Background: The literature on the effect of bleaching on stainability and color stability of any composites is scarce and controversial. In the case of some composites and/or bleaching agents or staining solutions, there is no previous study. Therefore, this rather large study was conducted for the first time to examine simultaneously the effects of bleaching and 3 staining solutions on 3 composite types.
Materials and Methods: This 3-phase experimental in vitro study was performed on 18 groups of 5 specimens each: 90 composite discs with 10 mm diameter and 1 mm thickness were fabricated from 3 resin composites (microhybrid, nanohybrid, and nanofilled). Forty-five discs underwent bleaching with 15% carbamide peroxide, and the remaining 45 were immersed in distilled water at room temperature. The color assessment was performed before and after this step, and Δa, Δb, and ΔL color parameters were calculated for each specimen. The specimens were then immersed in coffee, cola, and red grape juice for 2 weeks, and underwent colorimetry again. The simultaneous effects of bleaching and staining agents and composite types on ΔE (color changes) of composite specimens were analyzed using an independent-samples t-test, a Mann–Whitney U-test, and two-way and one-way analysis of variances followed by a Tukey and a Dunnett's T3 tests (α = 0.05).
Results: Bleaching had no significant effect on color changes of microhybrid, nanohybrid, or nanofilled composites (P > 0.05). The stainability of composites did not increase after bleaching (P > 0.05). Regardless of the composite type and the presence of bleaching, coffee had the worst effect on color of composite specimens, while cola had the smallest staining effect (P < 0.05).
Conclusion: Stainability of microhybrid/nanohybrid/nanofilled composites did not increase after bleaching with 15% carbamide peroxide. Coffee should be consumed with care, as far as composite coloring is a concern, regardless of the type of composite in use or its bleaching history. Cola was the weakest stainer. Coffee always caused perceptible staining (ΔE >3.7), regardless of the composite in use or its bleaching history. Red grape juice caused such perceptible colorations in most cases. Cola did not cause any perceptible discoloration in most cases.
