Abstract in English
Adapting of the complete denture will ensure its retention. Poly(methyl
methacrylate) is considered to be the best material to manufacture denture bases. However it incurs
changes in dimension and volumetric contraction which affects the adaption of dentures and therefore the
retention. The purpose of this study was to compare two types of stone casts in their effect on accuracy of
fit of complete denture base.
