Good light makes the difference between success and frustration
The “perfect” work lighting is not just a matter of secondary importance in dental laboratories as it influences both precision and quality of every dental restoration produced. The mandatory introduction of LED lighting creates new challenges in the laboratory: Premature curing of composites due to the high blue light ratio and altered color perception make it more difficult to work.
Is there a solution? Annette von Hajmasy, a certified dental technician with longlasting experience, has intensively tested the new LIGHT 1 work light for dental laboratories - with convincing results.
“I can finally work more relaxed with composites!”
Many dental technicians are familiar with the problem: LED light with high blue ratio accelerates the composite curing process, which often begins much earlier than is good for the modeling. Von Hajmasy explains: “The materials cure much faster under LED light, and this complicates their processing. LIGHT 1 provides a smart solution: thanks to its special composite mode, it is possible to model for around 30 minutes without the material curing prematurely.”
The art of perfect modeling - Light as a game changer
The Challenge in Dental Technology
- LED light in the 400-500 nm range activates photoinitiators in composites too fast.
- Different materials react in different ways - which makes it difficult to work with precision.
- Incorrect light falsifies color perception, thus compromising the layering technique.
Von Hajmasy's findings: The solution lies in the right lighting mode
LIGHT 1 work light for dental technicians has been optimized for these challenges. By reducing the blue component, the composite processing time is longer - without affecting the optical appearance.
More than just light: benefits for day-to-day work
Von Hajmasy concludes: “ LIGHT 1 changes the way we work.”
- Extended composite processing time thanks to customized light modes.
- Fatigue-free working thanks to glare-free, flicker-free lighting.
- Perfect color recognition, which facilitates precise layering and modeling.
“At the end of the day, I really feel the difference.”
Von Hajmasy provides an impressive description of how useful LIGHT 1 is in everyday working life: “I now even sit under the LED work light when I need to attach a button. The light is simply brilliant. And at the end of the day I notice that my eyes are much more relaxed.”
Tips for day-to-day lab work - from a master for practical purposes
- Work with the composite mode to prevent unwanted curing.
- Use different light modes to create the best lighting environment for each work step.
- Ensure color fidelity to achieve precise and natural results.
Conclusion: A new light for dental technology
LIGHT 1 provides a solution to the LED challenge - a rather elegant and smart one. LIGHT 1 not only impresses with its functionality, but also with its streamlined design and outstanding versatility. Based on her own experience, Annette von Hajmasy confirms: “If you want to work with more precision, relaxation and accuracy, you need optimum light.
