Background Composite resins are extensively used due to their excellent optical and
superior adhesive properties. One innate disadvantage of these materials is that their color
changes over time. Routine oral hygiene practices also has an impact on the surface texture.

Abstract
Background
Composite resins are extensively used due to their excellent optical and superior adhesive properties. One innate disadvantage of these materials is that their color changes over time. Routine oral hygiene practices also has an impact on the surface texture. Improvements in filler technology has helped in combatting these issues. Estelite® α, a supra-nano spherical filled resin composite is one such recently introduced material. Aim of the study: To compare the changes in surface gloss and roughness of three different resin composites following simulated tooth brushing at varying time intervals.
