Product Description

Elipar DeepCure-L is a high-performance LED light
source for the polymerization of light-curing dental
materials. The device has two components: a wireless
handpiece with a built-in battery which can be replaced
by 3M customer care and a charger. The device
is a medical electrical device in accordance with
IEC 60601-1 and is available as a tabletop device.
Wall-mounting is not possible.
In comparison with conventional light-curing devices,
Elipar DeepCure-L features excellent beam collimation
and a uniform beam profile, directing more of the light
energy to the restoration being polymerized and
producing a deep, uniform, and complete curing of the
restoration.
The light source is a high-performance light diode
(LED). The beam emerging from the device covers
the light wavelength range of 430 to 480 nm relevant,
for instance, for camphor quinone products and is
suitable for use with the majority of light-curing dental
materials, including materials for fillings, liners, core
build-ups, fissure sealings, temporary restorations,
and cements for indirect restorations.
See the manufacturer's information for the exposure
time required for the specific dental material.
Settable exposure times:
• 5, 10, 15, 20 sec
• Continuous mode (120 sec)
• Tack-cure mode (1 sec)
Place the handpiece on a flat surface when not in use.
The handpiece can be connected to the charger
between applications so that the battery is charged.
The handpiece must be connected to the charger at
the latest when the battery power level display glows
red steadily so that the battery is charged (cf. "Battery
Glare shield
Power Level Display on Handpiece").
The device is shipped with a light guide with 10 mm
diameter. It is not permissible to use the light guides of
other devices.
The handpiece is equipped with a sleep mode to mini-

mize the device's energy consumption. The handpiece
switches to sleep mode if it is not used for a period of
about 5 minutes or the incorrect charging voltage is de-
tected.
The charger uses a maximum of 0.2 W when ready for
operation.

Intended Purpose
Intended purpose: curing light for light curing dental
materials.
Intended users: educated dental professionals who
have theoretical and practical knowledge on usage of
dental products.
Patient target group: all patients requiring dental treat-
ment, unless the patient's condition limits the use.
Clinical benefit: initiates the curing reaction of light
curing dental materials.

Indications

• Polymerization of light-curing dental materials with
photo initiator for the wavelength range 430-480 nm.
- Most light-curing dental materials respond to this
Contraindications
Do not use Elipar DeepCure-L in patients with a history
of photobiological reactions (including individuals with
urticaria solaris or erythropoietic protoporphyria) or who
are currently on photo sensitizing medication (including
8-methoxypsoralen or dimethylchlorotetracycline).
Potential Undesirable Side Effects and Complica-
tions
Heat generation can result in pulp or tissue damage.
Unprotected light exposure can result in eye damage.
