| Abstract Background in order to regain esthetic, patients are given an ocular prosthesis. The majority of them are made of poly methyl methacrylate resin (PMMA), which is a popular material for maxillofacial prostheses including ocular prostheses, Fracture of poly methyl methacrylate occurs due to several reasons involving careless handling and falling of ocular prosthesis on hard surfaces, it is essential to strength the acrylic to improve the transverse strength of the resin. Materials &methods :50 samples were constructed from heat cured acrylic resins and divided into three groups (1control and 2 experimental group) Each group had ten specimens. The two experimental groups comprised the IBMA, EMA monomer at 1% and 2% concentrations, respectively. Such samples were prepared with dimensions of 65 mm x 10 mm x 2.5mm ± 0.1 length, width and thickness respectively according to (ADA specification, No.12, 1999). All the samples were tested for transverse strength. All data were analyzed using SPSS version 20. Tukey test was used for comparison between the groups. Results: There were highly significant differences (P<0.001) on the transverse strength between the control group and EMA, IBMA copolymers. Conclusion: The scleral acrylic resin incorporation with 1% and 2% wt % EMA, IBMA copolymers showed insignificant increase in transverse strength. | ||
