Long term soft liners are made of one of two materials: Silicone and Acrylic.

Silicone materials can be either curing or curing. Acrylic long term soft liners are cured - cold cured acrylics are only suitable for very term linings and tissue .

Cold curing silicone materials contain filler. As the level of filler rises, so does the level of and worsening of dimensional stability. The material is liable to and detach from the denture base. The resistance are poor.

Heat curing silicone materials have lower levels of water sorption. stability is therefore higher and the to the denture base is better.

Long term soft acrylic linings contain either polymethacrylate or polymethacrylate polymers and are heavily p to create softness.

Which material is better at absorbing shock?

1

True or false: acrylic soft lining materials harden and become less elastic with time

1

True or false: silicone soft lining materials become harder with time due to leakage of plasticiser

1

True or false: it is better to process soft lining materials and the denture base at the same time to ensure better bond strength
