Hardness of denture reline materials polymerized with different techniques.
Two kinds of hard type self-cured denture reline materials were polymerized using three different techniques: (1) on a surface of glass plate, (2) under water, (3) under water with some hardening agent. Hardness of specimens were measured longitudinally during three weeks periods of storage in water at 37 degrees C. Results of our study indicated that the specimen cured with the special hardening agent showed the higher hardness than those cured only in water. Most of the hardness changes took place during first three days of the experiment period.
