PURPOSE: The purpose of this study was to determine the hardness of plasticized acrylic resin soft lining materials over time when curing procedures were modified and when surface sealers were either used or omitted.MATERIALS AND METHODS: A chairside plasticized acrylic resin material and a heat processed plasticized resin material were made into disks 40 mm in diameter and 10 mm in thickness. Materials were cured by processing at an elevated temperature or at mouth temperature. Five samples were used with each processing method. Half of all samples were treated with a surface sealer, whereas the other samples received no surface treatment. After processing, the samples were immersed in 37 degrees C water for a total time of 1 year. Specimens were tested to determine hardness on a monthly basis. Testing was accomplished using a Shore A durometer.RESULTS: Hardness testing showed differences relative to material and to time after processing. The heat-processed plasticized resin material showed significantly higher Shore A hardness values than the chairside over the entire experimental period (p
