Light curing. Are all LED light devices the same?

Lucas Silveira Machado e Rodolfo Bruniera Anchieta

In this edition of the Highlights section, we will address a fundamentally important topic about adhesive and restorative procedures sucess, the Photopolymerization. We are a dependent “LED” generation, since most of the procedures that we commonly perform, regardless of the clinical area, depends on some type of light source for the polymerization of materials. In this way, knowledge about this polymerization process is essential to ensure the safety and longevity of our procedures. For a long time, it was common to discuss through evidence regarding more common issues such as adhesion, composite resin and cementation.
