Pre-heat your microfill, hybrid and packable resin composites and experience a dramatic improvement in curing time, degree of cure and flowability over room temperature applications. With no increase in light intensity, thermal-assisted light polymerization is proven to yield stronger restorations as well as deeper and faster curing of all composite materials. Addent's CALSET™ Composite Compule Heater warms composite compules to 130 degree F in two minutes. Studies have shown that pre-heated composites reach conversion up to 80% faster under any curing light source. Pre-conditioning with heat also allows composites to flow and conform to the shape dictated by the matrix more easily — with no effect on the physical properties of the composite. Better adaptation reduces time and grinding needed for occlusal adjustment. Use it to pre-heat pit and fissure sealants for thinner viscosity and better flow!
