4. DENTAL CURING LIGHT
Usage of device:
Dryness of the white composite for teeth by
using laser blue led.
What is the Composite?
It is A mixture of plastic and fine glass particles.
Used for: Small and large fillings, especially in front teeth or the
visible parts of teeth; also for inlays
Lasts: At least five years
5. PRODUCT IN THE MARKET:-
After asking Maintenance Engineer and
searching in many sites about device and its
real components we know that:
A dental curing light is a piece of dental equipment
that is used for polymerization of light cure
There are two main dental curing lights are the
halogen and Blue LED.
6. 1.Old Light Cure
Operates with halogen
lump.
Disadvantage: consume
high power.
7. PRINCIPLE OF TUNGSTEN HALOGEN
In order for the light to be produced, an
electric current flows through a thin
tungsten filament, which functions as a
resistor.
This resistor is then “heated to
temperatures of about 3,000 Kelvin, it
becomes incandescent and emits infrared
and electromagnetic radiation in the form
of visible light”.
It provides a blue light of about 400 and
500 nm, with an intensity of 400- 600 mW
cm^-2.[
8. 2.Using Blue Led
is most widely used .
2.1wireless:
Disadvantages: the
chargeable battery is weak.
2.2hand with adaptor
Wireless Light Cure
better than the wireless
9. PRINCIPLE OF USING BLUE LED
it uses light-emitting diodes that produce blue light
that cures the dental material.
This light uses a gallium nitride as a semiconductor
that is the basis for the blue emission.
“In LED’s, a voltage is applied across the junctions
of two doped semi- conductors (n-doped and p-
doped), resulting in the generation and emission of
light in a specific wavelength range.
By controlling the chemical composition of the
semiconductor combination, one can control the
wavelength range.
10. PRINCIPLE OF BLUE LED:
The dental LED curing lights use LED’s that
produce a narrow spectrum of blue light in the
400- to 500-nm range (with a peak wavelength
of about 460nm), which is the useful energy
range for activating the CPQ molecule most
commonly used to initiate the
photopolymerization of dental monomers.
These curing lights are much different than the
Halogen curing lights.
They are more lightweight, portable and
effective.
11. PRINCIPLE OF BLUE LED:
The heat generated from LED curing
lights is much less which means it does
not require a fan to cool it. Now that the
fan is not needed, a more lightweight
and smaller light could be designed. The
portability of it comes from the low
consumption of power.
The LED can now use rechargeable
batteries, making it much more comfortable
and easier to use
12. SYSTEMS OF THE DEVICE:-
1. Continuous lightning for 15 sec.
2. Pulsed lighting every sec for 15 sec.
3. Graduate increasing in light intensity for 15 sec.
These multiple systems are found, because
of the theory, which says that when the composite
material is exposed to light directly, it
expands and cracks .
13. Prices of the device in the market:-•
Type of the device prices
Chinese device 500-1000L.E.
Korean device 1300 L.E
German device reach 4000 L.E.
China wholesale device 300 L.E.
The latest device with lens to measure the wavelength 800 L.E.
15. Our Work:-
the added value from point x to y
Development went in two directions:
A – low cost(remember the price of it ' ' pounds) and
redesign the shape of the cover.
B - for electronic circuit:
1 - safer
2 - Replace the 3 resistors, 3 LED with 2 one LED (tri-
color)

modes setting continous,pulsed,,gradually)
17. Advantages
Light in weight
Easy to handle
Convenient to control
Device Can Be Operated Either by battery or AC 220volt.
18. Instrument Function
Harden of the white composite for teeth by using light
blue led .
visible spectrum output (lights)that lies within a specific
wavelength range .
The idea is that the setting catalyst contained by this
particular color (wavelength) of light.
Actually dentist use curing lights to activate the set of a
wide range of different types of dental materials.
With most dental products including most dental
composites the light wavelength needed to activate the
curing process lies somewhere within the range of 420
to 450 nm .
This means that the light emitted from the typical dental
curing light will have a violet to blue coloration

29. CRYSTAL OSCILLATOR (4MHZ):
A crystal oscillator is an
electromechanical component for an
electronic osillator circuit that uses
the mechanical resonance of a
vibrating crystal of piezoelectric
material to create an electrical
signal with a very precise frequency.
This frequency is commonly used to
keep track of time (as in quartz
wristwatches ), to provide a stable
clock signal for digital integrated
circuits, and to stabilize frequencies
for radio transmitters and receivers.
