Abstract:
Many sensitizing chemicals and additives are used in manifacturing and mending dentures. Among them, phtolyldiethanolamine, a kind of accelerto for polymerization, is necessary only in self-curing acrylic resins which are available for repairing and relining of denture. Although the sotirce of denture stomatitis is still controversial, a true allergy to denture base materials can be recognized by a patch test. We report a case of allergic contact stomatitis due to dentn e relining materials in a 65-year-old denturecariying edentulous patient. Patch testievi.aled positive reaction to polyldiethanolamine which is considerd to be contained in a cold curing acrylic resin fluid.
