Surface Roughness of Packable Composite Resins Polished with Various Systems

Abstract: The Sof-Lex disks and the Jiffy points produced the smoothest surfaces for the tested resin composites. As a result, they should be considered for clinical use as preferred polishing systems for these resin composites.

“…Although the control groups for each restorative material has the lowest Ra values, the surfaces produced were not perfect (Ra value = 0). This was because the surfaces produced were only as good as the matrix strip itself any surface imperfections present in the matrix will be reproduced in the surface of the specimens [5]. In this present study, as well as in others [17,28,44], mylar matrix strip formed the smoothest surface.…”

“…In contrast with this hypothesis, Garoushi et al [39] tested the influence of polishing resin composite materials with similar chemical base as the ones we tested (except for silorane), clearly showing no difference between the polished and unpolished samples. Anyway, and even if literature is not univocal concerning the influence of polishing on staining [39][40][41], we prefer to consider the obtained results as clinically relevant only for the above-mentioned clinical situation. A further study with the same protocol and materials and methods but polished samples will be carried out to elucidate definitively this topic.…”
