How is Dentlight different from other headlights?
DentLight has designed a flexible and wearable light platform to suit to all dental professionals’ needs.
On the general dentistry’s side, three models cover general illumination needs: - Nano 2S Plus, Nano Freedom2, and Nano Freedom2 Plus. All three models are interchangeable in their use of parts from lamp to battery so that the users can pick and upgrade whenever they need. One model cover both illumination and fluorescent hands-free assistance needs: Nano Black lights
All four models use a small LED lamp (5 grams) with two built-in connectors to link to either one battery pod for 3 hours non-stop operation, or two battery pods for 6 hours, or optionally to a battery pack (Nano 2S Plus) for 10 hours operation with Nano 2S Plus battery packed light the most economic in price.
For users prefer wireless and hand-free option, Nano Freedom2, Nano Freedom2 Plus and Nano Black are ideal choices depending on magnifications and procedures. Unlike other wireless headlights that bear the battery weight on the operator’s nose making it very uncomfortable over a long working day, Nano Freedom2 has the unique battery design that fits its battery on any frame temples. This allows the battery to disperse its weight evenly across the head resulting in much more comfortable user experience. In addition, the battery pod uses proximity sensor for touch-free activation and easy operation. The system is designed for durability, flexibility and minimum recurring cost for heavy duty daily uses
The system can switch to Nano Black lamp, the first integrated multi-wavelengths LED light that includes a user selectable daylight or violet light for either hands-free general or fluorescent illumination. The wearable fluorescence technology in combination with regular loupes and SafeLoupe insert enhances the vision to observe malignant soft tissues, decays, composite, as well as dental caries from the fluorescent contrast of healthy soft or hard tissue with the signature dark or red/orange fluorescence.
DentLight is pride in offering technologies that are the lightest and most comfortable loupe light on the market by a huge margin.
On the oral surgery and general surgery side, we offer the Xtreme2 surgical light that delivers medium-to-high end optical power of up to 100,000 lux with uniform and variable beam size adjustment ideal for surgeons, endodontists and professionals who require the most power and beam contrast.
How durable are the Nano lights?
- When it comes to engineering design, DentLight is vertically integrated in the design and implementation of all components. We do not cut corners and use cheap components for professional use. We ensure the highest quality and design in our products to their engineering extreme in form-factor, functionality, ease of use and durability on each component of LED, wire/connector, SMT, housing, and battery.
- Headlamp itself consists of LED on its mounting base and optical assembly. Nano headlamp is shock proof in durability.
- Unlike other headlights using off-the-shelf wire and connectors, Nano uses custom nano-engineered wire and patent-pending reinforced connectors unmatched on the market in comfort, strength and quality. We are proud to achieve the engineering feat that our competitors can only look up to.
- Our products have evolved through four generations in 10 years with each one performing better than the previous one while maintaining our pricing throughout the improvements. This is different from other companies who outsource their development or rely on standard off-the-shelf parts that mostly does not meet the harsh clinical environment.
- Furthermore, our modular design makes it easy for our service department to repair any components in the product including replacement of wires, connectors, lenses, and SMT components typically in just a couple of days.
- We pride ourselves in standing behind our products over the past 15 years serving dental professionals to their highest standards.
How long will the wire/connector last?
- Lamp wire and connector are the most stressed component in the headlamp use. Beyond personal care and wire management, the engineering designs of wire and connector are directly tied to the professional lifetime of the product.
- Nano 2S/2C are the fourth generation lights designed by DentLight. Material selection, patent-pending engineering and simplicity are the keys to the product design success. Rather than complicating the design with connection on the lamp side which introduces more failure point, we reduce the stress by shrinking the wire size to 1/4 of normal wire using nano-engineered teflon wire with a patent-pending reinforced connector on the battery side.
- The unique mechanical properties of the teflon materials used in the wire offer ten times the flexural strength as well as impact, cut-through and abrasion resistance than regular PE wires. This enables us to reduce the lamp wire diameter from 3mm to 1.5mm thus shrinking the wire volume to 1/4 of normal wires. The smaller size not only reduces stress but also improves the durability and handling from clinical wear and tear.
- Combined with custom soldered and molded connector with a reinforced jacket, the new generation Nano releases represent the most advanced technology design for professional medical illumination applications making the wire and connector so much easier to use and manage that the wire feels like "invisible" to most users.
- Additionally, the new release kits come with custom protection cord to further extend the lifetime of your lamp in a harsh clinical environment with expected service life 2-3x longer than normal headlamp.
- Furthermore, Nano 2S/2C are designed with modular construction for easy in-house service replacement, which no other manufacturers offer. This will reduce the cost of ownership of the product for a long long time of profit generation in the clinics.

Level I | 24 | 10 | |
Level II | 14 | 6 | |
Level III | 10 | 4.5 |
Will Nano 2S/2C fit on any loupes, glasses or eyewear?
What are the color temperature and beam size? Can you describe the optical uniformity?
What makes Nano lights the most comfortable lights?
Is it possible to operate Nano handsfree?
- Yes. Nano 2S and 2C come in with two special features that enable handsfree operation:
- 1. Battery pack with large ON/OFF key that only requires a simple knock from the elbow to turn on and off the light. This feature avoids contamination on the battery.
- 2. Composite filter flip-up paddle that avoids contamination of filter/light.
- Furthermore, if you want the most convenient hands free operation, you may upgrade to the new release Nano 2S Touchless which uses an optimized capacitance activated sensor to help you activate the light through your pocket or gown with a simple close proximity placement of your wrist or forearm.
What is a protection cord and why is it needed?
What are the differences between Nano 2S/2C and our previous Nano lights?
- Upgraded the cord and connector to nano-engineered wire and patent-pending reinforced 135 degree angle connector - the industry's thinnest and most durable cord with custom molded super strong connector.
- New optics to expand the beam size by 50% for optimum full oral cavity uniform illumination.
- Double (2C) and quadruple (2S) the running time of the batteries with improved interface, smart alarm and set-and-forget power settings.
Can I leave the battery on the charger all the time?
Does DentLight’s headlights get hot?
- LED headlights generate light through electrical current. The conversion from electrical power to optical power is close to quantum limit meaning that it is much more efficient than normal light bulb (about 80% energy saving). The part of electricity that did not convert to light dumps into heat sink of the headlight and increases temperatures.
- Every high power headlight will generate some heat and become hot over time. The higher the power, the more heat. Depending on the size of the light, the heat will transfer into local temperatures or hot temperatures. The smaller the light, the hotter it gets with the same amount of electrical driving current and same surface areas.
- DentLight's headlights are designed to optimize the heat transfer at their individual design size and engineering target. There is one main difference between our lights and other competitors lights in that we isolate heat for safe operations.
- The new generation release (8/2015) significantly improved the heat dissipation and management resulting a super cool lamp even at the high power setting that the user will never feel their finger or skin hot burnt upon touching the lamp as is the case with other lights.
Why should I buy your lights as compared to other cheaper lights?
- DentLight's headlights are half the cost of similar quality products with FDA certifications.
- If you are comparing with LED lights in consumer stores that cost less than $100, the differences are:
- 4x to 8x more optical power with much focused beam (light you can not live with loupes)
- Easy mounting to your loupes and eye wear
- Integrated small rechargeable battery packs (you never need to worry about buying AA every day, the cost of which in a year will be more than the light)
- Add on accessories to enable your professional job
- Full service and support
- One of the major concerns over the loupe light is safety as incidents have happened including fire hazard from burning battery and skin burn from lamp high temperature as illustrated from image below.
Can you weigh the advantadges of Headlights with Overhead Operating Lights?
- Much brighter: 2 to 4x more concentrated light which is crucial in loupe procedures in efficiency and doing better quality work
- Portable with minimum weight (basically you feel no burden with you)
- Direct line-of-sight with no shadows (ideal for teeth extraction)
- Skylight color easing color matching
- Easy composite settings
- Does not taken any chair/counter space
- No more bulb replacement
- As low as a fifth of the cost
How much light is enough for me?
Do I still need to replace light bulb?
What is a composite filter and How is DentLight’s different?
- Snap-on clip to headlight so that the filter can be taken in or out of the light in a snap
- Orange filter to block blue light
- Filter flip tool that can easily touch set filter into preset angels/positions while preventing any contamination on the filter, light or loupe.
Why do I need a light?
Which headlight works best for me?
- Nano 2S and 2C for general illumination with magnification
- Xtreme for oral surgeons, endodontists and high power magnification users who requires more intensity
