Aim: In this study, we intend to compare the linear dimensional changes of interocclusal recording media by immersing them in disinfectant solutions at different time intervals.
Materials and methods: Five interocclusal recording materials were used for this study and were grouped according to material types, namely wax, zinc oxide eugenol impression paste, polyether, polyvinyl siloxane, and bisacryl bite registration material. Each material was manipulated and injected into a stainless steel die. The materials were divided into 5 groups with 5 subgroups of 10 samples with a total of 250 samples. The samples were subjected to immersion in 2% glutaraldehyde and 0.5% sodium hypochlorite each for 30 and 60 minutes. Linear dimensional changes of the samples were tested by measuring the distance between points A and B at different time intervals by means of a stereomicroscope and compared with the control group.
Results: Bisacryl showed the least linear dimensional change when immersed in both the solutions.
Conclusion: Bisacryl (Luxabite) presented no linear dimensional change at both time intervals as opposed to the other materials, hence, it is most accurate.
