PractiCure
PractiCure is the world's first device that lets dentists know the optimal curing time for their resin-based restorations. It does so by testing both the light and filling material together. The device consists of a simple hardware component that fits onto a smartphone or tablet and uses the built-in camera to test a sample of your filling material. After a short two minute test, dentists will know their optimal curing time. PractiCure is being used in offices in North America.
