The purpose of this study was to evaluate the effectiveness of plasma arc curing (PAC) unit composite and compomer curing . To compare its effectiveness with conventional quartz tungsten halogen (QTH) light curing unit. the polymerization shlinkage rates and amounts of three composites (Z100, Z250, Synergy Duo Shade) and one compomer. that had been light cured by PAC unit or QTH unit. was compared using a custome made linometer. The measurement of polymerization shrinkage was performed after polymerization with Apollo 95E for 6s. the power density of which was recorded as 1350 mW/cm^2 by Coltolux Light Meter. For light curing with QTH unit. composite was light cured for 30s with the XL2500, the power density of which was recorded as 800 mW/cm^2 by Coltolux Light Meter. The amount of linear polymerization shrinkage was recorded in the computer every 0.5s for 60s. Ten measurements were made for each material. The amount of linear polymerization shrinkage for each material in 10s and 60s which were cured with PAC or QTH unit were compared with t test. The amount of polymerization shrinkage in the tested materials were compared with 1 way ANOVA with Duncan´s multiple range test.
As for the amounts of polymerization shrinkage in 60s, there was no difference between PAC unit and QTH unit in Z250 and Synergy Duo Shade. In Z100 and Dyract AP. it was lower when it was cured with PAC unit than when it was cured with QTH unit(p<0.05).
As for the amounts of polymerization shrinkage in 10s, there was no difference between PAC unit and QTH unit in Z100 and Dyract AP. The amounts of polymerization shrinkage was significantly higher when it was cured with PAC unit in Z250 and Synergy Duo Shade (p<0.05) , The amounts of polymerization shrinkage in the tested materials when they were cured with QTH unit were Z250 (6.6um) < Z100 (9.3um).
Dyract AP (9.7um) < Synergy Duo Shade (11.2um) (p<0.05). The amount of polymerization shrinkage when the materials were cured with PAC unit were Dyract AP (5.6um) < Z100 (8.1um), Z250(7.0um) < Synergy Duo Shade (11.2um) (p<0.05).
