what are Bisacryls
Dimethacrylates
examples of Bisacrylcs
BisGMA (provisa, Protemp) Urethane Dimethacrylate (Luxatemp)
use of Monomethacrylates
Provisions
Old styles custom trays
Dentures, RPD bases
Low end denture teeth (high end are interpenetated networks with crosslinking)
speed of Acrylic polymerization
FAst (generates lots of heat)
-1,000,000 units a second
difference chemically of Jet and trim
jet has a methyl group hanging off the ether
Trim has an ethyl group hanigng of the ether
