Abstract
Aim: To evaluate the effect of using two types of flowable resin composites and storage time
on nano-leakage of repaired water aged resin composite.
Materials and Methods: In total, 30 resin composite discs were prepared and stored in distilled
water for 6 m. The discs were then randomly divided into 6 experimental groups (n=5/group)
according to the two experimental factors of the study: Factor 1: Flowable composite, 3 groups
(no-flowable, high-viscosity and low-viscosity flowable composites), and Factor 2; Storage time
after repair, 2 groups (24 h and 6 m). Repair procedures were carried out using universal adhesive
with and without the application of the flowable composite. After repair, half of the specimens were
stored for 24 h and the other half were stored for 6 m in distilled water. After the recommended
storage time, each disc was sectioned into 2 halves and each half was prepared for silver nitrate
staining procedures to evaluate the nano-leakage under SEM. Three photomicrographs were taken
for each half-slab, resulting in 30 photomicrographs/group, which were analyzed using ImageJ
software. Data were evaluated using Kruskal-Wallis/Mann-Whitney test (P=0.05).
Results: The use of flowable composite had no significant effect on nano-leakage (P=0.129),
while storage time showed a statistically significant effect on nano-leakage (P < 0.0001). There was
no statistically significant difference regarding the use of flowable resin composite either at 24 h or
6 m storage times (P > 0.05). There was a statistically significant difference between 24 h and 6 m
storage periods for all experimental variables (P < 0.05).
Conclusion: The two types of flowable composites were not able to prevent the uptake of silver
nitrate at the composite/composite interface either after 24 h or 6 m.
