The goal of this work is to understand how the processing of motion under the conditions created by blowing snow causes drivers to fail to detect that they are approaching a vehicle ahead. Color was examined under blowing snow conditions to assess whether an equiluminant (equal brightness) situation was created. In this situation, contrast in light level is not detected but differences in color...

background and aims. the aim of the present study was to compare the efficacy of quartz tungsten halogen (qth) and light emitting diode (led) curing lights on polymerization of resin composite. materials and methods. a hybrid resin composite was used to prepare samples which were cured using two qth and ten led light curing sources. twelve groups, each containing ten samples, were prepared usin...

PURPOSE To evaluate the curing depth and compressive strength of dental composite using halogen light curing unit and light emitting diode light curing unit. MATERIALS AND METHODS Eighty cylindrical composite specimens were prepared using posterior composite P60(3M). Forty specimens, out of which 20 samples (group A) cured with halogen light and 20 samples (group B) cured using light emitting...

Dental chair lights have been known to rapidly polymerize lightcured composites beyond the point of workability. Often in our dental clinics we are advised to switch off the dental chair light while light curing of dental composites. The purpose of this study was to determine whether the dental chair light causes any effect on the degree of polymerization of light cured composites using the qua...
