Objective: The purpose of this study was to evaluate how beverages affected the self-adhesive hybrid pediatric cement's microhardness.
Materials and Methods: Specimens measuring 5 mm in diameter and 2 mm in thickness were fabricated from Surefil one self-adhesive hybrid GIC and subjected to exposure by acidic beverages. The study involved three groups (artificial saliva as control, Cola, Sparkling water with lemon). Samples for Vickers hardness were immersed for 15 minutes daily for 28 days. Then, samples were tested using a Vickers microhardness tester. Statistical analysis involved the use of one-way Anova and post hoc Tucky test at the level of significance of 0.05.
Results: When Surefil One samples were submerged in simulated saliva, their Vickers microhardness significantly decreased. Samples submerged in Cola showed the largest decline, indicating a negative impact on material integrity.
Conclusions: Beverages affected the self-adhesive hybrid pediatric cement's microhardness.
