Observe the Instructions for Use of the material
applied when selecting the curing time and intensity.
The curing recommendations for composite materials
apply to all shades and, if not mentioned otherwise in
the Instructions for Use, to a maximum layer thickness
of 2 mm. Generally, these re commendations apply to
situations where the emission window of the light guide
is placed directly over the material to be polymerized.
Increasing the distance between the light source and the
material will require the curing time to be extended

1) The 3sCure program may only be used on the occlusal surfaces of Class I & II
restorations in the posterior region and may not be used at all in cases of caries
profunda, or deep cavities.
2) Applies to a maximum layer thickness of 2 mm and provided that the Instructions
for Use of the respective material do not state any other recommendation
(which may be the case, e.g. with certain dentin shades)

accordingly. For instance, if the distance to the material
is approx. 8 mm, the effective light output is reduced by
approx. 50%. In this case, the recommended curing time
has to be doubled.
