Introduction.
Polymerization of light-cured dental materials used for restoration of hard tooth tissue may lead to an increase in temperature that may have negative consequence for pulp vitality.
Aim.
The aim of this study was to determine maximum temperatures reached during the polymerization of selected dental materials, as well as the time that is needed for samples of sizes similar to those used in clinical practice to reach these temperatures.
Materials and Methods.
The study involved four composite restorative materials, one lining material and a dentine bonding agent.
The polymerization was conducted with the use of a diode light-curing unit.
The measurements of the external surface temperature of the samples were carried out using the Thermovision®550 thermal camera.
Results.
The examined materials significantly differed in terms of the maximum temperatures values they reached, as well as the time required for reaching the temperatures.
A statistically significant positive correlation of the maximum temperature and the sample weight was observed.
Conclusions.
In clinical practice, it is crucial to bear in mind the risk of thermal damage involved in the application of light-cured materials.
It can be reduced by using thin increments of composite materials.
