of wires or chemical adhesive systems can be expected to produce the additional reinforcing effect.
