description This study examines the possibility of assessing the quality of removable orthopedic devices by measuring the smoothness of their surfaces and detecting microscopic defects. The methodology involves comparing standard samples of the base material with samples that have been intentionally defective, using defectoscopy techniques for analysis. Initially, twenty samples of basic acrylic plastic were selected: half of them were perfectly machined to dental standards and the other half were intentionally scratched with sandpaper. These samples were then examined by macrophotography and analyzed using Image J software for quantitative image measurement. This analysis provided numerical data on the polished surface's quality, focusing on metrics such as the total number of defects, and the average size and perimeter of these defects. Statistical evaluation through the JUSP program compared the two sets of samples, highlighting significant differences between them. From the most prominent data points provided by Image J, conclusions were made regarding the surface quality of the acrylic plastic and how it is affected by specific mechanical imperfections. This method of using optical flaw detection offers a new way to clinically evaluate the quality of detachable orthopedic devices (like base plastic) in terms of their susceptibility to bacterial buildup, which could lead to inflammation in the prosthetic bed's mucosal lining. The use of flaw detection analysis allows for a general assessment of the quality of the material surface polishing, detection of surface defects in its structure that may occur during the production stage or during operation, thereby preventing areas of biofilm accumulation. Light-optical flaw detection in the experiment proved its effectiveness and makes us pay attention to the prospects of its improvement and wider implementation in clinical practice.
