Key Points

This research aims to assess how different surface treatments influence the color stability and mechanical properties of lithium-x-silicate ceramics.
Three types of pressed lithium-X-silicate ceramics were evaluated: IPS e.max Press, Celtra Press, and HS10PC.
132 specimens prepared (22 bars and 22 discs per material) with glazed and ground–polished subgroups (n=11).
Color change measured using a spectrophotometer after 14-day coffee immersion; Vickers hardness, flexural strength assessed, and surface morphology examined with SEM.
Surface treatment significantly affected color change (ΔE2000) and hardness (p<0.05).
Vickers hardness and flexural strength values varied considerably among different ceramic types due to surface treatment effects.
Ground–polished specimens exhibited greater staining susceptibility compared to glazed specimens.
