Aim: Aimed at determination of some physical properties namely; water sorption, color stability, glass transitional temperature and degree of conversion of newly introduced thermoplastic denture base materials. Moreover, the bond strength of acrylic teeth to these materials was evaluated. Result; Regarding the water sorption test the conventional heat-cured acrylic resin showed the highest statistically significant corrected water sorption, and there was no statistically significant difference between two newly introduced thermoplastic denture base materials , On the other hand, the two thermoplastic resin denture base showed the highest color stability value than the conventional heat cured acrylic resin denture base. However, the glass transitional temperature values of the Bre.Flex had the lowest Tg among all tested materials
