Description
Summary:The aim of the current study was to evaluate the effect of simulated gastric acid on the color and translucency of different indirect restorative materials. A total of 36 disc-shaped samples were cut by using an isomet saw and divided into four equal groups (n = 9) according to the material type: Group Z: translucent zirconia (Ceramill® Zolid ht. preshade, Amann Girrbach, Koblach, Austria); Group E: lithium disilicate (IPS e.max CAD, Ivoclar Vivadent AG, Schaan, Liechtenstein); Group C: resin nanoceramic (Cerasmart, GC, Tokyo, Japan); Group P: polyether ether ketone (PEEK) (Bettin Zirconia Dentale Italy) veneered with indirect high impact polymer composite (HIPC) (breCAM HIPC, Bredent GmbH & Co. KG, Germany). The samples were immersed in simulated gastric acid (HCl, pH 1.2) for 96 hours at 37 °C in an incubator. The color change (ΔE ) and translucency (RTP ) were measured every 9.6 hours (one-year clinical simulation) of immersion in simulated gastric acid. For color change (∆E ) and translucency (RTP ) among the tested materials, there was a highly statistically significant difference (P
