The effect of different polishing system on the surface roughness of composite materials

The search for an ideal polishing agent for dental composite is ongoing. Several polishing tools have been used over the years ranging from multiple step system using fine and super fine diamond finishing burs, abrasive disks, diamond and silicon impregnated soft rubber cups, to one step polishing s...

Description
Summary:The search for an ideal polishing agent for dental composite is ongoing. Several polishing tools have been used over the years ranging from multiple step system using fine and super fine diamond finishing burs, abrasive disks, diamond and silicon impregnated soft rubber cups, to one step polishing system. The present study evaluates two polishing system i.e SofLex (multistep polishing system) and PoGo (single-step polishing system) on a composite material namely Filtek Z-100.
