To provide a most suitable block body for producing a denture base used when producing a denture base by cutting, the block body for producing a denture base is produced by polymerizing a (meth)acrylate monomer so as to have a color tone within a range that L* is 40 to 55, a* is 14 to 31, and b* is 5 to 20 when the color tone is measured with a sample thickness of 4mm based on JIS Z8729, and to be preferably in a cylindrical shape having a diameter of 8 to 15cm and a height of 1.5 to 5cm, or in an elliptical-cylindrical shape having a major diameter and minor diameter of 8 to 15cm and a height of 1.5 to 5cm.
