title: Color stability of three composite resins used in the inlay/onlay technique.
abstract: The color stability of three composite resins used in the inlay/onlay technique was determined by means of irradiation with UV-light and by water storage. Generally, water storage resulted in greater changes in color than did UV-light, but no correlation was found between the results of the two chromogenic procedures. The microfilled composite resin was the least color stable material, but none of the resins had alarmingly low color stability.
