ABSTRACT
Objective:
The aim of this study was to assess the ac-tion of fluoride solutions on color stability (?E) and sur-face roughness (Ra) of composites (HeliomolarTM, 4 Sea-sonsTM, Tetric N-CeramTM, SR AdoroTM). Materials andmethod:
A Teflon matrix (12x2 mm) was used to fabri-cate 24 test specimens for each composite. The samples were separated into 4 groups (n=6), according to the immersion solution distilled water (control), acidulated phosphate fluoride (1.23%), neutral sodium fluoride gel (2%), and solution of sodium fluoride (0.05%). Color (Spectrophotometer PCB 6807) and roughness (Surf-corder SE 1700) readings were performed before and after immersion into the solutions.Results:
Composites presented color alteration within clinically acceptable limits (?E<3.3), increasing according to the periods of immersion. Regarding roughness, it was observed that Ra values were lower than the critical limit to promote increase in dental biofilm retention (Ra>0.2 µm). Con-clusions Color and surface roughness alteration of the different composites was clinically acceptable after im-mersion in all fluoride solutions and in all periods.
