Microwave-polymerized denture base acrylic resins were comparable in stiffness and strength with conventionally processed acrylic resin. All acrylic resins decreased in stiffness and strength after load cycling. The microwave-specific resin was significantly stiffer and stronger than the other denture base acrylic resins, initially and after 120 000 load cycles.
