Objective To describe the effect of the composites' composition to produce high surface
smoothness/gloss using finishers/polishers, and to assess maintained smoothness/gloss …

A significant problem related to the functioning of resin-based composites for dental fillings
is secondary or recurrent caries, which is the reason for the need for repeated treatment. The …

The purpose of this study was to investigate the effect of final surface treatment and dental
composite type on the roughness of the composite surface, composite/enamel interface, and …

The purpose of this in vitro study is to compare the roughness and gloss of four resin-
modified CAD/CAM ceramics after different surface treatments. Forty-eight specimens (1.20× …

Changes in the organic matrix of composite resins have been proposed to improve their
surface properties. However, polishing systems may perform differently in different materials …

Objective: Finishing and polishing (F/P) of composites is a fundamental step influencing the
clinical service of restorations. The aim of this study was to evaluate the effect of different F/P …

Aim: The purpose of this research was to explore how various finishing and polishing
techniques affect the surface roughness (Ra) and gloss of flowable bulk-fill injectable resin …

Purpose: The pretreatment of glass-ceramic before adhesive cementation can be performed
with hydrofluoric acid (HF)/silanization (S) or with an ammonium polyfluoride-containing …

The adhesion of water to the surfaces of unmanned aerial vehicles (UAVs) adversely affects
the function. The proposed UAVs will have underwater as well as flight capability, and these …

Objective The aim of this in vitro experiment was to see how the operator's manual skills,
polishing equipment, and abrasive materials affected the surface roughness of denture base …
