Evaluation of Flexural Strength of Different Denture Base Materials Reinforced with Different Nanoparticles

ConclusionsThe mechanical properties of PMMA can be improved by the addition of nanoparticles to PMMA; however, the flexural strength values of PMMA decrease with the addition of nanoparticles at higher percentages (3 ‐5%). Hence, the ideal filler ratio corresponds to 1%.
