Temporary soft liners: a modified curing technique to extend liner longevity.

A modified curing technique that will extend the useful clinic life of temporary soft liners has been described. This technique offers the following distinct advantages over the traditional method of intraoral curing: (1) a liner that is less porous; (2) a liner that maintains its resilience intraorally for extended periods; (3) a liner that exhibits minimal discoloration over time; (4) increased density that allows adjustments to be made when necessary; and (5) minimized separation from the acrylic resin denture base.
