Dental Composite Light Curing techniques made super simple !

This video is a part of an ongoing series on Dental Composite material science. The video explains the various light-curing techniques of the composite and its rule in the properties of dental composite. It explains the technique like Ramp, Step, Pulse delay, High Energy pulse in a simple way. Dental Composite is an important topic from Dental Material and Operative Dentistry. Easy dentistry at Aspire32 helps grasp such topics of Dentistry in the simplest possible way for dental students and dentists.
This video of Aspire 32 is made by Dr. Suresh Shenvi who has cleared various exams like ADAT, NBDE from the USA, DHA from Dubai, and various Indian Entrance exams like PGI, KCET, NEET. I am MDS in Conservative Dentistry and Endodontics by profession. I am also an author of dental books on the entrance exam and I am also currently a faculty at KLE University and a receiver of best teacher award.

None can explain better than this. Pls clear one of my many doubts. Always in the anteriors class 3 or 4 seen patients coming debonded resin where always curing won't be of much problem. The problem always happen that cured resin gets debonded . Please throw light on that to ensure good bonding of resin to tooth structure irrespective of following correct protocol. Any extra tips or nuance to be more success to stand apart..

[@Aspire32]

There are many reasons. -Improve isolation. -Check if your curing light has proper energy output. - use good quality composite and Binding agent. - use total etch technique for Bonding to enamel. Check my video on Dentin Bonding agent for understanding Bonding

This is well-described for the layman!

Thanks for the appreciation :)

Hope so :)

Nicely explained sir....Easy to understand :)

Thank you :)

Sir please do a video on properties of dental materials... I badly want it to finally make sense

[@anshikaagarwal6009]

well explained

Thank.you :)

[@bhargavi368]

Wow!! At last u gave a great insight about this topic... I was so much puzzled about this sir.. Thank u so much I'm now very clear regarding this Sir one query? Which one do u prefer or use in ur practice Is it continuous if so then uniform continuous or ramp If discontinuous then it's pulse delay?! Just to know which is practically applicable as u said everyone uses uniform continuous.... Other than this which u prefer sir??!!!!

[@Aspire32]

I use continuous

Nice

Thank you ;)

[@buraqabdul67]

Sir would there be a special light cure device that make pulse decay curing than increases intensity automatically and what it's brand or name?? Is the best way pulse decay curing or the continuous curing..

[@Aspire32]

Yes. Most of the good curing lights have that mode. Where do you practice?

[@buraqabdul67]

I am a fifth year (stagiaire) from Iraq and we mostly do the continuous light curing technique I think it's a step tachnique may be.. Thanx for those lovely informations doc..

[@Aspire32]

We too use the continuous mode often..

[@brindhaloganathan791]

Thank you for sharing sir.. Really helped in understanding better. Sir.. I also have a doubt about 1sec,3 sec curing in latest LED curing lights. Can you help me clear this doubt. Thank you

[@Aspire32]

Yes. Thats a valid question. The answer is in this video. kzbin.info/www/bejne/rqDbdKuEjbOjpMU. If you still have the doubt then do let me know :)

Can you please upload a video on different cavity preparation?

Sir thanks so much i am from pakistan videos are really helpful

Thank you for leaving appreciation post :) Happy that my channel has viewers from Pakistan too :)

[@tchaney3777]

So if you have a class where it is a very deep cavity but no issue with the pulp, would you do small layers and build it up? I suppose that depends on the composite and material involved, such as a bulk fill. I’m bored so I’m learning. Pardon me.

[@Aspire32]

It depends on multiple factors. There are specific indications for different restoration. For example deep cavity but small size can still survive with composite with pulp capping but shallow cavity with wide prepration we may beed different restoration

[@lisapizza121997]

Sir will the light attached to dental chair unit affect the curing of composite? If so will it be a type of low intensity light source?

[@Aspire32]

Yes. It can affect. The research says that when you are placing the composite and adapting its better to switch off the light. And when curing its actually beneficial to switch on the light. Here is a good article. pdfs.semanticscholar.org/2054/ce841b6e4a2bcd2f259be38662cf921f9bfc.pdf

Is there a video about light cure types d c b and how to tell which is better

[@Aspire32]

No. Currently no video about that

[@drshkarhussein3043]

I think RAMP technique is the best option, what do you think ?

[@Aspire32]

Yes. Agree with jt

[@dr.jaychandel4054]

how to check proper energy output of curing light .plz throw some light

[@Aspire32]

Its done by using radiometer to check the energy outputs of the light.

[@hpshah15990]

Sir, when I checked the intensity with radiometer by touching curing tip on the device, it showed 500-600 mw/cm2.. I read somewhere that total intensity required for curing composite is 16000 mw/cm2 , so to achieve that 500 mw/cm2*30 sec= 15000 mw/cm2 (approx) is required for curing. But, as I increase the distance of the tip from radiometer, the intensity drops to 150-200, at 5-6 mm distance. So, clinically in deep/subgingival cavity, where distance of curing tip to composite is even 8-10 mm sometimes, how can one assure of good curing?

[@Aspire32]

Light transmitting wedges can be used. Curing through the light can be done. There is a instrument from tdv which can be put in proximal box which transmits curing light deeper. Check it out

[@hpshah15990]

@@Aspire32 sir, thank you for your quick reply. I googled the instrument, found it interesting. But, sir, still the intensity (energy) available at such depth won't be insufficient? I try to compensate with increasing the curing time to 1 min. And curing it from buccal/lingual side also. Does increasing the curing time compensate for very low energy around 100 mw/cm2?

[@Aspire32]

@@hpshah15990 There are better curing lights which claim to have greater penetration. You can also check bioclear matrix
