Abstract:
The microwave processing procedure has been shown to be an efficient and accurate method of polymerizing poly(methyl methacrylate) resin for the fabrication of dentures. This article describes procedures to expand the uses of the microwave technique. With standard laboratory procedures, the microwave technique can improve and simplify denture relines, repairs, and rebasing of partial dentures.
