Abstract:Aim: This study was performed to determine the temperature rise under human dentin discs of different thicknesses from primary and permanent teeth during the photo-curing process using quartz tungsten halogen (QTH) or light-emitting diode (LED).
Materials and methods: The current experimental study sample consisted of 160 dentin discs of different thicknesses (0.5, 1, 1.5, and 2 mm), of which 80 dentin discs were prepared from sound lower second primary molars, and the remaining 80 dentin discs were… Show more
