Purpose: This study was designed to investigate the adaptation of maxillary denture bases to stone casts with varying palatal vault processed by the conventional, and two anchoring methods. Material and methodology: Fifteen maxillary casts made of shallow palatal form and another fifteen made of deep palatal form were selected for the study. Fifteen of each group were further divided into 3 subgroups consisting of five casts in each sub group.(1 conventional group,2 anchorage groups).The anchoring methods used holes drilled on the cast and a special flange extended onto the posterior aspect of the maxillary cast. Twenty-four hours after polymerization, the bases on the casts were sectioned at the posterior border at pre-determined points and evaluated for the degree of adaptation, by using a stereomicroscope. The resultant data were analyzed using two-way analysis of variance followed by post hoc multiple comparison test.
