Evolution of Denture Base Materials from Past to New Era
Journal Title: IOSR Journal of Dental and Medical Sciences (IOSR-JDMS) - Year 2018, Vol 17, Issue 11
Abstract
Computer-aided technology is an emerging method for fabricating complete dentures. Consolidated information about historical background, current status, and scope for the future is lacking. The purpose of this literature review was to analyze the existing literature on denture base materials for fabricating complete dentures and provide the reader with a historical background, current status, and future perspectives on the emerging technology. The review of different denture base materials provides a clear picture about the various developments that have taken place in this field. The polymers, especially acrylic resins after entering this field for more than 70 years seem to be undergoing constant change and are the materials of choice
