[Passivity of certain disinfectant substances in the presence of acrylic resins].

On the basis of data published in the specialized literature the authors have experimented the effects of five substances currently used for the disinfection of prostheses. These included: Denclen (a British product), Super Quick's (made in the FRG), and Leodent also a West German product), as well as two general disinfectants of the buccal cavity: perogen and bromocet, on the acrylic resins used for the dental prostheses: Superpont (made in Czechoslovakia) and Romacryl (a Romanian product). The study showed that these substances, both the special ones and the general disinfectants are not completely passive when in contact with the acrylic prostheses. They should be used with care, and in accordance with the indications concerning concentration and duration of application.
