RESUMO

The purpose of this work was the evaluation of flexural strength and quantity of superficial residual monomer in acrylic resin for complete denture. To perform both analyses it was developed specimens with a dimension of 2.5mm x 10mm x 65mm. The inclusion process was standardized by the use of plastic flasks reinforced with fiberglass. Seven groups were constituted in accordance with the type of resin polymerization process: Ac (Acron-MC) and Vw (Vipi-Wave) activated by microwave energy; Lt (Lucitone 550 – control group) and Vc (Vipi-Cril), conventional water bath curing cycles of heat activated acrylic resin; Qc (QC-20), fast cycle thermal activation; and two groups of self cured resin (Vipi-Flash), processed in two distinguished conditions: ambient temperature (Vf1) and additional heating in water bath (Vf2). The results have shown statistical significant differences. The Ac group had the highest mean to flexural resistance and the least level of released monomer in comparison with others resins. The Qc and Vf1 groups had the worst results for both tests. The initial conclusions showed a cause-effect relation between higher levels of residual monomer and lower flexural strength to this group. Additionally, it was verified that the immersion for 30 minutes of self cured resin in heated water gave an improvement of material quality to evaluated characteristics.
