This study evaluated accuracy of fit, impact strength, types and morphology of fractures of a microwave acrylic resin polymerized with a cycle alternative to that recommended by the manufacturer. Onda Cryl was polymerized according to the manufacturer's instructions (MC), 3 min at 360 W, 4-min pause, and 3 min at 810 W; and with an alternative cycle (AC) of 6 min at 630 W. Accuracy of fit was measured at 3 points at the right (A) and left (B) ridge crests and at the midline (C) on the posterior palatal seal for each denture base (n = 10/group). The measurements were taken immediately after finishing and after 30-day storage in water. The impact strength test (Charpy method) was performed with a 40 kJ/cm load (n = 20/group). Fractographic analysis was accomplished for all fragments and the fracture types were characterized by means of their morphology, crack propagation angles and microstructure. Accuracy of fit data were analyzed by ANOVA, impact strength and radius values were compared by the t test, and the fractographic analysis data, by the Wilcoxon Mann-Whitney test. The significance level was fixed at p &lt; 0.05. No statistical differences were found between the two cycles of polymerization used. However, after the 30-day storage period in water, the denture bases showed better fit (P &lt; .05). Most of the fractures were classified as brittle (MD: 70%, AC: 80%). Based on the results of this study, it could be concluded that both polymerization cycles are adequate to polymerize the denture resin studied.
