Denture identification--a simple approach.
In order to find a denture identification method that could be rapidly applied to completed dentures, a variety of spirit pens and commercial and experimental sealants were investigated. The pens were generally rapidly removed by one or more abrasive, denture cleansing, antiseptic or mouthwash agent; the sealants exhibited greater longevity. An experimental sealant (acrylic polymer dissolved in chloroform) was found to be cheap, readily prepared, easily applied, very resistant to abrasion, unaffected by immersion denture cleansers, antiseptics and mouthwashes, to produce no more crazing on dentures than the other sealants investigated, and not to affect the transverse strength of acrylic resin.
