PURPOSE: To investigate the effect of bleaching and staining solutions on roughness and shade changes in a nanofilled resin composite [Filtek Supreme (FS)]. METHODS: FS specimens (n = 135) were light cured and separated into groups (n = 45) that were bleached with 10% carbamide peroxide (CP) agent or 16% or 35% hydrogen peroxide (HP). In the first two groups the bleaching gel was used for 4 hours a day, during 14 days, and for the third group in three sessions of 45 minutes. Each group was subdivided (n = 15) and immersed in coffee, red wine or distilled water for 3 hours a day during 40 days. The roughness values (Ra) and shade (parameter CLELab) were evaluated at baseline, after bleaching and after staining. The data was analyzed by ANOVA and Tukey test or Kruskal Wallis. RESULTS: The effects on specimens varied depending on the bleaching product and staining solution. FS after bleaching and after staining presented higher roughness. In the evaluation of shade changes after bleaching, it was observed that resin color changed and that 35% hydrogen peroxide bleached the resin more than the others. After staining in three solutions, all specimens changed color and wine showed the higher staining capacity.
