In Vitro Comparison of Microhardness of Bulk Fill Flowable Composites

Objectives: The aim of this study was to evaluate micro hardness of three flowable bulk fill resin composites. Materials and methods: Surefil SDR Flow (SDR), Filtek Bulk Flow (FBF) and X-tra Base Flow (XBF) were used. 16 teflon molds were prepared for each group. The microhardness was measured on the top surfaces. The microhardness results were analyzed by ANOVA and Post Hoc Tukey test. Results: Microhardness values differ from 22.79-33.1. XTB were found having the highest hardness and FBF had minimum hardness value. Conclusions: Accordingly, the results of the current study indicate, it can be suggested that, XTB, SDR and XTB in clinical cases respectively. Keywords: Bulk fill flowable
