Demonstrates bleaching effects on color stability of bulk-fill composites immersed in beverages, indicating implications for dental aesthetics.
and ΔL. SEM revealed influence of cycling on composites' surface, but DC did not determine their staining resistance. In-office bleaching compromised bulk-fill composite color stability, with Aura and Opus showing unacceptable changes, whereas Filtek One and Z350XT remained acceptable. Staining challenges altered Opus stability, and coffee immersion affected colorimetric outcomes across all composites after bleaching.
