Hm.....what if you use 1 second light for 3/ 5 times.....allso, from diferent angels. Sure, with few seconds of pause...cos, we do not wish to burn the nerv?!? Is it still so bad...ore become a winer? Allso, G4 have to small aperture/ 8mm....and can not cower biger area,which will cose a problems with ununique polimerisatione.
Well, it all depends on the light output. Let's say you use a light that delivers 1,500 mW/cm2 for 10s. Then you will deliver 15 J/cm2 of energy. If your light delivers 3,000 mW/cm2 then you would have to use it for at least 5 s to deliver the same amount of energy. Unfortunately, dental composites do not obey exposure reciprocity, so you actually have to deliver more energy as the irradiance goes up. Start curing from angles, even less energy is delivered. Simple physics and simple chemistry. Sorry to burst the bubble on fast curing.
Dear Dr. Price, I saw You at Ivoclar Symposium, a few weeks ago. Thanks for sharing years of experience and scientific evidence. Kind regards!
Stay tuned for more videos. Hope they help.
Where can I buy the mold to do tests?
I have a question dr
