Get the Fusion. One of the best lights on the market.
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.

Are Bulk-Fill Composite Restorations Working?
By Dr. Christensen
I highly recommend that practitioners who haven’t recently upgraded their current lights look into upgrading soon.High–intensity lights save about $26,399 per year in a typical general practice. This is not pocket change.
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 moreAre New Innovations in Curing Lights More Effective?
By Gordon J. Christensen
In general, higher irradiance, broad spectrum, large diameter tips, 90° tips, and convenient controls were preferred. Current lights evaluated with good combination of features were Fusion Grand, Magicure, Bluephase G4, Soleil 770, and Valo Grand.Curing Lights: What you should know before buying one
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 moreHow does FUSION Grand/Plus compare with other similar broadband lights?
