3M™ Ortholux™ Luminous Curing Light Light Guide, 704-456, 1/Ea

The 3M™ Ortholux™ Luminous Curing Light offers a versatile, ergonomic design and the latest in high-power LED technology. Manufactured from a one-piece, hydroformed stainless steel casing, the high-tech design features a smooth, nearly unbreakable exterior that is easy-to-clean and is stain-resistant. The absence of seams or vents protects internal components from contaminants as well as damage from fluids. The black-coated, 8 millimeter light guide contributes to the 1600 mW/cm2² output by optimizing the orthodontic curing pattern for the recommended mesial and distal curing technique, or the alternate interproximal curing technique. The black coating of the light guide assures the user that the high-intensity blue light is being directed into the oral cavity and not extraneously throughout the operatory. As a result, the light can cure ceramic brackets in three seconds mesial and three second distal and metal brackets in six seconds mesial and six seconds distal, reducing overall bonding time and chair time. Providing a comfortable grip from various angles, the unit’s V-shape accommodates any user’s technique, and its small size offers an excellent weight balance. Maneuverability and convenience are further enhanced by a magnetic light guide fixture that allows for quick and easy attachment, removal, and positioning of the light guide. Additionally, the eye shield rotates 360° and serves as a flat surface rest for roll-off protection.
