description Purpose: This study aims to investigate the influence of the build angle on the surface characteristics, accuracy, and dimensional stability of digital light processing (DLP) printed resin bases. Material and methods: Rectangular and complete denture base samples were fabricated at 0, 45, and 90-degree angles (n = 5 for rectangular samples; n = 10 for maxillary and mandibular denture base samples) using a DLP printer. Surface morphology and roughness were assessed using a profilometer, followed by measuring hydrophilicity with a contact angle meter. Accuracy (trueness and precision) and dimensional stability were evaluated at intervals of 1, 3, 7, 14, 28, and 42 days after base printing using best-fit-alignment and deviation analysis in 3D software. Statistical analysis was performed using one-way ANOVA for surface characteristics (α = 0.05), multi-way ANOVA for accuracy and dimensional stability data, and Tukey's test for post-hoc comparisons. Results: The 0-degree group exhibited significantly lower mean roughness (1.27 ± 0.19 μm) and contact angle (80.50 ± 3.71°) (P < 0.001) compared to the 90-degree and 45-degree groups. The 0-degree build angle led to superior trueness (maxilla: 77.80 ± 9.35 μm, mandible: 61.67 ± 10.32 μm) and precision (maxilla: 27.51 ± 7.43 μm, mandible: 53.50 ± 15.16 μm) compared to other groups (P < 0.001). Maxillary base precision was superior to mandibular base precision (P < 0.001). The maxillary base exhibited less dimensional deviation than the mandibular base. The 90-degree group showed the highest deviation compared to the other two groups, and all groups' deviations increased over time (P < 0.001). Conclusions: The build angle significantly influences the surface characteristics, accuracy, and dimensional stability of DLP-printed denture bases. A 0-degree build angle provides the most favorable performance. The maxillary base displayed superior precision and dimensional stability than the mandibular base.
