Color stability of modern composites subjected to different periods of accelerated artificial aging

Abstract: The aim of this study was to evaluate the color stability of composites subjected to different periods of accelerated artificial aging (AAA). A polytetrafluorethylene matrix (10 x 2 mm) was used to fabricate 24 test specimens of three different composites (n=8): Tetric Ceram (Ivoclar/Vivadent); Filtek P90 and Z250 (3M ESPE), shade A3. After light activation for 20 s (FlashLite 1401), polishing and initial color readout (Spectrophotometer PCB 687; BYK Gardner), the test specimens were subjected to AAA (C-UV; Co… Show more

“…Unfortunately, only a small number of researchers combine selected environmental factors: most studies are known from the research of industrial composites. Accelerated artificial ageing protocols typically use long intervals of exposure to UV-B rays, humidity, and alterations in temperature [158][159][160]. Some studies try to use more accurate protocols to simulate ageing in mouth, such as protocols based on a pH-cycling regimen and tooth brushing cycles [161,162].…”

“… 15 The CIELAB system of color assessment quantitatively assess the color features of an object, based on three parameters (L*, a* e b*): L* is the measurement of brightness quantified on a scale in which black has an L* value equal to zero, whereas a totally reflected light has an L* value equal to 100; a* measures the amount of red (+a*) and green (-a*); and b* measures the amount of yellow (+b*) and blue (-b*). Total color changes (Δ E*ab) were calculated by the following equation: 16 Δ E*ab = [(Δ L*)² + (Δ a*)² + (Δ b*)²]1/2.…”

“…The susceptibility of the composite to percolation of staining substances is related to its chemical composition, which includes the type of monomer, the type of inorganic filler, the used photoinitiator and the quality of the matrix/filler interface 14 . It is also modulated by its degree of conversion and network characteristics, since a low degree of conversion leads to degradation of the polymer network and release of byproducts 6,12,15,16 . The nanocomposite used in this study is recommended to both anterior and posterior restorations and has been characterized elsewhere 17 , revealing a degree of conversion of 46% on the top surface and of 38% on the bottom surface of a 2 -mm thick specimen.…”
