OBJECTIVES: This work aims to review the key factors affecting the polymerization efficiency
of light-activated resin-based composites. The different properties and methods used to …

For improved interstudy reproducibility, reduced risk of premature failures, and ultimately
better patient care, researchers and dentists need to know how to accurately characterize …

Light curing in dentistry has truly revolutionized the practice of this art and science. With the
exception bonding to tooth structure, there is perhaps no single advancement that has …

OBJECTIVES: To test the influence of photoinitiator type and filler particle inclusion on the
validity of exposure reciprocity law. MATERIALS AND METHODS: 50/50wt% Bis …

Objectives The purpose of this study was to investigate the effect of high-irradiance light-
curing-units (LCUs) on the depth-of-cure (DoC) and degree-of-polymerization (DoP) of bulk …

Objective To demonstrate the effect of localized irradiance and spectral distribution
inhomogeneities of one LED-based dental light-curing unit (LCU) on the corresponding …

The current paper reviews the curing mechanisms found in resin‐based materials used in
dentistry. Historical aspects of dental products and the associated curing mechanisms are …

Objective To measure the localised irradiance and wavelength distributions from dental light
curing units (LCUs) and establish a method to characterise their output. Methods Using a …

Problem: Previous studies identified nonuniformity in the irradiance at the tip end of a variety
of dental light‐curing units (LCUs) and correlated those differences with potential clinical …
