background: there are many concerns regarding the marginal seal of composite restorations, especially when composite restorations are subjected to cyclic loading. the aim of this study was to evaluate the effect of cyclic loading on the microleakage of silorane based composite compared with low shrinkage methacrylate-based composites in class v cavities. materials and methods: in this in vitro ...

Introduction: The color stability of composite resins is a fundamental factor in their clinical behavior. Objective: To evaluate the color stability of composite resins of different colors exposed to a colabased soft drink after different storage periods. Additionally, three methacrylate-based materials and one silorane-based material were evaluated. Material and methods: Specimens of three met...

Objective: This study aimed to evaluate the suitability of one specific silorane-based composite for the application as a repair material for different substrates. Materials and methods: Truncated cones of composites fabricated and thermocycled for 6000 cycles to serve as a substrate were made of two commercially available dimethacrylate-based composites (DBC) (Filtek Supreme and Clearfil APX) ...

Aim: To evaluate invitro the effect of post obturation materials on reinforcement of peri-cervical dentin (PCD) Materials and Method : Sixty extracted, maxillary premolar teeth were selected.After preparation of standardized access, crowns were resected so that a final dimension of 4 mm from one mm below highest point of proximal cervical line was achieved. Then, the enamel was carefully remove...

OBJECTIVE The aim of this study was to determine the effects of 40% hydrogen peroxide and 15% carbamide peroxide on microhardness and color change of a silorane-based composite resin in comparison with two methacrylate-based composites. MATERIALS AND METHODS Fifty-four disc-shaped specimens (A3 shade) were fabricated of Filtek P90 (P90), Filtek Z350XT Enamel (Z350) and Filtek Z250 (Z250) (3ME...

BACKGROUND Despite the growing tendency toward tooth-colored restorations in dentistry, polymerization shrinkage and subsequent marginal microleakage remains a problem. The aim of this in vitro study was to compare microleakage between silorane-based and methacrylate-based composite resins at different time intervals and with different restorative techniques. MATERIALS AND METHODS In this in ...

BACKGROUND The authors conducted a study to evaluate esthetic restorative materials' color differences after setting and color matching between set materials and a shade guide. MATERIALS AND METHODS The authors evaluated 13 resin-based composites, one silorane-based composite, two polyacid-modified resin composites and one conventional glass ionomer cement. They measured the color parameters ...

statement of problem: despite the increasing demand for tooth-colored restorations in dentistry, polymerization shrinkage and marginal microleakage still remains a problem. objectives: the purpose of the present study was to evaluate microleakage in three different resin composites, p90, z250 and z250 xt, in class v cavity of permanent human premolars. materials and methods: standardized class ...
