The purpose of this study was to investigate the influence of the color of positioning guides on the CIEL*a*b* color coordinates of ceramic, resin composite and bovine tooth surfaces measured by a clinical spectrophotometer. Positioning guides (n=10) in different colors (translucent, purple, yellow, green and, blue) were made for each surface (ceramic, resin composite and bovine tooth). The CIEL*a*b* color coordinates were measured with the positioning guides and with no positioning guide (control group).

The walking bleach technique involves sealing the bleaching agent in the pulp chamber. In the inside/outside technique, a low-concentration bleaching agent is applied at home using a custom tray.

View Article and Find Full Text PDFStatement Of Problem: Layered composite resins may adequately mask discolored substrates. However, whether color changes that occur over time affect masking ability is unclear.
Purpose: The purpose of this in vitro study was to investigate the effect of layering and water aging on the masking ability of 2 composite resins.
Objective: To map the existing evidence regarding the masking ability of resin composites.
