Tooth color restorative filling materials were heavily investigated for longevity and durability unacceptable color match or staining are the major reasons for replacement of restorations the aim of this study was to evaluate the effect of chlorhexidine mouthwash on color stability of ceramic materials (zirconia, E-Max). Material and methods: A total of 30 specimens of two types of ceramic materials were used; E-MAX and Zirconia the color shade was taken using (easy-shade) devise in Riyadh colleges of dentistry and pharmacy. Afterwards they were immersed in (chlorhexidine gluconate 0.2%) for three periods of time 24 hours - 72 hours- and 7 days. Then they were subjected to color measurement by the same devise again in three periods of time, then all results was subjected to statistical analysis by statistical special program ( SPSS ) version 22 windows. The results showed that the all samples were whiter after exposing to chlorhexidine in two types of ceramic used and in three periods of time.
