Abstract
Abstract Objective: To assess the influence of Khat extract and other staining media on color changes in composite resins subjected to various polishing methods. Methods: 84 disk-shaped
Highlights
IntroductionComposite resin is considered the material of choice when esthetic appearance is a concern [1,2]
Among direct restorative materials, composite resin is considered the material of choice when esthetic appearance is a concern [1,2]
The reliability test was performed after two weeks of re- between Filtek Z350 XT and Valux Plus and between Filtek examination of 10% of the specimens
Summary
Composite resin is considered the material of choice when esthetic appearance is a concern [1,2]. When this material is present in the oral environment, it becomes vulnerable to the influence of some factors that may result in staining [3]. If a composite resin can absorb water, it can absorb other fluids, resulting in color alteration. Previous studies have shown that composite resins are susceptible to color instability when exposed to various staining media, especially red wine, coffee, cola, tea, and whisk [5,6,7,8,9]
