| Outline of Final Research Achievements |
This research aimed to evaluate the application of high-pressure polymerization to CAD/CAM denture. This study objectives were especially focused on the mechanical properties of denture base polymerized under high-pressure. A heat-curing denture base resin and auto-curing denture base were polymerized under high-pressure up to 980 MPa by means of an isostatic pressurization machine to make specimens, and the specimens were subjected to a three-point bending test. The molecular weight of the PMMA was analyzed using the high-speed liquid chromatography system. Increased ductility without fracture was shown in the specimens subjected to high pressure, while most of the control specimens fractured. There were certain amounts of higher molecular weight polymers in the high pressure specimens than were present in the controls. The result suggests a potential application of the high-pressure polymerization to the development of PMMA-based denture resin with improved fracture resistance.
