Background:Polymethyl methacrylate (PMMA) has long been the standard for denture base fabrication, but conventional heat- and cold-cured methods present drawbacks such as porosity, residual monomer release, and limited mechanical strength. Recently, UV-polymerized acrylic resins have emerged as a promising alternative. Objective:To review and synthesize current scientific data on the mechanical, thermal, chemical, and biological properties of UV-polymerized acrylic materials for denture bases and evaluate their clinical potential. Methods:A systematic literature review was conducted using Scopus, PubMed, ScienceDirect, and Google Scholar databases, focusing on articles published between 2014 and 2024. Forty-one studies were included, covering laboratory tests, clinical evaluations, and material technology assessments. Key parameters reviewed included flexural strength, surface hardness, porosity, residual monomer content, and biocompatibility.
