Restorative composite resins have clinical prime importance in modern dental practice, but numerous factors influence their prognosis in the oral environment. Their interaction with oral care products, like mouthwashes, is one such factor. This study aimed to evaluate the quantifiable effects of different mouthwashes on the surface properties of the composite resin restorative material.
The method involved formulating 90 samples of nanohybrid composite resins (Medicept Dental India Private Limited, Mumbai, India). The samples were treated with 1% alcohol, without alcohol, and with a saline solution (control). Surface roughness (Ra values) and microhardness had been checked before and after an exposure period of 24 hours. Data were thus tabulated, and from that, average values of surface roughness and microhardness were derived. This data was analyzed using the IBM SPSS Statistics for Windows, V. 26.0 (IBM Corp., Armonk, NY). Analysis of variance (ANOVA) and a t-test were used to compare the means of the variables. The level of significance was fixed at p < 0.05.
The surface roughness value was significantly highest in the ethanol-containing mouthwash-treated samples after 24 hours of exposure (p < 0.05). The microhardness was statistically lower in these samples (p < 0.05).
These research data give quantitative information, however, about the mass effect of mouthwashes on the composite resin restorative material. The presented changes, which were illustrated by the values of surface roughness and microhardness, are drawing attention to the fact that a cautious approach must be taken in the recommendations for oral care in the provision of intensive treatments with restorative composite resins.
修复性复合树脂在现代牙科实践中具有重要的临床意义，但众多因素会影响其在口腔环境中的预后。它们与漱口水等口腔护理产品的相互作用就是其中一个因素。本研究旨在评估不同漱口水对复合树脂修复材料表面性能的可量化影响。
该方法包括制备90个纳米混合复合树脂样本（印度孟买Medicept Dental India私人有限公司）。样本分别用1%酒精、无酒精溶液和生理盐水（对照）处理。在暴露24小时前后检查表面粗糙度（Ra值）和显微硬度。数据制成表格，并由此得出表面粗糙度和显微硬度的平均值。使用IBM SPSS Statistics for Windows，V. 26.0（IBM公司，纽约州阿蒙克）对该数据进行分析。采用方差分析（ANOVA）和t检验比较变量的均值。显著性水平设定为p < 0.05。
暴露24小时后，含乙醇漱口水处理的样本表面粗糙度值显著最高（p < 0.05）。这些样本的显微硬度在统计学上较低（p < 0.05）。
然而，这些研究数据提供了关于漱口水对复合树脂修复材料的总体影响的定量信息。表面粗糙度和显微硬度值所显示的变化提醒人们，在使用修复性复合树脂进行强化治疗时，口腔护理建议必须谨慎。
