Popis: Objective: This study aimed to compare the surface microhardness of a nanohybrid and a microhybrid resin composite light-cured at two different distances.Methods: A total of 40 disc specimens were prepared for this in vitro experiment; 20 from a nanohybrid composite resin (Filtek P60; 3M ESPE) and 20 from a microhybrid composite resin (Filtek Z250; 3M ESPE). Each group was divided into two equal subgroups (n=10), based on the distance between the light-curing device and the composite surface (either 2 or 4 mm). After 24 hours of curing, the teeth underwent the microhardness test to determine the Vickers hardness number (VHN) at the surface. The data were subjected to statistical analysis using a two-way analysis of variance (ANOVA) at the significance level of P
