Objective: The aim of this study was to evaluate the effect of finishing and polishing procedures of compomer and bulk-fill composite resins on cytotoxicity against human gingival fibroblasts by xCELLigence analysis.
Study Design: Filtek™ Bulk Fill composite and Dyract XP compomer were used. After curing, the specimens were randomly divided into two groups and finishing-polishing procedures were applied to one group; no finishing-polishing procedures were applied to the other group. For the first time in this study, pure gold samples were prepared with the same weight and base area as the test specimens and the wells containing the pure gold samples were determined as the control group. xCELLigence system was used to assess the response of the human gingival fibroblasts after exposure to test specimens. Measurements were recorded for 72 hours after adding specimens.
Results: Finishing and polishing procedures caused a significant increase in cell viability of Dyract XP compomer samples at all time periods; the percentage of cell viability reached above 70% after finishing and polishing procedures. However, significant effects were not observed in Filtek™ Bulk Fill composite samples at any time period.
Conclusion: Finishing and polishing procedures play an essential role in increasing the biocompatibility of Dyract XP compomer. It is recommended to apply finishing and polishing procedures even though a smooth surface may be obtained in restorations with matrix strips.

Lubrication is a critical aspect of the metal forming process and it is strongly influenced by the surface texture of the tool-forming surfaces. This study is focused on determining the effect of surface finish and heat treatment on wettability involving commonly used lubrication agents. Three different finishing states are evaluated (as-ground, as-polished and as-nitrided).

The Stability Evaluation of Ceria Slurry Using Polymer Dispersants with Varying Contents for Chemical Mechanical Polishing Process.

The chemical mechanical polishing/planarization (CMP) is essential for achieving the desired surface quality and planarity required for subsequent layers and processing steps. However, the aggregation of slurry particles caused by abrasive materials can lead to scratches, defects, increased surface roughness, degradation the quality and durability of the finished surface after milling processes during the CMP process. In this study, ceria slurry was prepared using polymer dispersant with zinc salt of ethylene acrylic acid (EAA) copolymer at different contents of 5, 6, and 7 wt% (denoted as D5, D6, and D7) to minimize particle aggregation commonly observed in CMP slurries.

Shear-thickening fluid (STF) is widely applied in various practical engineering fields due to its rheological properties of increased viscosity under load. We investigated the integration of STF with fiber brushes to prepare a novel composite material for polishing applications. The impact of composite material properties is studied in surface finish, specifically roughness and morphology, across flat and uneven surfaces.

This study evaluated the influence of six resin composite coating agents on color stability and surface roughness after toothbrushing abrasion. Discs (Ø6 mm x 2 mm) of nanofilled resin composite (Filtek Z350XT) were prepared for application of coating agents (n=10): control (absence), two surface sealants (PermaSeal and BisCover LV), two adhesive systems (Scotchbond Multi-Purpose Adhesive/3M Oral Care and Single Bond Universal), and two modeling liquids (Modeling Resin and Composite Wetting Resin). CIELab*, WID, and color change (ΔEab, ΔE00, and ΔWID) were analyzed at baseline, after finishing and polishing, after application of coating agents, after coffee staining (simulating 30 days and one year of staining), and after toothbrushing abrasion.
