Universitas Jember Researchers Detail Research in Health and Medicine [Effect of 25% Tobacco Leaf Extract (Nicotiana Tabacum L.) as a Denture Cleaning Paste on Surface Roughness and Color Change Thermoplastic Nylon].

Researchers from Universitas Jember conducted a study to evaluate the effects of a 25% tobacco leaf extract paste (TLEP) on the surface roughness and color change of thermoplastic nylon denture bases. The study found that brushing with 25% TLEP did not significantly affect the surface roughness or color change of the thermoplastic nylon plates. The results suggest that 25% TLEP can be used as a denture cleaning paste without causing negative effects on the thermoplastic nylon material. This research provides valuable insights for the field of dentistry and oral health. [Extracted from the article]
