Curing Light
The low-profile, right-angle head and 360° rotating light guide of the C0-S LED Curing
Light allow comfortable access to hard-to-reach areas, according to the manufacturer.
Fast and efficient curing is facilitated by a collimated beam with as much as
2,500mW/cm2 of output, and seven operating modes make the light useful in many
clinical situations. Seven colors are available.

IPR Strips
ContacEZ’s IPR Strip System includes four new sizes of IPR Plus diamond strips for
interproximal reduction: .35mm, .4mm, .45mm, and .5mm. All ContacEZ strips are
designed to adapt to tooth contours for accurate and efficient stripping without leaving
sharp corners or ledges, according to the company. The specifications for each strip are
clearly engraved on the ergonomic handle.

Intraoral Sensor
The DEXIS Titanium intraoral imaging sensor now incorporates motion detection,
allowing the user to gesture with the sensor to initiate common commands such as
capturing an image. According to the company, the new sensor retains popular features
of the previous design while providing greater reliability and improved tissue contrast
over a broader range of radiation levels.

Surgical Laser
The 445nm blue light emitted by the SiroLaser Blue diode laser is better absorbed by
soft tissues, making the laser more precise and efficient during surgery and thus more
comfortable for the patient, according to the manufacturer. The device can be operated
in two other modes, with a visible red diode at 660nm for soft-laser applications such as
photobiomodulation, or an infrared diode at 970nm for conventional periodontics and
hygiene.
