摘要：Introduction : The polymerized reins that are light cured when a particular dose of energy is applied to the resin, with the dosage varying greatly between brands and shades. The amount of light that enters the surface and penetrates the substance is a vital factor in the completeness of the cure. The more opaque the hue, the less light it transmits, and it only cures to a shallow depth (1 mm).The aim of the study is to create awareness on light cured polymerised resins among dental students. Materials and method : Self administered questionnaire was framed based on awareness. The questionnaire was circulated through a google docs link to the study participants. The participants were explained about the purpose of study in detail.Once after the results of the survey were obtained, pie charts with a frequency table were prepared.The statistics done using SPSS software version 22.0 , chi square test was done to check the association and a p value of 0.05 was said to be statistically significant. Results : 85 % of the students are satisfied after using the Light curing unit and 84 % of them using LCU in daily practice and the p value obtained was p = 0.053 which is significant. Conclusion : The advancement of science in dentistry yielded light curing materials which resulted in a significant clinical progress over the UV and chemically cured resins. Most of the students are aware about the light cured polymerised resins and the light cured polymerised resins are used by the dental students.
