Finishing and Polishing Evaluation of Novel Dental Composites after Three Body Wear, An Invitro- Scanning Electron Microscope Study
Bharath.N, Dinesh.D.S
Abstract: Finishing and polishing of composite restorative materials plays a major role in success and longevity of restoration. Aim of this study is to analyze the finishing and polishing procedures by measuring the surface roughness of the novel resin composites using profilometer and scanning electron microscopy before and after subjection to three body wear simulation method. The four posterior composites evaluated are p90, filtekz 350, tetricevoceram, filtek z250. The mean surface roughness was found to be highest in group 4 and lowest in group 1 and these findings were confirmed by scanning electron microscope findings.
