Article Title: Food dye staining of dental composites: material variability and mouthwash-induced staining reversibility
doi: 10.2340/biid.v13.45823
Figure Lengend Snippet: Changes in the dental whiteness index (WI D ) of the resin composites OBF, RBF, SPC, CHR, EST, and ULT across the three evaluation periods: baseline (T0), after staining (T1), and after whitening (T2). Each panel represents a single composite, and coloured lines indicate the different staining solutions (Brilliant Blue, Ponceau 4R, Carmoisine, Sunset Yellow, Tartrazin, and Control). Higher WI D values indicate greater perceived whiteness, whereas lower values reflect increased discolouration. CHR: Charisma Smart; EST: Estelite ∑ Quick; OBF: One Bulk Fill Restorative; RBF: RubyFlow; SPC: Spectra STHV; ULT: Ultimate Universal Restorative.
