[A comparative evaluation of the increase in heat during the polymerization reaction of resins for temporary fixed dentures].

Self-curing resins enable the operator to prepare directly temporary prosthesis on single crown abutments. However such a technique may involve the danger of an inflammation of the pulp, due to the exothermic polymerization reaction of self-curing resins. The Authors suggest experimentally assessing the thermic increase during the polymerization reaction of seven different resins. Moreover they want to estimate the influence of the ratio monomer-polymer on the thermic curve of such reactions.
