SUMMARY Objective: To examine how exposure to accelerated artificial aging (AAA) stimuli (ultraviolet [UV] light) affects the color stability of a composite resin following surface sealant (SS) application. Methods and Materials: A total of 30 cylindrical composite resin (Esthet-X) discs were prepared using Teflon-coated rings. The treatment groups, defined by different SS (Seal-N-Sine, PermaSeal, OptiGuard, Biscover LV, and DuraFinish) use, were divided into five groups of six discs each. The discs were subjected to baseline color measurements followed by measurements after surface sealant application (specular included component [SCI] and specular excluded component [SCE]) using a spectrophotometer. Three measurements (SCI and SCE) were performed for a total of 18 readings (test surface) per specimen group. All specimens were then exposed to a UV light source for a total of 382 hours. Color readings of the specimens were again recorded for each group. Quantitative color measurements were executed using Commission Internationale de l'Eclairage L*a*b* calculations. Results: Baseline color measurements of the composite resin discs, following the AAA exposure protocol, revealed no significant differences. A comparison of the composite resin discs before and after SS application (without UV light exposure) showed statistically significant differences using both SCI and SCE measurement criteria. Although significant differences were encountered between the ΔL*, Δa*, Δb*, and ΔE parameters, all specimens (groups) were within the clinically acceptable range (1.0<ΔE≤ 3.3). Again, statistically significant differences were noted (ΔL*, Δa*, Δb*, and ΔE parameters) for all specimen groups receiving SS application, utilizing both SCI and SCE measurements, following exposure to UV light. All groups were within the clinically acceptable range (1.0<ΔE≤ 3.3), except the Durafinish group. The Durafinish SS group experienced significantly greater (p<0.001) overall color change (SCI and SCE) following UV light exposure. An intergroup comparison following UV exposure revealed that the Permaseal, OptiGuard, and Seal-n-Shine SS groups displayed the least amount of color change statistically but not necessarily always perceptibly significant, while the Durafinish group exhibited the greatest color change statistically and perceptibly. Conclusions: The color stability of a composite resin, including the addition of most SSs, was not affected perceptibly by UV light exposure.

This study investigated the effect of sealant application on the color stability of composite resin restorations. Cavities in bovine incisors were restored with composite resin (Opallis; FGM) and the teeth were assigned to 4 groups (n=10). A sealant (Fill Glaze; Vigodent) was applied over the restorations of 2 groups. Baseline color measurements based on the CIEL*a*b* system were carried out using a spectrophotometer. Half the number of specimens was immersed in distilled water, and half was immersed in coffee 4 h/day. Color measurements were repeated after 1 h, 24 h, 7 days and 3 months. Data for each immersion solution were separately subjected to a two-way repeated measures ANOVA and Tukey’s test (α=0.05). For the group without sealant immersed in water, no significant differences were observed among the periods (p≥0.138), but the color was different compared with baseline (p<0.001). For the group with sealant application, the periods baseline, 1 h and 3 months presented similar results (p≥0.924). For groups immersed in coffee, when the sealant was not used, no significant differences were detected between the baseline and the periods 1 h and 24 h (p≥0.499), but the color changed significantly thereafter (p≤0.003). In the group with sealant, significant differences were detected for all periods compared with each other (p<0.001). In conclusion, application of sealant dramatically increased the staining of the restorations exposed to coffee.

The testing of thin colored coatings based on urethane acrylate composition is a technologically advanced, highly specialized and complex process. For decorative pigmented coatings color stability is crucial quality parameter. The photo chemically curable polymer films were prepared by addition of 3 different radical initiators (KTO, TPO, TPO-L) to aliphatic urethane acrylate composition with various pigments (solid and fluorescent). Coating color change were evaluated in UV chamber (with luminous intensity 130 mw spectrum λmax = 405 nm) after 1 h, 48 h and 72 h. Color measurements were performed according to the CIEL*a*b* color standard to evaluate their stability over time. It was found that pigmented coatings have higher risk of yellowness than clear coatings. Also fluorescent pigments containing red has tendency to yellow after UV light exposure. The influence of the photoinitiator on the color stability were inconsiderable.

AbstractThis study evaluated the influence of fluoride mouth rinses and repolishing on the superficial morphology and color stability of nanofilled resin. About 150 specimens were prepared and polished using aluminum oxide discs for 15 s with a pressure of 2 kg. The experimental groups were divided according to the immersion medium (artificial saliva, 0.5% sodium fluoride, Fluordent Reach, Oral B, Fluorgard) and repolishing procedure (without and with). The specimens were continuously immersed for 1 week. Thereafter, half of each sample was repolished. A color reading was performed after 24 h of immersion in the artificial saliva baseline, after continuous immersion, and after repolishing. The superficial morphology was examined using scanning electron microscopy (SEM) in a qualitative way. Color change (∆E) data were submitted to a mixed analysis of variance using a Shapiro–Wilk test (p>0.05 for the different immersion media) and Sidak’s test (p<0.05 for the differences between groups). In the interaction between the repolishing and the immersion media, Fluorgard showed a statistical difference between the ∆E values with and without repolishing (p<0.0001). On the SEM observations, both Fluordent Reach and Fluorgard caused degradation of the superficial resinous matrix of the composite after continuous immersion. This matrix was removed after repolishing.

ABSTRACT Objective: To investigate the effect of beverages′ temperature on the surface roughness, hardness, and color stability of a composite resin. Materials and Methods: Fifty specimens of the Filtek Z250 composite (3M ESPE, Dental Products, St.Paul, MN, USA) were prepared and initial roughness, microhardness, and color were measured. Then the specimens were randomly divided into five groups of 10 specimens each: Coffee at 70°C, coffee at 37°C, cola at 10°C, cola at 37°C, and artificial saliva (control). After the samples were subjected to 15 min × 3 cycles per day of exposure to the solutions for 30 days, the final measurements were recorded. Results: After immersion in beverages, the artificial saliva group showed hardness values higher than those of the other groups (P < 0.001) and the microhardness values were significantly different from the initial values in all groups except for the control group. Both cola groups showed roughness values higher than the baseline values (P < 0.05), while the other groups showed values similar to the baseline measurements. When ΔE measurements were examined, the 70°C coffee group showed the highest color change among all the groups (P < 0.05). Conclusion: High-temperature solutions caused alterations in certain properties of composites, such as increased color change, although they did not affect the hardness or roughness of the composite resin material tested.

Objective: The aesthetics of dental materials is extremely important for the success of oral rehabilitation. Thus, in the present study we evaluated the color stability and the surface degradation of three micro hybrid composite resins after accelerated artificial aging process (AAA). Methods: Were prepared 24 specimens (n=8) for each material: Solidex, Artglass and Cesead, dimensions of Ø 15 mm by 2 mm in thickness. The samples were subjected to color analysis, before and after AAA, in a spectrophotometer according to the CIE L*a*b* parameters, and a sample of each material, was selected for morphological evaluation under scanning electron microscopy (SEM). The data were submitted to one-way ANOVA and Tukey test (α=0.05). Results: Artglass showed higher stability regarding the presence of red and yellow (p<0.05) when subjected to the AAA and fewer of these pigments (p<0.05) when compared to the Cesead and Solidex, which showed the highest luminance stability (p<0.05). ΔE Cesead was the most unstable (p<0.05). All resins analyzed by SEM showed superficial degradation when submitted to the AAA, mainly in resin Cesead. Conclusion: All materials analyzed demonstrate color change and surface degradation, Cesead resin showed the worse results.

We aimed to evaluate the color stability of bulk-fill and conventional composite resin with respect to thickness and storage media. Twenty specimens of a conventional composite resin (6 mm diameter and 2 mm thick) and 40 specimens of the bulk-fill Tetric EvoCeram composite resin at two different thicknesses (6 mm diameter and 2 mm thick or 4 mm thick,n=20) were prepared. The specimens were stored in distilled water during the study period (28 d). Half of the specimens were remained in distilled water and the other half were immersed in coffee solution 20 min/d and kept in distilled water between the cycles. Color changes (ΔE) were measured using the CIEL⁎a⁎b⁎color space and a digital imaging system at 1, 7, 14, and 28 days of storage. Data were analyzed using Two-way ANOVA and Tukey’s HSD post hoc test (P<0.05). Composite resins showed significant increase in color changes by time (bulk-fill > conventional;P<0.001). Coffee exhibited significantly more staining susceptibility than that of distilled water (P<0.001). There was greater color changes with increasing the increment thickness, which was significant at 14 (P<0.001) and 28 d (P<0.01). Color change of bulk-fill composite resin was greater than that of the conventional one after coffee staining and is also a function of increment thicknesses.

ABSTRACT Objective to analyze the surface roughness and color stability of the composite resin after surface treatment with the aluminum oxide discs and subsequent exposure to the Advanced Teeth Whitening Strips. Methods 20 specimens of the Filtek Z350XT restorer (3M®) were prepared and daily subjected to home bleaching for 30 minutes during 14 days. A precision rugosimeter was used in order to verify the roughness by means of 3 random readings in the same direction in each sample. For color stability the CIELAB system (L*, a*, b* values) was used through the spectrophotometer (MINOLTA CR -321, Japan). The means of the test specimens as well as the mean of each group were calculated using the random readings. Data statistical analysis were performed by ANOVA- analysis of variance. The level of significance was set at 5% (p ≤ 0.05). Results Roughness did not present great numerical variations. No statistically significant difference between the means obtained concerning the surface roughness of the composite resin with p = 0.44 was observed. However, it was found that there was a statistically significant difference between the means obtained in relation to the color stability of the composite resin, p=0. 007. Conclusion It was concluded that pre-contoured strips containing 6% hydrogen peroxide do not have a significant adverse effect on the roughness of Z350XT (3M®) resin. However, it was also concluded that according to the color stability analysis performed, there may be an indication of the restoration replacement after the bleaching treatment, due to their color change.

 Objective: The aim of this in vitro study was to evaluate the color stability of different bulk fill composite resins after extrinsic staining with coffee. Material and methods: Forty-eight disk-shaped specimens (6 mm diameter x 2 mm thick) of each composite resin were prepared for color change test. The composite resins were divided into 4 groups (n=12): one conventional composite resin (Filtek Z250) and three bulk-fill composite resins (Filtek Bulk Fill, Aura Bulk Fill, and Opus Bulk Fill). The samples were stained with 20 mL coffee solution for 7 days, with the solution being replaced every 24 h. The color change analysis was performed using a spectrophotometer, according to the CIE Lab formula. Data were analyzed using the Analysis of variance (ANOVA) and Tukey HSD tests (?=0.05). Results: The results revealed significant differences in color change among the composite resins tested (?<0.0001). The Aura Bulk Fill and Opus Bulk Fill showed the highest color change values. Conclusions: Thus, all the resins analyzed were susceptible to extrinsic staining with coffee, and the Filtek Bulk Fill showed the lowest color change value.
