The purpose of this study was to investigate the deformation and flexural properties of acrylic and urethane polymers reinforced with glass fiber sheet. Four types of specimen —self-curing resin plate (R), light-curing oligomer plate containing a reinforcement (GO), and self-curing resin plate containing a reinforcement on one (GR) or both (GRG) sides— were prepared with three thicknesses: 1.5, 2.4, and 3.0mm. Gaps between polymerized test specimen and a standard metal plate were measured at the corner (C), middle of the long sides (LS), and middle of the short sides (SS). The gaps for R were 0-2.0μm. GO and GR markedly deformed at Points C, LS, and SS, and the degree of deformation increased as GO became thinner. Flexural strength was significantly increased by the reinforcement (p<0.05). The flexural moduli of 3.0-mm thick R, GO, and GR were significantly smaller than that of 1.5-mm thick specimens.
