Abstract: Focuses on a study which compared the curing efficiency of several commercially available light-emitting diode (LED)-based curing lights with that of a quartz tungsten halogen curing light by means of hardness testing. Advantages of LED technology over halogen lights in curing a microfill resin composite; Results of the testing of curing efficiency; Measurement of power density.
