Brief Summary

Review the sponsor-provided synopsis that highlights what the study is about and why it is being conducted.

The present study tried to integrate all aspects of denture care: patient satisfaction with the treatment, denture decontamination and base material defects after decontamination processing.

Detailed Description

Dive into the extended narrative that explains the scientific background, objectives, and procedures in greater depth.

Considering that it is necessary to stipulate a simple and effective routine protocol for denture cleaning the aim of this study was to evaluate, in vivo, the efficacy of 0.5% sodium hypochlorite (NaOCl) as a denture cleanser and its effect on color stability and surface roughness of complete dentures. The patients' satisfaction with the denture cleaning method was also assessed.
