If resin is packed in sandy stage what will be seen in the processed denture ?
Correct answer: B. Porosity
- A. Distortion
- B. Porosity
- C. Inhomogeneous colour
- D. Increased strength
Explanation
Packing acrylic resin in the sandy stage prevents proper adaptation and leaves interparticle spaces that become porosity after curing. Dough-stage packing is preferred because the material is cohesive and flows uniformly under pressure.
