Abstract
PURPOSE: Color of 11 provisional restorative materials (4 acrylic resins and 7 resin composites) was evaluated by reflection spectrophotometry immediately after fabrication, after aging for 15 kJ/m(2), and after aging for 60 kJ/m(2) to determine relative color stability under experimental aging conditions. MATERIALS AND METHODS: Specimens of provisional restorative materials were polymerized according to manufacturers' instructions and aged in an artificial aging chamber with exposure to a total ultraviolet irradiation of 60 kJ/m(2) in increments of 15 kJ/m(2). Color was measured by CIE L*a*b* on a reflection spectrophotometer before and after aging. Color change (Delta E*) was calculated and analyzed statistically by analysis of variance with repeated measures after 15 and 60 kJ/m(2) intervals of aging. RESULTS: Statistically significant changes in color were observed after accelerated aging at both the initial and final aging intervals. Five of the 11 provisional materials tested showed perceptible color change (Delta E* from 3.6 to 9.3) after accelerated aging of 15 kJ/m(2). Seven of the 11 provisional materials tested showed perceptible color change (Delta E* from 3.4 to 9.4) after accelerated aging of 60 kJ/m(2). CONCLUSIONS: Clinically perceptible color changes (Delta E* Delta 3.3) can be expected in some acrylic resin and composite resin provisional materials after accelerated aging.
