A development of visible light cured FRP plate denture

A FRP denture base, which was made from visible light curing prepreg, was developed. The visible light cured FRP denture base had advantages with respect to an adequate strength, bonding strength of acrylic base resin, esthetic properties and ease to manipulation. The matrix resin of Bis-GMA/UDMA/3 G at 48/48/4 was determined from the results of the bending test and manipulation processing. The sateen weave's glasscloth was used for the reinforcement of the prepreg. The adaptability of the FRP plate denture was better than that of the resin base denture constructed with microwave heating.
