Resin-based dental restorative materials are extensively used today in dentistry. However,
significant concerns still remain regarding their biocompatibility. For this reason, significant …

Photopolymerization is a widely explored technology that has recently been recognized to
have also great potentialities in the biomedical field. This paper aims to provide a general …

OBJECTIVES: The purpose of this study was to compare the inorganic fraction and the
mechanical properties of three nanofilled composites with four universal hybrid and two …

Objective Since bulk-fill (BF) resin composites should cure efficiently to a depth up to 4 mm,
the aim of the study was to determine the time-dependence of degree of conversion (DC) at …

The purpose was to investigate the influence of curing devices and curing times on the
yellow value (b‐value) of composites, ormocers and compomers after performing a suntest …

Objectives: This study was conducted to determine the effect of modest external heating on
the photopolymerization kinetics and conversion of commercial dental composite restorative …

Objective: The aim of this study was to evaluate the degree of conversion and hardness of
different composite resins, photo-activated for 40 s with two different light guide tips, fiber …

This in vitro study compared the depth of cure obtained with six quartz tungsten halogen and
light-emitting diode curing units at different exposure times and light tip-resin composite …

summary The clinical performance of light polymerized resin‐based composites (RBCs) is
greatly influenced by the quality of the light curing unit (LCU). A commonly used unit for …

This study determined the effect of using five resin composites and two irradiation distances
to test the performance of dental curing lights. Three types of curing lights with similar …
