“…Recently, various chemically accelerated and light‐activated polymers have been developed for a hard reline resin that exhibits less tissue irrigation during polymerization. Many investigators examined the flexural strength of denture base polymers and reline polymers ( Hargreaves, 1983; Reitz, Sanders & Levin, 1985; Montes‐G & Draughn, 1986; Wyatt, Harrop & MacEntee, 1986; Bunch, Johnson & Brudvik, 1987; Shlosberg et al ., 1989 ; Hayakawa et al ., 1990 ; Iwahori, 1992), bonding of reline polymer to the denture base polymer ( Arena, Evans & Hilton, 1993; Olvera & de Rijk, 1994; Suzuki et al ., 1994 ; Yasukawa, 1995) water absorption and color change of the new hard reline polymer ( Hayakawa et al ., 1990 ; Arima, Murata & Hamada, 1995). Arima et al (1995) reported the flexural strength of six auto‐polymerizing reline polymers, and they demonstrated that the flexural strength of the resins ranged from 21 to 56 MPa and were lower than those of heat‐cure denture base polymers.…”
