Evaluating Curing Efficiency of a Second Generation- Light Emitting Diode Curing Unit to Cure two Kinds of Composite Restorative Materials


Abstract in English

This study aimed to investigate curing efficiency of a second generation - light emitting diode(LED) curing unit to polymerise two kinds of resin ,one depends upon camphorquinone as a single photo initiator while the other uses co-initiator besides camphorquinone .
