Abstract
Poly methyl methacrylate (PMMA) is the most often used acrylic for partial and full dentures. Denture fractures are induced by fatigue as a result of repeated masticatory, flexural, and impact stresses. PMMA’s remarkable qualities, such as beauty, cost-effectiveness, ease of manipulation, low density, and tunable mechanical properties, make it an ideal option for use in dentistry. The durability of pure PMMA is improved by incorporating appropriate weight percentages of nano reinforcement of ceramic material. The doping of nano-reinforcement materials enhances the tensile strength, compressive strength, micro-hardness; flexural strength, yield strength, impact strength, transverse strength, thermal expansion coefficient and decreases water sorption of PMMA composites investigated by different researchers. This study explores how the biopolymer matrix (PMMA) is affected by aluminum oxide (Al2O3), zirconium oxide (ZrO2), and titaniun dioxide (TiO2) reinforcements in terms of mechanical, physical, and tribological characteristics of PMMA dental composites. Additionally, the applications of polymer- based composites are explored.
