Effect of tooth brushing on gloss retention and surface roughness of five bulk ‐fill resin composites
ConclusionAfter brushing, the bulk‐fill RBCs were all rougher than the control nano‐filled RBC. The nano‐filled bulk‐fill RBC was the least affected by brushing.
Clinical SignificanceBulk‐fill RBCs lose their gloss faster and become rougher than the nanofilled conventional RBC, Filtek Supreme Ultra. The nanofilled bulk‐fill RBC was the least affected by tooth brushing.
