Abstract: A known elastomeric non-methyl methacrylate soft material has been used as a soft denture liner material. The material includes powder and liquid components which are mixed together and cured. The invention involves new uses of the material. Where the invention involves a lining over a void in an acrylic denture, the resultant mixture is applied over the underlying surface of the acrylic over the void to chemically and mechanically bond the mixture in a seamless bond to the underlying surface of acrylic. A liner is formed having the characteristics of being flexible, resilient, shape retentive, hydrophobic, soft, spongy and cushiony. A known sealer component is then applied over the liner to create a non-absorbent exterior surface seal and glaze. Where the method is used to apply a liner around an implant cylinder or an implant healing cap anchored into a jaw bone the resultant mixture is applied around the surface of the implant or healing cap for forming a liner or gasket.
