RelyX Veneer cement is very efficient in its light-curing ability. This allows for a simplified bonding technique and also provides for excellent color stability of the cured cement. This feature is vitally important for highly esthetic veneer restorations. Curing Efficiency of Relyx Veneer Cement Curing efficiency is important for veneer cement because curing the cement requires light-curing through the veneer. The light intensity that reaches the cement can be significantly compromised depending on the veneer’s thickness and shade and the actual output of the curing light. There is a wide variety of curing lights currently being used by clinicians with varying outputs. To obtain the desired physical properties upon curing, it is recommended that the minimum light output for a curing light is 400 mW/cm2 in the wavelength range of 400-500nm.2,000 mW/cm2 ) DMD Apollo 95E. The cement was cured at a 1mm thickness directly under the curing light and after filtering through simulated porcelain veneers (1.00 mm thick, Vintage Porcelain Body A2). Cure efficiency was determined by varying the exposure time and then sampling the Barcol hardness of a cement slab.
