Light curing devices are essential tools dentists rely on to place cosmetic fillings and resin composites. With the increasing number of options available on the market, it's essential to understand the nuances of each device to choose the one best suited to your clinic's needs.

1. Light intensity

Today's devices reach 2,000 mW/cm² or more, which is important for achieving rapid and efficient hardening of materials. But power isn't everything; light distribution and uniformity are also 
crucial factors.

2. Type of light and wavelength

Devices vary from single-wavelength to multi-wavelength. Multi-wavelength devices allow for the curing of different types of resins, making them more versatile for clinical use.

3. Design and comfort of use

A comfortable, lightweight device that's easy to hold and control during long procedures. Additionally, the digital LED display and operating timer are important features.

4. Battery life and charging speed
