[Surface polishing of anterior composites]

In this research it has been valued at SEM the smoothness degree of the surface obtained in vitro on three kinds of composite resins for anterior restorations (Lumifor, Silux, Pekalux). The surface has been polished and finished with abrasive disks (Sof Lex Pop On XT). The composite resin Lumifor presents at SEM a good finished surface. Far better results have been obtained with the microfilled composite resins Silux and Pekalux, which show at SEM surfaces perfectly polished and homogeneous.
