The effect of various polishing systems on the surface roughness of composite resins

OBJECTIVE: The aim of this in vitro study was to evaluate the effect of three finishing and polishing systems on the surface roughness of nano-manufactured composite resins. MATERIALS AND METHOD: Nano-ceramic Ceram-X (Dentsply DeTrey, Konstanz, Germany), nano-filled Premise (Kerr Corporation, Ora...

Dentsply Caulk). The sample surface roughness values (Ra) were determined using a profilometer
and the surfaces were observed under a scanning electron microscope. Data were analyzed using the Kruskal-Wallis test. RESULTS: No statistically significant differences in surface roughness were detected among the finishing and polishing systems (p>0.05). However
