ABSTRACT
STATEMENT OF PROBLEM:
Information on the illuminant metameric effects on the intrabrand and interbrand differences in color of direct composite resins is lacking.PURPOSE:
The purpose of this in vitro study was to evaluate the effects of different illuminations on the color differences of the same or different brands of composite resins. MATERIAL ANDMETHODS:
Sixty-four disks were prepared from 8 different direct dental composite resins of A3 shade, and, after polymerization and hydration for 48 hours, their color coordinates were measured in the Commission Internationale de I'Eclairage (CIE) L∗a∗b∗ color space with a portable colorimeter on a black and white background under D65 (daylight), F2 (cool white fluorescence), and A (incandescence) illuminations. Translucency parameters (TP) and fluorescence intensities (FI) of the brands were also measured to assist in the interpretation of brand behavior under the illuminations. The Kruskal-Wallis and Friedman nonparametric tests with post hoc multiple comparisons tests were applied to analyze the data for differences within and between brands under all illuminations (α=.05), while regression analysis was used to estimate the relationship between D65 and F2 or A illumination data.RESULTS:
Statistical analysis showed significant differences among brands (P<.05) for all color coordinates under all illuminations, with a strong linear relationship between them (R2=0.72-0.97). Intrabrand differences were significantly different across brands (P<.05) and ranged from 0.06 to 3.1 across illuminations in ΔE∗ab units (0.05 to 2.4 in ΔΕ00 units). Interbrand differences were also significantly different (P<.05), with a range of 0.15 to 8.7 ΔE∗ab units or 0.14 to 5.7 ΔΕ00 units.CONCLUSIONS:
Primary color coordinates of composite resins were affected by A or F2 illumination and were strongly associated with D65 values. Redder or yellower composite resins were affected more under A or F2 illumination. Intrabrand differences, although small, may contribute to clinical mismatches under A or F2 illuminations. Clinicians should be aware that certain brand pairs may present acceptable differences under D65 illumination but could become unacceptable under A or F2 illumination.
