Abstract: | This study deals with the influence of surface roughness on the color of resin composites. Ten resin composites (microfilled,
hybrid, and microhybrid) were each polished with 500-grit, 1 200-grit, 2 000-grit, and 4 000-grit SiC papers. The roughness
parameter (R
a) was measured using a Plμ confocal microscope, and field-emission scanning electron microscope (Fe-SEM) images were used
to investigate filler morphology. Color was measured using a spectroradiometer and a D65 standard illuminant (geometry diffuse/0°
specular component excluded (SCE) mode). Surface roughness decreased with grit number and was not influenced by filler size
or size distribution. A significant influence of R
a on lightness (L*) was found. Lightness increased with decreases in roughness, except for specimens that underwent polishing procedure 4 (PP4;
500-grit, 1 200-grit, 2 000-grit, and 4 000-grit SiC papers consecutively). Generally, it was found that surface roughness
influenced the color of resin composites. The composites that underwent PP1 (500-grit SiC paper) exhibited significant differences
in chroma (C*), hue (h°), and lightness (L*) compared to composites that underwent PP3 (500-grit, 1 200-grit, and 2 000-grit SiC papers consecutively) and PP4. Color
difference (ΔE*) between the polishing procedures was within acceptability thresholds in dentistry. |
