Get the Fusion. One of the best lights on the market. I stopped using my Demi when I got the Fusion.  I bond almost every restoration I do in my office. I refuse to jeopardize the quality of the bond, and thus my restoration and my reputation because I wanted to save a few hundred dollars and bought a cheapo light. The Fusion comes with a 2 mm tacking tip. The wand itself can be detached from the body and you can add other accessories, like a oral cancer detection light.

FUSION 5 the modern generation of LED light polymerization device

Its complex optics focus the polymerization beam at a distance of up to approx. 10mm. Its power density measured with the Marc spectrophotometer is an outstanding 3900 mW/cm2.

It is the most modern generation of LED-based systems that goes far beyond pure light polymerization. It makes it possible to implement a maximum of light-based diagnostic and therapeutic options in an efficient and very inexpensive way.

A phenomenal company

From loupe lights and loupes to cameras and curing lights, DentLight is a phenomenal company that consistently develops products to meet dentists’ needs.

Dr. Howard Glazer, Fort Lee, NJ

Fusion 5 is one of the most versatile dental instruments ever designed

This highly innovative curing light features a 4000mW/cm2 laser-sharp focused curing beam. The secret is in the upgraded optoelectronics that deliver more uniform and lower dispersion optical beam further optimizing curing power in depth. Importantly for the patient, heat generation is significantly reduced. The bottom line is that a predictable and effective composite cure can take as little as 3 seconds!  The comfortably thin curing light (thinnest ever) is ergonomically balanced for clinical comfort for both patient and dentist, particularly important with posterior teeth polymerization and long procedures. The Fusion 5 is a multifunctional and versatile light that is readily upgradable for high-power transillumination (caries, fractures, canals), fluorescent imaging (early cancer detection), and photodynamic pain therapy for added profit streams (simply change the head chairside). The rapid cure (3-6 times faster than many competitors) makes restorative dentistry far more efficient, and thereby more profitable. The ultrafast 3 second cure is the first of many unique features that makes the Fusion 5 one of the most versatile dental instruments ever designed.

Dr. George Freedman, MARKHAM, ON, Canada

Always been an excellent curing light

The DentLight Fusion has always been an excellent curing light. When we create larger composite restorations, it is often necessary to cure from more than one surface at a time. The new dual-head model allows curing from the buccal and lingual simultaneously.

Dr. Paul Feuerstein

FUSION shows the highest power density…

As a result of its low light dispersion, FUSION shows the highest power density at 5-mm tip distance among 22 LED lights and provides more than two times the intensity of many other LED curing lights at 10mm away from the tip.

“A Clinicians Guide to Light Curing”, Academy of Operative Dentistry, Annual Meeting, Feb. 2007.
Dr. Fred A. Rueggeberg

High power output

The FUSION’s high power output carries the polymerizing photons further into the composite, making the active working distance longer and allowing deeper bulk curing of the composite restoration. In fact, as composites with ever lower polymerization shrinkage properties are developed, the FUSION curing light may allow single-step bulk curing of these materials (as opposed to the slower,  sequential curing of individual thin layers).

Dr. George Freedman DDS, MARKHAM, ON, Canada

The light guides are excellent for tack and wave cementation of indirects

The dentlight Fusion is a cool little addition to your armormentarium: it is well made and neat looking and its small size allows it to reach difficult to access areas such as distal surfaces of second molars: this is particularly helpful for patients with restricted opening. The light guides are excellent for tack and wave cementation of indirects. I would unhesitatingly recommend this product .
Jason Smithson BDS

FUSION has High Power… Tiny Footprint.

We’ve been impressed with the ease of use and most importantly, the intensity of the light resulting in a superior depth of cure. We’re also impressed with the low profile design that makes it easier to get the light parallel to the curing surface. It has a variety of curing cycles that will meet the needs of any user. The price is also right, giving you great value for the amount of energy it produces. This device comes with my highest rating. Dr. Dr. John Flucke, Lee’s Summit, MO

The Best Light I’ve Ever Used

I strongly recommend the DentLight Fusion. It is by far the best light I’ve ever used. It has a 5 sec cure for most composites, great ergonomics and can be passed like a hand instrument, it’s very durable, I can use it to seat a CEREC / other indirect restorations and tack cure it. I bought one for every operatory. I also use the bar mount charging unit / docking station so that it is always charged. You should be able to buy it from any dealer that you use.

Dr. Scott D. Benjamin

FUSION is a great all-around light for the dental office

The Fusion Light is one GREAT all-around light for the dental office. You get the benefits of three lights in one! Curing, Transillumination and Oral Cancer Screening. The Curing power is remarkable, the power of the white light attachment for caries and cracked tooth detection is great and the ability to use the DOE attachment for an enhanced oral tissue/cancer screening and evaluation makes this light the complete package!
John Comisi DDS., M.A.G.D., Medical University of South Carolina

So compact and lightweight…

The Fusion is so compact and lightweight, and I have found it to be very well-balanced and comfortable to hold. Its controls are easy to use and see, and its low-profile curing head fits nicely into most areas of the mouth.

With the advent of low polymerization shrinkage resins there is the opportunity for bulk filling, and that requires a powerful light. DentLight’s Fusion Curing light is just such a powerful light that offers two easily toggled power modes

I would recommend the Fusion without reservation to my colleagues who are in the market for a high-power, versatile curing light that is economical and so useful in everyday practice.

DentLight’s dual head

If you have light sources on both sides, shrinkage is minimized. With DentLight’s dual head, I can simply pop off the single light source on top of the FUSION curing light and snap on this dual head. It is wide enough to accommodate the widest of molars buccally and lingually.

Curing Lights

High–intensity lights save about $26,399 per year in a typical general practice. This is not pocket change.

June 5, 2011

By Gordon J. Christensen

Dental Economics, 2009 High intensity curing lights are safe, easy to use, proven with research and clinical use, and highly preferred by clinicians who have experience with them. Get a new high–intensity LED or a plasma arc light. I suggest you not waste effort by upgrading your older lights. Many techniques can benefit from the use of high–intensity lights. Among them are composite restorative procedures, flowable composite placement, cementation with resin cements, liners, resin–modified, glass–ionomer restorative material placement, sealants, andRead more

Curing Lights: What you should know before buying one

January 24, 2011

By Michael B. Miller, DDS

The selection of a curing light that fits your style of practicing remains one of the most important equipment purchases you will make. If you have an active restorative practice, it is a device that you use virtually every time you treat a patient. The right light can help you achieve success, while the converse is true – the wrong light can make your efforts more tedious and your results less consistent.Read more

How does FUSION Grand/Plus compare with other similar broadband lights?

High power, large tip size, broadband, low dispersion distinguishes FUSION Grand/Plus from other similar brands as is studied in detail by CR published report:

"Are New Innovations in Curing Lights more Effective?"

The most recent studies comparing the FUSION models with the top ranked lights:

Are all curing lights the same?

All lights are not created equal. This is explained in detail in "Light Curing Guidelines for Practitioners" from a group of experts in the field of dental restorations. Lights are different not only from their performances but also their constructions and service supports. The major performance parameters are light intensity, tip size, beam uniformity (homogeneity), wavelengths and beam dispersion. The results can be very different not only short term from sensitivity and bonding failures but also longer term. Clinicians Report has performed many independent studies on varies curing lights. In particular, it demonstrated online budget curing lights have not only small light tip, but also very inconsistent and unstable light output. The study suggests that these low-cost curing lights lack the desired consistent and depth of cure. FUSION curing lights have been consistently rated as one of the best curing lights on the market through the past 11 years through 5 generations.

How much time does it take to cure with FUSION?

Typical curing time is 3 seconds for A3 or lighter shade with 2 mm thickness composite and 2 seconds for metal bracket/3 seconds for ceramic bracket bonding. The table below lists typical curing times for some common composite:
Manufacturer 3M Ivoclar Dentsply Kerr
Resin Brand Filtek Supreme Plus Heliomolar Tetric EvoCeram TPH3 XRV Herculite
Color/Shade A3E C6D A3 A2 A3 DY A3 YB
Cure Times (FUSION5, Plus or Grand) 3 9 3 3 3 3 3 3
Cure Times (FUSION S7) 10 30 10 10 10 10 10 10
Please use the CURE TIMES instruction from your Users Manual for further details.

Why is FUSION better than other curing lights?

Every day, more than half of a million white filling restorations are performed using curing lights. Every year, 260 million white fillings are placed. Studies have shown that the average lifetimes of the fillings are only 5.7 years. 24% of restorations failed out of 500,000 cases.  They are results of improper cures due to lack of correct energy dosage in filling pocket deep from the top surface. Most LED curing lights on the market today have an irradiance (intensity or power density) value below 1000 mW/cm2 while a lot of them significantly overclaim their power using artificially inflated radiometer. FDA guidelines require a minimum of 400 mW/cm2 for proper cure. Curing lights are the second most frequently used dental devices. The cost averages per use of the device is insignificant to the price of the device, which typically ranges from $300 to $1700 with some budget lights sold on the internet (with no regulation controls) going as low as $9. Many studies have shown that the low cost budget curing lights are not worth the investment given the poor performance and quality impacting the quality of a professional practice not to mention the legal liability. High power and rapid curing lights are highly desirable since the composite hardness and curing time are directly tied to the local irradiance. Therefore, uniform and high irradiance level are highly desirable for composite cure. Uncured composite results in tooth sensitivity, microleakage and increased wear of the composite that influence the success rate of a restoration or the result of a bonding failure. Aside from power or energy distribution, curing lights vary significantly in terms of their ergonomics, cordless vs. corded, functionality, wavelength and more importantly their quality and service/support. As the second most used clinical equipment, curing light selection is critical to the daily clinical operation and work flow. It is not worth buying cheap lights with no back up service and no validations of its performance considering the cost of redoing any fillings and brackets far outweighs the cost of the device. Proven clinically and scientifically (see Testimonials and Technology), FUSION is the latest and greatest LED curing light on the market surpassing its predecessors who have earned top ratings and reviews from the most reputable independent evaluations involving more than 60 independent practices and 20 leading opinion leaders. It is small and sleek yet unleashing the most power with lowest dispersion of any curing lights on the market today with its unique laser-sharp focused LED technology that zaps any composites in seconds.
    FUSION distinguishes itself from the crowd of other dental curing lights as:
  • The most powerful: proven power of 4000 mW/cm2 (FUSION 5/FUSION Plus/FUSION Grand)
  • Minimum dispersion: power remaining at 2600 mW/cm2 at 8mm distance from the light tip while almost all lights are below 400 mW/cm2
  • The most uniform beam pattern to ensure uniform composite hardness and minimum stress
  • Constant intensity throughout the battery running time and life time.
  • The smallest, the most ergonomic and easy to use with its intuitive and advanced interface
  • The most reliable with close to tens years field proven track record based on its solid metal construction with shock and water proof  design
  • The lowest profile light probe with 360 degree easy access
fusion5-low profile
    • And above all: it is not just a curing light, but the most advanced light system that delivers upgrade options for more revenue streams:
  • fluorescent imaging for composite, caries, and early detection of oral cancer
  • super high power transillumination for caries/fracture/canal detection
  • full arch bleaching
  • and more
FUSION is setting a new standard in LED Curing Light and it is the best buy in terms of its combination of performance and cost.

Does FUSION cure all materials?

Yes. FUSION 5 cures CQ/PPD photoinitiator based composite. FUSION Plus and FUSION Grand cure all materials. It uses a smart patent-pending interchangeable 360 degree swivel LED light head that accommodates standard LED and broadband LEDs enabling it to cure all dental composites.
