Color changes in bulk-fill resin composites as a result of visible light-curing
Source abstract
Abstract
We evaluated twelve commercially available bulk-fill resin composites to determine the colorimetric changes that occurred as a result of the photo-polymerization reaction. Samples of the resin composites were prepared as disks 8 mm in diameter and 3 mm in thickness. A colorimeter was used to measure the color of samples on a black background before and after the polymerization processed had been initiated. As results, each of the photo-initiated bulk-fill resin composites tested except for Beautifil Bulk A showed a significant color difference more than that of conventional resin composites. Bulk Base Flow became darker, whereas Beautifil Bulk Flow became clearly lighter. All resin composites except for Bulk Base Flow became less yellow. Thus, Beautifil Bulk A exhibited the least color change among all the bulk-fill resin composites. However, this color change showed a marked change (NBS units) as observed by the human naked eye.
