Karies merupakan masalah kesehatan gigi yang umum
dan sering ditangani dengan perawatan tumpatan. Resin komposit banyak digunakan
karena sifat estetiknya yang memiliki berbagai pilihan warna, namun perbedaan
tingkat warna tersebut dapat memengaruhi sifat mekanis bahan salah satunya
kekerasan. Penelitian ini bertujuan mengetahui apakah terdapat pengaruh tingkat
warna resin komposit packable nanohybrid produk Indonesia terhadap
kekerasan permukaan.
Penelitian menggunakan resin komposit packable
nanohybrid produk Indonesia (Replix Universal) tingkat warna A1, A2, dan A3
dengan sampel berbentuk silinder berdiameter 5 mm dan tinggi 2 mm,
masing-masing terdiri atas enam sampel. Seluruh sampel disinari selama 20 detik
menggunakan light curing unit, kemudian diuji menggunakan Vickers
hardness tester dengan beban 100 gf selama 15 detik. Data dianalisis
menggunakan uji One-Way ANOVA dan dilanjutkan uji Post-Hoc LSD.
Hasil penelitian menunjukkan bahwa terdapat
perbedaan nilai kekerasan permukaan antara tiap tingkat warna. Nilai kekerasan
tertinggi terdapat pada tingkat warna A1, A2, dan terendah pada A3. Hasil uji
statistik menunjukkan bahwa tingkat warna berpengaruh signifikan terhadap
kekerasan permukaan resin komposit (p < 0 name="_Hlk215342364">Universal warna
