| pubmed-article:3463719 | pubmed:abstractText | Measurements were made, using an acoustic transmission method, of the setting times of three visible-light curing sealants (two filled, one unfilled). Five commercially available visible-light polymerizing sources were tested with each material. Only three of the light sources gave setting times not significantly different from the manufacturers' recommended times for all three materials tested. The variation in microhardness with depth of sealant was measured to study the depth of polymerization of the sealants, all of which were adequate. The filled sealants had microhardness values greater than the unfilled sealant, at all depths studied. | lld:pubmed |
