Ivoclar Vivadent has announcedthe introduction of the new Bluephase G4, an intelligent LED curing light. The Bluephase G4 automated assistance system detects if the handpiece moved during the curing process and if the restoration can no longer be cured reliably. Depending on the extent of movement, the Bluephase G4 Polyvision either emits a vibration alert to inform the operator of the error and automatically extends the curing time by 10% if necessary, or if the handpiece moves too much (e.g., slips off the tooth), it interrupts the curing cycle by automatically shutting off so the cycle can be repeated correctly.
Like its Bluephase Style predecessor, the new Bluephase G4 features Polywave technology to enable curing of all dental materials. With the addition of Polyvision technology, the stylish, user-friendly, and efficient Bluephase G4 facilitates reliable and complete curing during polymerization procedures.
The Bluephase G4 features a light output of 1200 mW/cm2, Polywave LED technology in a broadband spectrum of 385 nm to 515 nm, and a 10 mm–wide light guide with a homogeneous beam profile. The curing light is also equipped with antiglare protection to prevent activation in open space. Combined, these capabilities contribute to exceptionally efficient use, high-quality results, and short procedure times.
