Effect of preheating and curing lamp distance on the degree of conversion of four nanohybrid resins: An study.

Background: Inadequate polymerization of resins is a major cause of failure in dental restorations. This study aimed to evaluate the hypothesis that both polymerization distance and preheating of four nanohybrid resins significantly affect their degree of conversion (DC).

Material And Methods: Four A2-colored nanohybrid resins were selected: Filtek Z250 XT (3M), Tetric N-Ceram (Ivoclar), Zafira (New Stetic), and Spectra Smart (Dentsply).
