Indications for Use
These accessories expand the uses of the VALO, VALO Cordless, and VALO Grand curing lights. See the Clinical Technique and Technical Details sections for each accessory’s specific indications.
PointCure Lens
For pinpoint curing of small composites or tack curing veneers.
TransLume Lenses
For detecting cracks and other abnormalities.
ProxiCure Ball Lenses
For building convex proximal contacts.
Black Light Lens
For detecting fluorescent particles in resins for easy differentiation from natural enamel.
Mounting Bracket
For easy storage of VALO LED curing lights the mounting bracket mounts to any surface. It is available in one size to fit all VALO, VALO Cordless and VALO Grand lights.
PointCure Lens
This magnetic lens provides pinpoint curing of small composites and is helpful for tack curing veneers. (Not yet available for VALO Grand light.)
TransLume Lenses (Green)
The green lens aids in locating and demonstrating cracks and subsurface differences. (Not yet available for VALO Grand light.)
ProxiCure Ball Lenses
ProxiCure Ball lenses facilitate the building of convex proximal contacts. The imprint is easily filled with composite in a second step. Push the ProxiCure Ball lens against the interproximal wall of the band; do not submerge in composite. (Not yet available for VALO Grand light.)
Interproximal Lens
Transforms the blue light into a 1mm point of white light to aid in viewing interproximal caries.
Black Light Lens
The Black Light lens is used to detect fluorescent particles in resins for easy differentiation from natural enamel. (Not yet available for VALO Grand light.)
White Light Lens Lens
Provides a visual aid for accurate colour/shade comparison or whenever natural light is needed. Transforms the blue light into a controlled 5000K white light for excellent colour rendering for shade matching.
Light Shield
The light shield provides protection to the person operating the curing light.
Barrier Sleeves
Barrier sleeves protect the VALO light from coming into direct contact with the patient’s tissues. Barrier sleeves are available in two sizes—one size for VALO and VALO Cordless lights and a larger size suitable for the VALO Grand light. See the Configurations section for more details.
Battery Charging Unit
This unit recharges the VALO light’s lithium-ion phosphate batteries so you can avoid the waste and extra cost of disposable batteries. The battery charger is suitable for power outlets from 100 to 240 volts.
Power Supply
The VALO Cordless and VALO Grand lights both have a charging unit power supply that is suitable for power outlets from 100 to 240 volts.
The VALO Corded light has a medical-grade international power supply is suitable for power outlets from 100 to 240 volts. It's available with a 6' cord or a 16' cord.
The VALO Grand just got more function with the snap of a magnet.

Q: How concentrated does the light become with the PointCure lens attached?
A: The light is focused to a 2.5mm aperture, which makes it ideal for tacking veneers and all-porcelain crowns.
Q: How long do veneers and crowns need to be tack cured with the PointCure lens?
A: For veneers, a 1-second tack cure with VALO light on high power mode is all you need. For all-porcelain crowns, a 2-second cure with VALO light on high power mode from the occlusal surface is sufficient in most cases.
Q: Can TransLume lenses be used for curing?
A: No.
Q: How should the various lenses be cleaned?
A: Cold disinfect the lenses using any surface disinfectant. Do not use an ultrasonic to clean the lenses. Do not autoclave.
Q: My VALO Cordless light doesn’t fit in the wall mount I received. What do I do?
A: The wall mount will fit both the VALO and VALO Cordless lights. Because the VALO Cordless light has a larger wand body, it needs to be stored upside down in the wall bracket.
Q: How do the lenses attach to the VALO curing light?
A: Each lens is magnetically attached to the head of the light. The magnet is strong enough for a secure attachment but still allows for easy detachment at the right time.
