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.

Once I bought 1 Fusion light, I bought a 2nd and was very happy.
I used Demetron for years. Once I bought 1 Fusion light, I bought a 2nd and was very happy. Demetron lights went into the transillumination mode only, after buying the fusion lights.

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
The option which I have found most helpful is the low level Red Healing attachment.
Since using the DentLight since 2013, I have found it to be very useful and convenient. It is easy to use for curing, transillumination and exams with tissue fluorescence. The option which I have found most helpful is the low level Red Healing attachment. Following a long dental procedure, I simply switch from the curing to the healing attachment, and my patients are pleasantly surprised at the relief they feel in the TMJ area and muscles of mastication. I recommend the DentLight.
James T Smith Jr DMD, MAGD, FICOI
Love the fusion lights
Love the fusion lights. I have 3 of them for the past 2 yrs with no issues what so ever. Awesome light at a very good price.
Dr H, Dentaltown
DentLight is a great addition to our practice!
DentLight is a great addition to our practice. It is affordable and easy to use. Our hygienist appreciates the small size and portability which DentLight offers over our prior LED lights. We highly recommend it.
Harold Schmulenson
Everyone in the office loves them
I have 4 Fusion curing lights now for 4 months. No problems so far, quick cure, cordless LED, very small footprint for the charger, never run out of juice. Everyone in the office loves them.
Dr. Scott Leuene
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
Very fast in curing, it really cuts time in half
This unit (FUSION 2008) is very simple to use, both the Dr. and myself can’t say enough good things about this unit- GREAT! … Power enough to get the job done in less time than our current light. … Very fast in curing, it really cuts time in half. … A great space saver. The unit is sleek, we like the nickel finish, classic look. The options are simple to use and the use for veneers for tacking time is wonderful
Blair Keck DDS
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
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!

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
What influenced the way you practiced in 2010?
By Ask Marty
The curing of composites was enhanced through the use of DentLight’s Fusion and Kerr Dental‘s Demi Plus. DentLight Fusion is a pen-grip-style curing light that has high output and can also be upgraded to a cancer detection aid. The Demi Plus continues the Dematron tradition with gun-style high-power curing. I am appreciating the faster curing and feeling better about the depth of cure from these lights. I also reduced the size of the headlight on my loupes with a smallRead moreFUSION – Cordless, LED curing light from DentLight

Ron Yapp, MS, John M. Powers, Ph.D. A primary goal for improvement of LED light-curing units has been to increase the light intensity – the thought being, the higher the intensity, the more rapid and more thorough the cure. Unfortunately, heat generation is a typical consequence of higher light intensity. The amount of heat that develops when light interacts with tooth tissue, resin composite or soft tissues is dependent on: the intensity of the light, how much of the light is reflected orRead moreFUSION rates as the best access in the mouth…
By ADA (American Dental Association)

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 more
Successful Light Curing – Not As Easy As It Looks
By Howard E. Strassler, DMD
Despite appearances that all curing lights are adequate, research has demonstrated that not all light-curing devices are equivalent! It involves specific devices and techniques, not all of which are equivalent. I have seen data for the evaluation of more than 145 different models of curing lights from 42 manufacturers. The prices of these lights range from $27-$4,900, with stated irradiance values ranging from 400-5,000 mW/cm2. While irradiance is the most common and easiest technique to measure curing light tip energy,Read moreAre all curing lights the same?

What are the recommended cleaning procedures?
- a) FUSION parts are recommended to be cleaned and disinfected with a cleaning solution including Cavicide, Lysol, Isopropyl or Ethyl alcohol. Do not autoclave or ultrasonic.
-
b) Thoroughly wipe clean handpiece, Charging Base and Eyeshield with a soft cloth or tissue damped with the cleaning solution. Do not spray or soak. Disinfecting agents and liquid must not enter any openings on unit in particular Metal keypad.
-
c) Clean curing lens and electrical metal contacts using Q-tips slightly damped (do not soak) with the cleaning solution.
-
Safeguard handpiece opening area, metal keypad, charging plug, and lens against liquid and sharp objects as this may cause electrical short-circuit, permanent optical damage or malfunction
Why do I need a White Light Head and what is an “Exam Tip”?
- Illumination to have side-by-side visual under fluorescence and enhanced white light illumination with the same magnification image
- Transillumination for hard tissue oral health exam including dental caries, fractures, and root canal.
How do I make sure that the composites/adhesives are cured properly?
- Curing Light Selection
- Correct Operating Technique
- Proper Composite/Adhesive Selection
- Deliver Required Energy
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.
Does FUSION generate heat?
- Use appropriate curing times. Limit the exposure time on a single tooth to below 3 seconds at a time, which has proven to be safe.
- Do not place light in direct contact with unprotected gingival, oral mucous membrane or skin. Prevent heat accumulation with a rubber dam in place or apply Kool-Dam on the gingiva and surrounding soft tissue prior to curing.
- Use technique of blowing air from an air syringe on the tooth being restored at the same time the resin is being cured as suggested by Dr. Gordon Christensen.
- Use technique of placing a wet cotton roll directly on the tooth crown opposite the side of exposure to lesson temperature rise.
- Use Pulse Power Mode to generate less heat if the users are more comfortable with it.
What is Pulse Mode (Standard LED Power) Mode and when do I use it?
- Press and hold TM/PW Key for 3 seconds to set at Pulse mode (1300mW/cm2). Use this power mode to avoid heat. The matter of fact is, since FUSION is so much advanced and powerful, that the Pulse Mode (Half-power mode) is higher than or equal to actual power outputs of other leading brand LED curing lights with a similar tip size. For example, Demi with 11mm Turbo tip outputs 1100mW/cm2 power*. With its advanced heat cooling and power maintenance technology, FUSION generates minimum heat in Half Power mode and allows continuous operation without any interruptions.
- This mode is also used for extended running in oral exam and bleaching.
Is FUSION cordless and what is the benefit of cordless?
- Thanks to its superior technology and engineering design, FUSION has been independently proven as the smallest high power cordless light achieving performances in power and functionality no other corded or cordless lights can match. It takes the smallest counter space with a counter charger stand. Or it can sit right on your dental unit with optional dental unit charger holder. As powerful as it is, FUSION maintains consistent power through its battery run time.
- Cordless provides freedom of movement in patient treatment: allowing easier access without the cord dangling around and avoiding costly limitations to a single chair with room-to-room or chair-to-chair mobility. With proper design as demonstrated by FUSION, cordless avoids major long term failure in mechanical fatigue breakage from the cord.
How often does the battery need to be replaced and can the light be serviced?
- FUSION is designed using smart Lithium-Ion battery assembly with built-in micro-controller electronics for protection and smart charging. Together with the most reliable connection components with shock absorbing capabilities, it ensures the longest possible service time of close to 5 years in typical clinical uses. More importantly, it helps the clinicians avoid the hassles of dealing with the battery for a long time and offers the most efficiency in a professional environment. Even in the case of a battery towards its end of life, users can easily replace the battery assembly with its screw-on connection.
- FUSION is modular in construction. User can easily replace the modular parts for field service. The light can be serviced by our manufacturing facility and authorized repair centers.
