Where the research included addressing the problems of fracture of artificial teeth, where the fracture of dentures made of acrylic resin is still an unresolved problem. There is no ideal base material for dentures, but the properties of PMMA can be improved with some reinforcement. Therefore, the aim of this study is to improve the mechanical properties of the denture base material, and this was done by using synthetic glass fibers and natural toothpicks.
