Heraeus Kulzer Announces Launch of Translux® Wave LED Curing Light
Cordless curing light weighs five ounces and delivers easy access and safe polymerization
South Bend, Ind. —Heraeus Kulzer, LLC, the worldwide leader in dental esthetics, announced the launch of its Translux Wave, an LED curing light for the polymerization of light curing dental materials that are activated in the 440 – 480 nm wavelength. The innovative curing light is cordless, weighs only five ounces, and allows effortless handling with its new modern and ergonomic design.
Notably, the Translux Wave’s high power density and homogeneous light beam cover the entire restoration with consistent intensity, while protecting the dental pulp by emitting very little heat even at peak intensity. Furthermore, the specially engineered light guide offers a shorter length and 70° angle that, combined with Translux Wave’s lightweight, cordless design, provides easy access to the molar region.
The Translux Wave is a state-of-the-art curing light that delivers optimum polymerization for all common camphorquinone-based dental materials. It offers two programs that are chosen via the power-button, making the alternation between the two programs very convenient and easy without interrupting the curing process.
The Translux Wave comes with a long-life Li-ion battery that requires very little time for recharging in a separate unit and can be quickly exchanged without using any tools. It is also one of the few curing lights featuring a built-in radiometer which ensures the required performance for the perfect restoration.
“The Translux Wave truly represents the state-of-the-art curing light for today’s dental practice,” said Aundrea Hoffman, Heraeus Kulzer product manager. “Its lightweight, cordless design and the optimized length and angle of its light guide maximize both comfort and convenience.”
