Abstract

Introduction: Composite polymerization is a polymer molecule formation from monomeric molecules. To obtain good physical and mechanical properties of composite resin restoration, the dental composite resin must have the possibility of an optimal quantity of its monomer converted to the polymer during the polymerization reaction. The type, size, and content of the fillers in the composite are also essential factors in the polymerization process. A hardness test can be used to indirectly measure the hardness ratio of the upper and lower surfaces of the composite material (relative curing degree). The objective of this study was to analyze the differences in the hardness ratio of the upper and lower surface between LED-activated hybrid composite resin and nano composite resin. Methods: Thirty composite resin samples were randomly selected and divided into 2 groups. Group I was the hybrid composite resin group and Group II was the nano composite resin group. Samples were then formed into discs with a diameter of 6mm and a thickness of 2mm and polymerized using LCU LED with a light intensity of 800 mW/cm2 for 20 seconds. After 24 hours, the upper and lower surfaces of each sample were tested for three testing points using Vickers Hardness Tester. The data were then analyzed using the t-test. Results: The hardness ratio between the upper and lower surfaces (relative curing degree) of the hybrid composite resin and nano composite resin was 0.93 and 0.88 consecutively. Conclusion: There is any difference between the upper and lower surface hardness ratio of LED-activated hybrid composite resin and nano composite resin.

Abstract

Introduction: Composite resin has been used as a restoration material for quite a long time. Two different methods were expected to show result of which method that would be the most promising. Aim of study is to analyzed differences the hardness of one composite resin subjected to two post curing treatments. Methods: This study was a true experimental research (in vitro). The subjects were 30 specimens of the hybrid light cured resin composites made in a mold (6 mm diameter and 4 mm high). The hardness of all specimens were tested using Rebound Hardness Tester. Data were compared using ANOVA and post hoc analysis (for pairwise independent groups) using t-tests. Results: This study showed that post curing treatment by heat (for 10 min at 110 oC ) showed higher hardness (p<0.005). Conclusion: There was difference of hardness between two methods of post curing. Moreover, post curing with dry heat sterilizer at 110oC for 10 min was found to be the most promising post curing method.

Abstract

Introduction: Nanofilled composite resins and resin hybrid composites are often used for the manufacture of composite indirect restorations because it has the addition of filler to add strength materials. This study aimed to compare the compressive strength of composites and composite hybrid nanofilled after post curing using light box. Methods: The research conducted was experimental research, with samples divided into two groups of each 10 specimens of hybrid composite resin and nanofilled. Composite cylindrical diameter of 3mm and 6mm high in post-curing for 180 seconds using a light box compressive strength test was then performed using a Lloyd Instruments LRX Plus, 1 mm/mnt speed. Results: The results were the average compressive strength of post-curing hybrid composites 234.61 MPa higher than the average post-curing composite nanofilled that was 196.60 MPa. Conclusion: the compressive strength of hybrid composite after post curing with light box is greater than the nanofilled composite.
