Abstract

The effect of one-year aging on roughness and hardness of microhybrid composites was investigated. Z250 (3M ESPE) and Charisma (Heraeus Kulzer) were tested. Specimens were stored in distilled water at 37 °C for 24 hours, 6 months or 1 year. Knoop hardness indentations were performed on surface and subsurface (1 mm deep). Data were submitted to three-way ANOVA and Tukey’s test (p ≤ 0.05). Surface roughness (Ra, μm) was measured at 24 hours, 6 months and 1 year. Data were submitted to Repeated Measures ANOVA and Tukey’s test (p ≤ 0.05). Surface hardness ranged from 55.0 to 48.6 and 44.0 for Z250, and from 49.8 to 40.7 and 39.5 for Charisma, at 24 hours, 6 months and 1 year, respectively. Subsurface hardness ranged from 57.8 to 60.9 and 54.2 for Z250, and from 50.4 to 54.3 and 50.7 for Charisma, at 24 hours, 6 months and 1 year. After 6 months, both composites presented softer surfaces (p < 0.01). When comparing 6-month and 1-year, only Z250 showed a decrease in hardness (p < 0.05). For the subsurface, a decrease in hardness after 1 year was observed (p < 0.05). Generally, hardness at the subsurface was higher than surface hardness (p < 0.01), and Z250 was harder than Charisma (p < 0.01). Roughness ranged from 0.53 to 0.52 and 0.52 for Z250, and from 0.52 to 0.56 and 0.56 for Charisma, at 24 hours, 6 months and 1 year, with no significant differences among the materials (p = 0.231).

Resumo

O efeito do envelhecimento por um ano na rugosidade e dureza de compósitos micro-híbridos foi investigado. Z250 (3M ESPE) e Charisma (Heraeus Kulzer) foram testados. Espécimes foram armazenados em água destilada a 37 °C por 24 horas, 6 meses ou 1 ano. Endentações de dureza Knoop foram feitas na superfície e subsuperfície (1 mm). Os dados foram submetidos à ANOVA e teste de Tukey (p ≤ 0,05). A rugosidade da superfície (Ra, μm) foi mensurada em 24 horas, 6 meses e 1 ano. Os dados foram submetidos à ANOVA de Medidas Repetidas e teste de Tukey (p ≤ 0,05). A dureza superficial variou de 55,0 para 48,6 e 44,0 para Z250, e de 49,8 para 40,7 e 39,5 para Charisma, em 24 horas, 6 meses e 1 ano, respectivamente. A dureza da subsuperfície variou de 57,8 para 60,9 e de 54,2 para Z250, e de 50,4 para 54,3 e 50,7 para Charisma. Depois de 6 meses, os compósitos apresentaram menor dureza superficial (p < 0,01). Comparando 6 meses e 1 ano, apenas Z250 mostrou menor dureza (p < 0,05). Para a subsuperfície, foi observada diminuição na dureza após 1 ano (p < 0,05). Em geral, a dureza na subsuperfície foi maior que na superfície (p < 0,01), e Z250 foi mais dura que Charisma (p < 0,01). A rugosidade variou de 0,53 para 0,52 e 0,52 para Z250, e de 0,52 para 0,56 e 0,56 para Charisma, em 24 horas, 6 meses e 1 ano, sem diferenças significativas entre os materiais (p = 0,231).
