Dental Tribune Canada Edition No.1, 2016

. A11 Dental Tribune Canada Edition | March 2016 INDUSTRY PDC BOOTH 1529 Designs for Vision’s new LED DayLite® WireLess™ not only frees you from be- ing tethered to a battery pack, but the simple modular design also uncouples the “WireLess” light from a specific frame or single pair of loupes. Prior technology married a cordless light to one pair of loupes via a cumbersome in- tegration of the batteries and electron- ics into the frame. The compact design of the DayLite WireLess is independent of any frame/loupes. The patent-pending design of the LED DayLite WireLess is a new concept: a self- contained headlight that can integrate with various platforms, including your existing loupes, safety eyewear, light- weight headbands and future loupes or eyewear purchases. The LED DayLite WireLess is not lim- ited to just one pair of loupes or built into a single, specific eyeglass frame. The LED DayLite WireLess can be trans- ferred from one platform to another, ex- panding your “WireLess” illumination possibilities across all of your eyewear options. 1.4 ounces The LED DayLite WireLess weighs only 1.4 ounces and, when attached to a pair of loupes, the combined weight is half the weight of integrated cordless lights/ loupes. The LED DayLite WireLess produces more than 40,000 lux at high intensity and 27,000 lux at medium intensity. The spot size of the LED DayLite Wire- Less will illuminate the entire oral cav- ity. The function of the headlight is con- trolled via capacitive touch. The LED DayLite WireLess is powered Headlight transfers across loupes, frames The LED DayLite WireLess headlight can integrate with various platforms, including your existing loupes, safety eyewear, lightweight headbands and future loupes or eyewear purchases.

The charging cradle enables you to independently recharge two power pods at the same time and it clearly displays the progress of each charge cycle. Designs for Vision has been showing the Micro Series togeth- er for the first time this winter. The Micro 3.5EF Scopes use a revolutionary optical design that reduces the size of the prismatic telescope by 50 percent and reduces the weight by 40 percent, while providing an expanded-field full- oral-cavity view at 3.5x magnification. The new Micro 2.5x Scopes are 23 per- cent smaller and 36 percent lighter than traditional 2.5x telescopes, and enlarge the entire oral cavity at true 2.5x magni- fication. The Micro Series is fully custom- ized and uses the proprietary lens coatings for the greatest light transmis- sion. You can “See the Visible Difference®” yourself by visiting the Designs for Vi- sion booth, No. 1309/1311 at The Pacific Dental Conference in Vancouver, British Columbia.

Stud- ies indicate that using the warm compaction technique increases the chances that no voids will be left behind in the obturation process. The EvoFillTM Duo obturation system, a new technology, was showcased in February at the Chicago Dental Society Midwinter Meeting. While countless methods and tech- niques are available for root canal procedures, perhaps none is as easy, intuitive and time-saving as DiaDent’s complete obturation system, according to the company. With an innovative electric motor that prevents hand fa- tigue, EvoFill Duooffers fastheating and controlled gutta- percha extrusion with precise 3-D fills and reliable results. Both units can be fully charged within 90 minutes. EvoPackTM is a cordless, warm, vertical-compaction de- vice. It effectively and tightly compacts and seals all can- als, including lateral canals. After a canal has been shaped and cleaned, a master cone is selected for a snug fit and tug back. EvoPack is then used to cut, soften, downpack Obturation system compacts and seals all canals — including lateral and compact the root canal filling material. A new, LED-light-guided condenser providesusers aclear view inside the oral cavity. Color-coded pen tips are available in five sizes, including XF, F, FM, M andML.Itsquickheatingtipreachesahighestlevel of temperature of 2,50o C within one second to save treatment time. Three levels of temperature and two heat- ing-time settings give users full control of any procedure. EvoFill is a motorized, cordless obturation system that extrudes warm gutta-percha to backfill unfilled portions of the canal. The motorized mechanism helps prevent users from experiencing hand fatigue. EvoFill uses hy- gienic, one-time-use gutta-percha cartridges to deliver fast, precise and direct injection of softened gutta-percha into the root canal. The tips can be bent to the desired shapeandangleusingthemultipurposewrenchprovided. The clear GP window displays the amount of gutta-percha available in the cartridge. With the new disposable fast- loading gutta-percha cartridge, there is no messy, tedious cleanup, according to the company. EvoFill has three vari- able temperature settings to provide precise control of ob- turation flow. The preheating function quickly softens the gutta-percha when device temperature is low.
