In general, the Ultimate 1400 has been optimized to achieve a 10 second curing time with the latest generation dental
materials which cure with blue and violet light (400 nm to 480 nm). These materials include restoratives, bonding agents
and adhesives, bases, liners, fissure sealants, some temporary material, and luting materials for brackets as well as
dental-lab materials such as ceramic inlays. However, manufacturer's instructions regarding specific light curing dental
materials should be followed.
