Abstract
The improved experimental reliability combined with the increased clinical relevance in specimen geometry of disc-compared with bar-shaped specimens may advocate bi-axial flexure testing methodology as the standard to assess the strength of light-activated dental RBCs. The differences in extent of polymerization of RBC specimens cured with either LCU were not consistent with an equivalent dose of light energy density. This phenomenon may be attributed to differences in polymerization efficiency associated with the quantity of useful light energy emitted from the handheld- compared with the oven-LCU.
