A Study on the Color Stability of Temporary Resins according to Polymerizing Methods and Staining

온성 방법에 따른 수종의 임시 수복용 레진의 착색시의 색 안정성에 관한 연구

Dental temporary resin should have adequate strength and similar esthetics as natural teeth. Recently esthetics has become a high priority in clinical dentistry. Thus the evaluation of color stability of dental temporary resin has become an important part in dental research. The purpose of this study was to evaluate the difference in color stability of 3 resins($Snap^{(R)}$, Temporary bridge $resin^{(R)}$, Trim $II^{(R)}$) according to polymerizing methods and stainning. The resins were divided into groups by 2 types of polymerizing methods ( air or pressure and heat curing) The resins were dyed with coffee, chlorhexidine and artificial saliva and then the color stability was evaluated with a spectrophotometer(CM-503i, Minolta, Japan). The results were as follows ; 1. In the color stability according to polymerizing method, pressure and heat polymerizing method was higher than air polymerizing method. 2. The color stability according to staining fluid decreased in the order of I, II, III group, there was significant difference among the groups of staining fluid. 3. The color stability according to resins decreased in the order of $Snap^{(R)}$, Trim $II^{(R)}$, Temporary Bridge $resin^{(R)}$, The $Snap^{(R)}$ resin was highest color stability, there was significant difference among the 3 resins.
