PURPOSE: Potential effects on hardness and roughness of a necessary and effective disinfecting regimen (1% sodium hypocholorite and 4% chlorhexidine) were investigated for two hard chairside reline resins versus a heat-polymerizing denture base acrylic resin. MATERIALS AND METHODS: Two standard hard chairside reliners (Kooliner and Duraliner II), one heat-treated chairside reliner (Duraliner II +10 minutes in water at 55 degrees C), and one standard denture base material (Lucitone 550) were exposed to two disinfecting solutions (1% sodium hypochlorite; 4% chlorhexidine gluconate), and tested for two surface properties [Vickers hardness number (VHN, kg/mm(2)); Roughness (Ra, microm)] for different times and conditions (1 hour after production, after 48 hours at 37 +/- 2 degrees C in water, after two disinfection cycles, after 7 days in disinfection solutions, after 7 days in water only). For each experimental condition, eight specimens were made from each material. Data were analyzed by analysis of variance followed by Tukey's test, and Student's t-test (p= 0.05). RESULTS: For Kooliner (from 6.2 +/- 0.3 to 6.5 +/- 0.5 VHN) and Lucitone 550 (from 16.5 +/- 0.4 to 18.4 +/- 1.7 VHN), no significant changes in hardness were observed either after the disinfection or after 7 days of immersion, regardless of the disinfectant solution used. For Duraliner II (from 4.0 +/- 0.1 to 4.2 +/- 0.1 VHN), with and without heat treatment, a small but significant increase in hardness was observed for the specimens immersed in the disinfectant solutions for 7 days (from 4.3 +/- 0.2 to 4.8 +/- 0.5 VHN). All materials showed no significant change in roughness (Kooliner: from 0.13 +/- 0.05 to 0.48 +/- 0.24 microm; Duraliner II, with and without heat treatment: from 0.15 +/- 0.04 to 0.29 +/- 0.07 microm; Lucitone 550: from 0.44 +/- 0.19 to 0.49 +/- 0.15 microm) after disinfection and after storage in water for 7 days. CONCLUSIONS: The disinfectant solutions, 1% sodium hypochlorite and 4% chlorhexidine gluconate, caused no apparent damage on hardness and roughness of the materials evaluated.
