| Purpose:to investigate and compare the influences of adding different concentrations of colloidal forms silver nanoparticles on color changes of heat cured acrylic resin denture base material submitted to Accelerated aging. Methods: A total of 40 disc-shaped specimens were prepared from heat cured PMMA resins with different concentration of silver nanoparticles. A double beam ultra-violet visible spectrophotometer was used to obtain diffuse reflectance data at every 5nm between 400-700nm. The results were recorded using a computer color matching system (CCM) and tabulated for the statistical analysis of the color differences (ΔE) data. Comparisons between the different studied groups were analyzed using F-test (ANOVA) and Post Hoc test (Scheffe) for pair-wise comparisons. Significance of the obtained results was judged at the significance level of α = 0.05. Results: All groups of heat-cured acrylic resin with the addition of (NAg) groups II, III and IV were showed significant (ΔE) values more than group I at initial and at stage I, II of accelerated aging records. In stage III only group IV was showed significant (ΔE) values more than group I of the same stage. Therefore, group IV was showed significantly highest mean (ΔE) value followed by group III then group II (P < 0.05) in all accelerated aging stages but group I was showed significantly lowest mean (ΔE). Conclusion: The silver nanoparticles incorporation within the acrylic denture base material can change its color. The higher incorporation of silver nanoparticles with accelerated aging, the more color difference values (ΔE) of the acrylic resin denture. | ||
