title: Denture labels affixed with light-cured versus self-cured resin.
abstract: The use of a light-cured acrylic resin was compared to self-cured resin for sealing personal identification labels in existing removable dental prostheses. The light-cured material rated better consistently than the self-cured resin in lack of stain or yellowing, legibility of print, lack of porosity, marginal seal, and surface finish. Another valuable feature of this system was the reduced time required for completion of the procedure.
