Overview

In vitro study compares surface roughness changes in resin composites, indicating polishing paste choice matters.

Key Points

  • The smoothest surfaces were achieved with nano-hybrid composites polished using manufactured paste.
  • Nano-hybrid composites polished to a surface roughness of Ra=0.37 μm, outperforming hybrid and micro-hybrid types.
  • The study utilized in vitro methods with 90 resin composite specimens divided into nine groups for analysis.
  • Results suggest that while polishing reduces roughness, no significant difference exists between the two pastes.
