In Vitro Assessment of Color Stability Of Ceramic Veneers With Two Thicknesses, Cemented With Three Different Luting Resins

Abstract

Continuous seek for better esthetic appearance is the motive for development of ceramic veneers. And as a primary factor for the success of veneer restorations is proper choice of cementing material technique, guided also with the ceramic veneer thickness. Three different luting resins: dual cured resin cement, flowable composite resin and light cured resin cements were used in this study to assess color stability before and after thermocycling aging when luting two different thicknesses of ceramic veneers of thicknesses 0.4 mm and 0.7 mm. IPS e.max press was used as the ceramic material of the study. RelyX Ultimate was used as the dual cured resin cement of the study. RelyX Veneer was used as the light cured resin cement, and Filtek Z350 was used as the flowable composite resin.
