Troubles of Heating CD: Processing Errors

Troubles of heating CD outlines common issues that can occur when processing dentures and potential causes. Issues include porosity in the denture base from rapid heating, tooth movement from improper investing materials or closure, base or tooth breakage during deflasking from careless removal or hammer use, fractured or cracked teeth from improper packing or pressure, crazing from stresses or solvent contamination, bleaching from residual solvents or undercuring, color streaks from improper mixing or contamination, sandy appearance from delayed curing or monomer evaporation, stone adhering from insufficient separating medium or contamination, and spaces between teeth and base from delayed curing or separating medium on teeth.

Troubles of heating CD:

Processing errors
:Porosity-1
• a)Too rapid rise of temperature in the
initial stage of curing
• b)Thick denture bases heated too rapidly.
• c)Lack of dough in the mold at the time of
final closure.
• d)Lack of adequate pressure during
polymerization.
• e)Packing the resin in a sticky rather than
doughy stage.

2-Tooth movements

a) The use of plaster instead of stone


in investing the trial denture .
b) Incomplete closure of the flask .
c) Excessive and rapid pressure
during trial closure .
d) Over packing of the mold with
resin material before final closure .
.
Denture base and teeth . 3
breakage during
Deflasking
• a) Careless flasking( knife blade
hit teeth when removing stone
cap) .
• b) Hammer used to tap denture
out of the flask .
Fractured or cracked . 4
: teeth

• causes :
• a) Improper Deflasking( use hammer)
• b) Packing the dough in the rubbery
stage the material too stiff .
• c) Excessive and rapid application of
pressure during trial packing .
• d) Setting the teeth directly on the
stone cast .
Crazing of acrylic resin . 5
: base or acrylic teeth

• crazing of resin consists of the formation of small


cracks which may vary in size from microscopic
dimension to the visible size it indicates beginning
of fracture . cross linking of resin reduces this fault
considerably .
• causes ;
• a) Stresses induced by the contraction of the resin
around the tooth by rapid cooling .
• b) he use of solvents to remove wax from the mold
before packing .
• C) Application of separating medium just before
packing
Bleaching of acrylic . 6
resin

causes :
a) Contamination of the acrylic resin with
some acrylic solvents .
b) under cured acrylic resin due to incorrect
time and temperature of curing .
c) incorporation of the tin foil substitute
with the acrylic resin .
d) incorporation of the jelly like material of
wet cellophane into the resin .
color streaks in the . 7
:resin material
• causes:
• a) improper mixing of the
monomer and polymer .
• b) contamination of the resin mix
with dirty hands or instrument .
• c) adding resin material in layers
during trial packing .
Sandy appearance of . 8
: the resin material

• Causes ;
• a) Too much delay in curing after
packing [ more than 1\2 hour ] .
• b) Evaporation of the monomer
liquid.
• c) Insufficient monomer in the mix
(packing of a dry mix) .
Stone adhere to the . 9
:surface of the denture
• Causes ;
• a) Insufficient separating medium
on the mold before packing .
• b) The application of separating
medium contaminated with stone .
• c) Incomplete elimination of wax
during washing out thus rendering
separating medium ineffective .
Space between the . 10
:teeth and resin base

• Causes :
• a) Delayed curing leaving the flask
without curing for a long time .
• b) The application of separating
medium on the teeth
