Comparative Evaluation of two Polishing Systems on the Surface Texture of an aesthetic material (nano-composite): A Profilometric Study
نویسندگان
چکیده
Composites have revolutionized the concept in asthetic dentistry. Proper finishing and polishing of composites are important aspects of clinical restorative procedures that enhance both asthetics and the longevity of the restoration. A number of finishing and polishing devices are available, but to decide the efficacy of various materials is still a challenge to the dentists or clinicians. Hence the study was undertaken to determine the effectiveness of two polishing systems Sof-Lex and PoGo on Filtek Z350 by evaluating surface roughness using a Profilometer. The study concluded that Sof-Lex is a better polishing system than PoGo.

The continuous development of esthetically acceptable adhesive restorative material has made a variety of tooth-colored materials available for clinical use. The advent of visible light polymerizing resin and the use of finer filler particles permit resin composites to be polished to higher degree. The effect of polishing systems on surface finish has been reported to be material-dependent, and...
