The effects of a carbonated beverage on the optical properties and microhardness of preheated bulk-fill composite resin restorations
Although the preheating of high-viscosity bulk-fill composites significantly improved their microhardness and improved the surface gloss of FOB, it did not protect both composites against the Cola drink attack. Preheated FOB showed improved color stability after the Cola immersion, but not to a clinically acceptable limit.
