摘要
Objective. To evaluate the influence of tooth brushing on wear and surface roughness of four different particulate filler composite resins. Materials and methods. Six specimens (2 mm thick and 8 mm in diameter) of each tested material (Filtek Z250-Microhybrid, SpectrumTPH3-Submicron hybrid, Filtek Z350XT Nanofiller and Filtek P90- Microhybrid) were prepared according to the manufacturer%26apos;s directions. A brushing sequence of 5000, 10 000 and 20 000 cycles was performed for all the samples. A non-contact profilometer was used to determine average surface roughness (Ra) and wear of the material assessed using an analytic electronic balance at baseline and each cycle interval. The data obtained were analyzed using one-way ANOVAs and post-hoc multiple comparison tests. Paired t-test was used for comparisons between cycle intervals for each material. Analyses with scanning electron microscopy (SEM) were also performed. Results. The resin composite Filtek P 90 presented an increase in percentage weight loss after final toothbrushing cycles over the rest of the materials. Brushing significantly increased roughness (Ra) for all composites. Filtek Z250, after brushing, was significantly rougher than the other resins followed by Filtek P 90, Spectrum TPH 3 and Filtek Z350 XT. However, SEM images indicated severe change in surface topography of %26apos;sub-micron hybrid%26apos; specimen compared to each other after tooth brushing. Conclusions. Wear and surface roughness increased with each cycle interval for all the materials and one composite resin demonstrated a higher increase in surface roughness than the other three tested brands of composite resins. Not much difference was observed in the weight loss between tested samples.
