    OBJECTIVES: To evaluate the effect of denture cleansers on surface roughness, hardness and color stability of 3D printed resins compared to heat-polymerized resin. METHODS: Acrylic specimens (N = 160) were prepared using one heat-polymerized (HP) and three 3D printed denture base resins. Specimens per material were randomly divided into four groups (n = 10) according to immersion solutions as follows: distilled water (DW), sodium hypochlorite (NaOCl), effervescent tablet 1 or effervescent tablet 2. Color changes (E) were measured using a spectrophotometer. Surface roughness (Ra, microm) and microhardness were evaluated. The results were analyzed using one- and three-way ANOVA with Tukey's post hoc test (alpha = 0.05). RESULTS: After 360 days of cleaning protocols, we observed a significant increase in the surface roughness of tested materials (P<0.001). Hardness values significantly decreased in all groups (P<0.001), except HP and ND specimens, cleaned with effervescent tablet 1 (P>0.05) and AS specimens with effervescent tablet 2 (P = 0.051). According to the National Bureau of Standards (NBS) score, all denture base specimens had 'perceivable' to 'extremely marked' color change after immersion in NaOCl, while immersion in effervescent tablets 1 and 2 resulted in a 'slight' to 'marked' color change. CONCLUSION: 3D printed denture bases exhibited changes in surface roughness, hardness and color similar to HP denture base material. The use of denture cleansers resulted in a time-dependent increase in surface roughness and a decrease in hardness. The color change was significant with NaOCl, while effervescent denture cleansers produced a minimal color difference. CLINICAL SIGNIFICANCE: Denture cleansers seem to influence surface properties over time. The degree of impact is mainly dependent on the type of cleanser selected, regardless of the type of denture base material.
