Composite resins are the most preferred dental materials for anterior and posterior teeth. They have an
important role in aesthetic and restorative dentistry. Paramount importance of composite resins are they
have an Optical appearance, glossy surface and colour stability. There are three types of composite resins
Conventional(Packable), Flowable(Bulkfill),Microfill. Hybrid,Fluoride releasing composites. Color change
of composite restoration in different color media during the time is a common problem in esthetic dentistry,
causing the need to replace restoration and spending a great deal of cost and time to patients. The aim of
this study is to present a short review of recent literature available on the association of colour stability of
composite resins. The article was done after reviewing several articles on the colour stability of composite
resins. The effect on colour stability of composite resins depends on type of solution exposure time and
composition of material. In clinical practice, patients should be aware of the staining effects, as staining in
anterior teeth may lead to unaesthetic appearance.
