Effect of Distance on Irradiance and Beam Homogeneity from 4 Light-Emitting Diode Curing Units
By Dr, Richard Price
At the distances examined, ICB varied significantly among the 4 curing lights tested. The curing lights also differed significantly in terms of beam homogeneity, as characterized by top hat factors. The top hat factors were similar for the Fusion and Demi curing lights at all distances, but were lower for the Bluephase 16i and lowest for the FlashLite Magna. At a distance of 8.0 mm, the useful beam diameter for the Bluephase 16i unit was less than 4 mm (2.60 ± 0.08Read more
