Abstract
AIM: The aim of the present study was to determine the effects of immersion time and 10% carbamide peroxide treatment using a Hertzian indentation test after placing resin-based cements into 37°C distilled water, with and without 10% carbamide peroxide.METHODS: Disc-shaped specimens (10-mm diameter × 1-mm thick), were prepared from five resin-based cements; seT PP, Maxcem Elite, RelyX Unicem, Panavia F, and G-Cem. The specimens of each material were randomly divided into three groups of six. The study groups were bleached with 10% carbamide peroxide on one surface for 21 days for 2 h per day. Two control groups were kept in distilled water for either 24 h or 21 days. A load was applied to th..
