What factors affect the depth of cure of light-cured composite resin?
What factors affect the depth of cure of light-cured composite resin?
- Composite color, light intensity, and exposure time
- Composite color, exposure time, and light-curing tip size
- Light intensity, exposure time, and distance between light-curing tip & composite surface (correct)
- Distance between light-curing tip & composite surface, composite color, and light intensity
What are the advantages of composite resin over glass ionomer?
What are the advantages of composite resin over glass ionomer?
- Lower cost, faster setting & better esthetics, and higher filler loading
- Higher mechanical properties, faster setting & better esthetics, and better biocompatibility
- Higher mechanical properties, very low solubility, and better biocompatibility
- Higher mechanical properties, very low solubility, faster setting & better esthetics (correct)
What is the difference between macro-filled and micro-filled composite resin?
What is the difference between macro-filled and micro-filled composite resin?
- Macro-filled has a higher filler loading, while micro-filled has a lower filler loading
- Macro-filled has a smooth surface & better esthetics, while micro-filled has a rough surface
- Macro-filled has a lower filler loading, while micro-filled has a higher filler loading
- Macro-filled has a rough surface, while micro-filled has a smooth surface & better esthetics (correct)
