Thermal emission and curing efficiency of LED and halogen curing lightsKraig S Vandewalle
Dental Materials Evaluation, USAF Dental Investigation Service, Great Lakes, IL, USA
Oper Dent 30:257-64. 2005..No significant differences were found in maximum thermal emission or KHN ratios between the LED (LEDemetron 1) and the QTH (VIP) at maximum output and similar energy densities (ANOVA/Tukey's; alpha=0.05)...
Volumetric polymerization shrinkage of resin composites under simulated intraoral temperature and humidity conditionsAmer Tiba
Naval Institute for Dental and Biomedical Research, Great Lakes, IL, USA
Oper Dent 30:696-701. 2005..For each resin composite, statistical analysis indicated that the amount of volumetric shrinkage measured under simulated intraoral conditions was significantly greater than what was measured under ambient room conditions (p<0.0001)...

Naval Institute for Dental and Biomedical Research, Great Lakes, IL 60088, USA
Quintessence Int 39:573-9. 2008..To measure select physical and mechanical properties of 3 machinable ceramic materials (IPS Empress CAD, Ivoclar Vivadent; Vitablocs Mark II, Vident; Paradigm C, 3M ESPE)...
Comparison of two video-imaging instruments for measuring volumetric shrinkage of dental resin compositesAmer Tiba
Applied Clinical Sciences Department, Naval Institute for Dental and Biomedical Research, 310A B Street, Bldg 1H, Great Lakes, IL, USA
J Dent 33:757-63. 2005..As with other methods for measuring volumetric shrinkage, however, they are best used to comparatively measure different materials within the same laboratory...
Development and testing of a novel forward-deployable dental dressingDavid G Charlton
Naval Institute for Dental and Biomedical Research, Great Lakes, IL 60088, USA
Mil Med 173:1019-22. 2008..The forward-deployable dental dressing's properties compared favorable with and, in many cases exceeded those of intermediate restorative material, Fuji IX GP Fast, and Ketac-Molar Aplicap Quick...
