The purpose of this study was to investigate the effect of the electrolyzed water (strong acid electrolyzed water and strong alkaline electrolyzed water) on artificial resin teeth.
Four hard resin, one acrylic resin and poly sulfone resin artificial teeth were immersed in electrolyzed water and distilled water for two weeks. Knoop hardness, surface roughness, weight and color change were measured before immersion and 1 and 2 weeks after immersion.
Strong alkaline electrolyzed water changed the color of the artificial resin teeth more than distilled water. However, strong acid electrolyzed water had the same effect as distilled water on color of the artificial resin teeth. Knoop hardness, surface roughness, and weight were not affected by immersion in electrolyzed water and distilled water.
These results suggested that electrolyzed water dose not effect artificial resin teeth.
