title: Soft lining materials in prosthetic dentistry: a review.
abstract: Although soft lining materials are widely used in prosthetic dentistry, their properties are far from ideal. This paper presents a review of these materials, including their historical development, clinical indications, ideal properties, and limitations. Examples of the three basic types are given together with their typical compositions. It is evident that further research and development is necessary to achieve a material with optimum properties.
