Abstract

The residual monomer content of dental appliances has been implicated as a cause of burning mouths and, since several methods have been advocated for its estimation, a study to establish the best technique is described. It was established that the gas chromatographic technique gave the most reliable results and has been used on several types of methyl methacrylate resins cured under a variety of techniques.
