Lumadent

I just recently ordered my first pair of loupes and headlight from LumaDent recently, and I am more than pleased with their products and service. I received my loupes in time to practice using them a little, before they were required in my dental school.
Their loupes are just as excellent in quality as their headlight. I can see just as much detail as with some of the more expensive brands (Q optics, orascoptic, etc.). Their is no reason to spend more money to get a more reputable loupe brand! I’m so glad I went with lumadent, because I know I didn’t get ripped off.

I met Noah at the AACD conference in San Francisco and was very warmly greeted by him. I have had the Ultralight system for about 5 years now; however I felt that I wanted to try another system out. Both vendors are easy to work with; however, I do believe that the Lumadent system offers a better warranty in the sense that should the wire break it only costs about 10 bucks to switch the wire versus about $ 100 bucks. Not that my wire on the Ultralight has ever broken; however, it’s nice to know that if something should happen Lumadent won’t charge a lot to replace the wire.
As far as the quality of the product I do like the fact that the battery is encased in Aluminum as opposed to hard plastic. I have dropped my Ultralight battery a couple times and on the second drop it did break; luckily Ultralight did offer to replace it for free even though it was just barely out of the warranty expiration. Though I have yet to drop the Lumadent battery; I would suspect that it would not break due to it’s sturdier construction. Overall it does look nicer and I like that it has a knob to adjust to the exact brightness I like.
One thing that I had thought would be a deal breaker was that when I looked at the light for the first time, even at minimum power, was that the light was too bright. However, that was me sitting at home toying with it for the first time. Upon trying it out with a patient I noticed that the brightness setting at the lowest power was actually perfect. It was bright enough to illuminate the oral cavity without blinding me as I have noticed with some other systems. Well done!
Overall I would rate this product ⁵⁄₅ and hopefully I never have to find out if the aluminum case is sturdier than the hard plastic of Ultralight. I would highly recommend Lumadent as an extremely strong competitor to Ultralight.

Lumadent is an absolute must have for any clinician wanting to deliver better care. Mylinh was great. She came out and showed me the lighting system in person, and I was impressed. Now its been a year with Lumadent light and i cannot practice without it. Its lightweight and the battery pack last a full workday.

Great lighting system and even better customer service. Lumadent is by far the most popular lighting system among my classmates at the University of Louisville school of Dentistry. Couldn’t be happier with the system and definitely think it is the best system for the value. The service rep Noe was great to deal with and offered first class service

When selecting loupe lights, I was very sensitive and even picky. I tried several companies but something was not enough. Lumadent light is the most cost-​effective and has top notch customer service. Low heat radiation in front of my forehead, high intensity, uniform light field, easy-​to-​use, light weight, replaceable cables are really nice features. And you can fit lumadent light on everything, even your regular glasses.
