  Background: Regular usage of denture cleansers is recommended in complete denture wearers for effective plaque control, and these cleansers alter the physical properties of acrylic resin over a period of time. Thus, an in vitro study was carried out to assess the effect of denture cleansers on the color stability of heatâÂÃ?Â?ÂÃ?Â?cure denture base resin. Aim: The aim of the present study was to evaluate the effect of commercially available fastâÂÃ?Â?ÂÃ?Â?acting denture cleansers on the color stability of heatâÂÃ?Â?ÂÃ?Â?cure denture base resin at different time intervals. Materials and Methods: ThirtyâÂÃ?Â?ÂÃ?Â?six heatâÂÃ?Â?ÂÃ?Â?cure acrylic resin (Ivoclar Triplex HotâÂÃ?Â?ÂÃ?Â?V) specimens are randomly allocated into four groups âÂÃ?Â?ÂÃ?Â? Group A (distilled..
