2.9 HEAT DEVELOPMENT

CAUTION: As is true for all modern high-power dental curing lights, the high intensity light emitted
can result in significant heat development at the targeted surface. Additionally, the typical curing
process of dental materials is an exothermic reaction. Any prolonged high irradiance exposure of
treatment areas near tooth pulp or soft tissues, such as gingiva, cheek, tongue or lips, may result in
irreversible pulp tissue damage that is not immediately evident.
The Loop handpiece will heat up during curing operation, especially during long cures at high irradiance settings.

Unlike other curing lights, Loop
handpiece from reaching unsafe levels. It will not begin a cure if the selected time and irradiance setting would cause
the surface of the handpiece to exceed 51°C during the cure. This prevents the cure process from being interrupted.
If the Temperature Warning icon (Fig. 1) is displayed when attempting to start a cure, wait for the device to cool or
select a lower time and/or irradiance setting before trying to start the cure again.

CAUTION: For indications where the patient may be sensitive to temperature or when performing
long or repeated high-irradiance cures, avoid prolonged contact to soft tissues.
The recommended curing times provided by the dental material manufacturer should be fully observed for curing. If
performing multiple cures or long cures at high irradiance on a tooth, prevent over-heating tissue by blowing air on
the cured area or allowing cooling time between cures.
