Cleaning a printed denture base correctly is essential for optimal results in the fabrication process. The PacDent Rodin Full and Partial Denture Fabrication Installation Guide recommends the following steps: First, carefully remove support structures from the base and eliminate any excess resin using compressed air or a paper towel. Next, rinse the printed denture base in a 99% isopropyl alcohol (IPA) bath with agitation. It's recommended to transfer the base to a second IPA bath for an additional 5 minutes of washing. Finally, thoroughly dry the denture base with compressed air. A properly cleaned base will have a matte finish. If any shiny spots remain, indicating residual resin, rewash those areas with fresh IPA and dry again with compressed air. Repeat this process as necessary. Following these steps ensures your printed denture base is free from resin and debris, creating a clean surface for pre-finishing and subsequent stages of denture creation.
