Soft-start Polymerization

Soft-Start Polymerization is a controlled light-curing technique in dental restorative procedures that gradually increases the intensity of light exposure during resin composite polymerization to reduce shrinkage stress by delaying gelation and allowing increased flow of the material before final set.
