Effect of dental headlights spectrum on the polymerization and working time of light-cured resin composites
Journal of Clinical and Experimental DentistryMateus-Garcia Rocha, et. al
2022-05-23
Background: The use of dental headlights is a common practice to better illuminate the operatory field and achieve
excellence in restorative dentistry. However, visible light-cured dental materials can have reduced working time
under headlight illumination. The aim of this study was to evaluate the influence of the spectral irradiance power of
two dental headlights on the degree of polymerization and working time of light-curable dental composites.
Influence of Er:YAG laser irradiation settings on dentin-adhesive interfacial ultramorphology and dentin bond strength
Microscopy Research & TechniquePaulo Moreira Vermelho, et. al
2022-05-12
This study evaluated the effects of Erbium-doped yttrium aluminium garnet (Er:YAG) laser settings and dentin bonding agents on ultramorphological characteristics of resin–laser–irradiated dentin interfaces and dentin bond strength (BS) of these adhesive systems. Additionally, dentin depth affected by Er:YAG laser irradiations was measured. The experiments were performed on occlusal dentin surfaces of third molars that were flattened with 600-grit SiC sandpaper.
