THE INFLUENCE OF FINISHING PROCESSING FEATURES ON THE POLYMERIZED COMPOSITE SURFACE STRUCTURE

The purpose of this work is to assess the influence, feasibility and effectiveness of glycerin as one of the means that prevent the formation of an oxygen-inhibited layer, to search for the most effective polymerization protocol for the final portion of the composite materialThe prepared carious cavities of the first class were sealed with a composite, then the samples were degreased and dried. Since the dental material is a dielectric material and is highly susceptible to charging under the influence of an electron beam, it was decided to apply a thin (30 nm) layer of platinum to the surface of the objects under study.Studies of the surface of the teeth and the applied composite were carried out using a scanning electron microscope (SEM) Tescan Vega 3 SBH.Based on the essence of the mechanism of formation of the oxygen-inhibited composite layer, polymerization protocols were selected. The samples were divided into 4 groups according to each protocol of finishing processing.Based on the study of the surface of composite restoration using a scanning electron microscope (SEM) Tescan Vega 3 SBH, it is concluded that the most optimal protocol for finishing the restoration is polymerization using means that prevent the formation of an oxygen-inhibited layer, and subsequent finishing treatment. This method allows you to achieve a smooth surface of the composite, the absence of pores and microcracks, high-quality edge fit.
