This paper reviews the adaptation accuracy and mechanical properties of currently used denture processing systems with base resin materials and introduces the latest research on the development of antimicrobial denture base resins. Poly methyl methacrylate) has been successfully used as a dental denture base resin material by the compress-molding method and heat polymerization for a long time, but recently, new processing techniques, injection molding-methods or fluid-resin technique are also used for fabricating denture base. However, studies indicated that there was no difference between the injectionmolding and the conventional compression-molding method in terms of adaption accuracy of denture base. The fluid-resin fabrication and one injection-molding systems exhibited better adaptation accuracy than the other processing methods. Resin denture bases in the oral cavity may undergo midline fractures due to flexural fatigue from repeated masticatory loading. For those patients, impact resistant denture base resins are recommended to prevent denture fracture during service. Thermoplastic denture base resins can be helpful for patients suffering from allergic reaction to resin monomers with a soft-fit, however, thermoplastic resins with low stiffness can irritate gum tissues and accelerate abnormal alveolar ridge resorption. Moreover, due to low chemical durability in oral cavity, those should be used for a limited period of time.
