The purpose of this study was to evaluate the effects of various layer thicknesses and build angles on the flexural strength and surface roughness of repaired 3D-printed denture base resin. 3D-printed bar-shaped specimens with a 45° bevel were fabricated according to layer thickness(50 ㎛ and 100 ㎛) and build angle(0-degree, 45-degree, and 90-degree). Denture relining resin was applied to the 2 mm repair area Flexural strength was measured by a three-point bending test using a universal testing machine, and surface roughness(Ra) and surface topography were observed using a digital optical microscope at ×500 magnification. Statistical significance was analyzed using two-way ANOVA, one-way ANOVA, and Games-Howell post hoc(α = .05). Except for the 90-degree group, the group with a layer thickness of 100 ㎛ showed better flexural strength values than the group with a layer thickness of 50 ㎛(p < .05). Additionally, within the same layer thickness, the 45-degree group showed the lowest flexural strength value. The Ra values of the 0-degree and 90-degree groups, where the build angle was 45° to the layer orientation, were higher at 100 ㎛ than at 5 0 ㎛ layer thickness(p < .05), and the Ra value of the 45-degree group, where the build angle was parallel to the layer orientation, was lower than those of other build angles(p < .05). Layer thickness and build angle significantly affected the surface roughness of 3D-printed denture base resin, and the surface roughness was confirmed to be closely related to the bonding strength with denture relining resin.
