Maxillary denture relining Oral Health
Conditions
Interventions
The patients were randomly divided into three groups (n = 15)
allocation was concealed with the use of the BioStat program. The dentures were cleansed according to three methods: CG (control group) ? brushing with coconut soap and soft toothbrush
PG (perborate group) ? brushing according to previous methods and disinfection with warmed sodium perborate solution (Corega Tabs ? GlaxoSmithKline Brasil Ltda, Rio de Janeiro ? RJ, Brazil) for 5 mi

Design outcomes
Primary
| Measure | Time frame |
|---|---|
| 1. Microbial growth for each type of denture 48 hours after the reline procedure. Swabs were collected 48 hours after the reline procedure (day 0) and at the follow-up time intervals of 7, 15, 30, 90, and 180 days. 2. The surface roughness (Ra-µm) of each denture as measured using a profilometer with a resolution of 0.01 µm, an interval (cut-off length) of 0.8 mm, a transverse length of 2.4 mm, a stylus speed of 0.5 mm s-1, and a diamond stylus tip radius of 5 µm. One operator recorded all measurements, taken immediately after the relining and after 7, 15, 30, 90, and 180 days of treatment. | — |
