Abstract
Denture soreness with associated pain is one of the most alarming situations seen in complete denture wearers. Hard acrylic denture bases are liable to stress the mucosa beyond its physiological levels of tolerance leading to inflammation and resorption. Excessive resorption of the residual ridges may cause impairment of stability of the denture bases, which is accompanied by soreness, pain and discomfort to the patient masticatory system. The present study was conducted to evaluate the tensile bond strength of some of the commercially available soft liners with denture base resin.
