| description | Objective . The aim of this study was to assess the effect of different polishing systems on the color stability of bioactive dental resin composites compared to a conventional composite. Materials and Methods . Two different bioactive dental resin composites (Beautifil Flow Plus F00 and Activa Presto) along with a nanohybrid composite (Filtek Z250 XT) were tested. A total of 20 samples per material were prepared and divided into four groups as per polishing protocol: Sof-Lex Diamond, Jiffy and TorVm polishing systems as well as a control group without polishing. A spectrophotometer was used to measure the color parameters before and after immersion in a coffee solution for 12 days. The color change (ΔE _00 ) was calculated after immersion for each sample. Gloss was also measured at baseline and post immersion using a gloss meter. Results . There was a significant change in both ΔE _00 and gloss in all materials (p < 0.05). Z250 XT exhibited better color stability and gloss retention, particularly with the Jiffy system. Beautifil Flow Plus F00 demonstrated acceptable color stability and high gloss with the TorVm discs. Activa Presto showed significant color changes across all polishing systems. Conclusions . This work highlights the importance of understanding the effect of polishing systems on dental resin composites for optimal aesthetic outcomes. Despite the obvious benefits of bioactivity in both Beautifil Flow Plus F00 and Activa Presto, their performance regarding both color stability and gloss retention was lower than the inert Z250 XT. These findings emphasize the need for careful material and technique selection in clinical practice to ensure the longevity and esthetic quality of dental restorations. |
