Abstract:In general, patients’ opinions on reaching ideal esthetics while restoring dental tissues is one of the most important part of the oral treatment. Unfortunately, discoloration of dental materials may occur due to intrinsic and extrinsic factors. The aim of the study was to evaluate the color stability of frequently used dental resin materials and determine the mechanism of their discoloration. The study used various characterization techniques (optical microscopy, Fourier-transform infrared spectroscopy, low-t… Show more
