Basic studies on visible light-curing resin for denture base. Part 8. The hardening depth of denture relining material after penetration of light through the denture base resin.
A study was performed to examine how the duration of irradiation at the time of relining with visible light-curing material influences the depth of hardening of the relining material, in relation to the thickness of the denture base placed between the denture and the relining material. It was found that for a range of denture base thickness of 1-2.5 mm, a desirable degree of hardening could be obtained using an irradiation time of 20 s for relining material with a thickness of up to 4 mm used for the basal surface.
