Dental Tribune U.S.Edition No.2, 2016

Dental Tribune U.S. Edition | February 2016 a7 INDUSTRY NEWS Ad Designs for Vision’s new LED DayLite® WireLess™ not only frees you from being tethered to a bat- tery pack, but the simple modular design also uncouples the “Wire- Less” light from a specific frame or single pair of loupes. Prior tech- nology married a cordless light to one pair of loupes via a cumber- some integration of the batteries and electronics 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, lightweight headbands and future loupes or eyewear purchases. The LED DayLite WireLess is not limited to just one pair of loupes or built into a single, specific eyeglass frame. The LED DayLite WireLess can be transferred from one plat- form to another, expanding your “WireLess” illumination possibili- ties across all of your eyewear op- tions. 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 inte- grated cordless lights/loupes. The LED DayLite WireLess produces more than 40,000 lux at high in- tensity and 27,000 lux at medium intensity. The spot size of the LED Day- Lite WireLess will illumi- nate the entire oral cavity. The function of the head- light is controlled via ca- pacitive touch. The LED DayLite Wire- Less is powered by a compact, rechargeable lithium-ion power pod. It comes com- plete with three power pods. The charging cradle enables you to independently recharge two power pods at the same time and clearly displays the progress of each charge cycle. Designs for Vision has been showing the Micro Series together for the first time this winter. The Micro 3.5EF Scopes use a revolu- tionary optical design that reduces the size of the prismatic telescope by 50 percent and reduces the weight by 40 percent, while pro- viding an expanded-field full-oral- cavity view at 3.5x magnification. The new Micro 2.5x Scopes are 23 percent smaller and 36 percent lighter than traditional 2.5x tele- scopes, and enlarge the entire oral cavity at true 2.5x magnification. The Micro Series is fully cus- tomized and uses the proprietary Wireless and unconnected Headlight transfers across loupes, frames lens coatings for the greatest light transmission.

The popular MyRay product is poised to join the array of practice solutions available in the U.S. from Cefla Medical Solutions North America, a subsid- iary of Europe’s largest dental-chair manufacturer. Cefla General Manager Massimo Di Russo said, “The X5 helps dentists make an immediate diagnosis, keep patients informed and make the most of every min- ute of the day as they work to complete and explain procedures.” The X5 was awarded the 2015 Red Dot Design Award for Product Design by an international panel of inde- pendent judges who reviewed it and some 5,000 other products on criteria such as ergonomics, functionality, durability and the degree of innovation. The company describes the Hyperion X5 as being the first-ever, wall-mounted panoramic imaging system and smallest pan unit ever available. According to the company, a simple user interface enables the X5 to achieve up to 15 high- definition 2-D projections in just a few steps. Installa- tion is described as being quick, involving minimal time and cost. The X5 was showcased in the Greater New York Den- tal Meeting exhibit hall at the end of last year. Pro- spective customers will have two more chances to see it in operation in the first half of 2016. It will be fea- tured in the Chicago Dental Society Midwinter Meet- ing exhibit hall and at the California Dental Associa- tion meeting in May.
