An Innovative Light Curing Unit With Multiple Portable Power Sources

The process of attaching brackets to the tooth surface has evolved from brackets being welded to bands to attaching them using light cure composite resin materials. Similarly, the curing lights have advanced from bulky Quartz-Tungsten-Halogen lights to light-emitting diode (LED) curing units. The LED curing units available now have advanced features like high intensity light, reduced curing time, and are very expensive and rely upon prior charging of the unit. The present article describes a curing light which is powered by an external power source like, laptop, smartphone, and power bank and is very compact compared to the present curing lights and is also less expensive.
