Influence of the light curing units (Halogen and LED) and thickness of dentin on temperature rise of primary teeth


Abstract in English

This study was performed in order to determine the temperature rise under human dentin discs of different thicknesses of primary teeth during the light curing process with conventional halogen lamp and LED.
