About denture curing units
A denture curing unit polymerises the acrylic resin once it is in the mould; denture acrylics come in two types, self-cure and heat-cure. A review of the literature notes that the processing technique has the main impact on the properties of the finished denture.
Denture processing is the means by which denture base material is polymerised into the form of a denture. Firing is the process of porcelain fusion, used in dentistry to produce porcelain restorations.
The FDA describes dental porcelain as a powder heated to a high temperature in an oven to produce a hard prosthesis with a glass-like finish.
How presses, curing units, furnaces and formers differ
- Flask & Hydraulic Presses — Holds the mould and presses the resin into it.
- Denture Curing Units — Polymerises the resin once it is in the mould.
- Furnace Units — Heats ceramics to firing temperature; wax elimination, the removal of wax from a mould, is also usually done by heat.
- Furnace Parts — The replaceable parts of a furnace, such as the muffle.
- Curing Lights & Parts — Polymerises resin with light of a set wavelength range.
- Vacuum Formers & Injectors — Shapes a softened sheet over a cast, or injects material into a closed mould, in place of packing a flask.
- General Repair & Replacement Parts — Burner parts, a curing unit spigot, a halogen bulb and press parts.
What to look at when choosing
Processing method: an injection method was developed to deal with the shrinkage of heat-cured acrylic in compression moulding.
Temperature: ISO 13078 exists because a furnace has to be calibrated; its method covers 600 to 1,050 degrees Celsius.
Cleaning between cases: the CDC notes that pressure pots and water baths are particularly susceptible to contamination and should be cleaned and disinfected between patients.
