The principle of tooth-filling photopolymerization

Jun 30,2025

Hello everyone, I'm Jacky, and today I'll be talking about the principles of photopolymerization for tooth fillings. Why is it that the dentist applies something to my tooth, and it hardens in a moment, just like my own tooth? Photopolymerization uses a strong light beam to cure the filling material. This light beam activates the chemicals in the resin, causing it to harden and set quickly. This allows the filling to bond tightly to the tooth surface and prevents further damage. So that's why the filling is completed with a quick shine from the machine. This machine is called a photopolymerization curing light. Liangya is the manufacturing factory, the original factory, with over ten years of production experience.

Hello everyone, I'm Jacky, and today I'll be talking about the principles of light-cured tooth fillings. Why is it that when the dentist applies something to my tooth, it hardens in a short time and becomes like my own tooth?

Light curing uses a strong beam of light to harden the filling material. This light activates the chemicals in the resin, causing it to quickly harden and set. This ensures that the filling adheres tightly to the tooth's surface and prevents further damage.

So that's why the tooth filling is completed with a quick shine from the machine. This machine is called a light curing unit, and my company is the original manufacturer of light curing units, with over ten years of production experience.
