Abstract:Changes in the surface roughness of dental restorative materials after tooth brushing are inevitable. The abrasion is known to increase the possibility of dental plaque accumulation which is responsible for several pathologies of the oral cavity. The aim of this in vitro study was to evaluate the changes of surface roughness of microhybrid composite materials produced by different toothbrushes with and without toothpaste. Forty-eight specimens of two composite materials (Charisma and Super-Cor) were prepared u… Show more
