Surface Roughness of Class V Restorations.

      Аннотация: With the advent of new adhesive materials and ease of their application, the demand for non-metal dental restorations has grown considerably in class V cavities. The various factors that significantly influence the success rate of class V restoration include tooth location, stressful occlusion, and type of restorative material, marginal adaptation and the age of the patient.Sonic and ultrasonic scaling have become the most widely used methods among dental surgeons, and oral hygienist, due to the decreased time requirement and ease of application in comparison with hand instrumentation. This ex vivo study was conducted to measure the surface roughness on tooth colored class V restorative materials before and after ultrasonic scaling using a surface roughness tester.
