  Aim and Objective: This study determined the effect of home bleaching agents on the surface roughness and fracture toughness of composite resin materials. Methodology: 70 specimen of nanohybrid resin composite (Filtex supreme plus (Z 350) and Esthet x) were exposed to two home bleaching gels (10% and 20% carbamide peroxide CP) were prepared. Thirty five specimen of each group were fabricated randomly divided into 6 subgroup as follows: Group 1 Filtex supreme plus (Z 350) (N=35):Subgroup 1 (n=5)-control group (distilled water), subgroup 2 (n=15)-treated with 10% CP, subgroup 3 (n=15)-treated with 20% CP. Group 2 Esthet x (n=35): subgroup 1 (n=5)-control group ( distilled water), subgroup 2 (n=15)-treated with 10% CP, subgroup 3 (n=15)-treated with 20% CP for 8 hrs/day. All treatment was conducted at room tempera.. View More»
