Surface Microhardness of Tetric N-Ceram Nanoparticulate Resin Photocured with LED Polywave N® vs Monowave MN® at Different Exposure Times
The study offers valuable insights for clinical practice, demonstrating that adjusting light intensity and exposure time enhances composite resin hardness. This supports tailored photopolymerization protocols to improve restoration durability. Moreover, the stability of monowave LED results suggests its reliability for consistent outcomes, aiding material selection in restorative procedures.
