Ultradent Expands the VALO(TM) X Curing Light Family with the VALO(TM) XS and VALO(TM) XG Lights. September 18, 2026 south jordan, utah. Ultradent Products, Inc., a leading developer and manufacturer of high-tech dental materials, is announcing the launch of two new additions to its award-winning VALO(TM) X curing light family: the VALO(TM) XS and VALO(TM) XG curing lights. The two lights extend the VALO X light platform with new lens sizes and curing modes. Both lights share the engineering that has made VALO X curing lights trusted essentials in dental offices around the world: aerospace-grade aluminum unibody construction, a custom LED chip, a low-profile head for posterior access, one-button activation with the Accelerometer Function, and the option to work corded or cordless. The VALO XG curing light features an 11.7 mm lens designed for total coverage of larger restorations, helping to reduce the number of cures needed during a procedure. Like the rest of the VALO X light family, it offers Standard Power and Xtra Power curing modes, a built-in black light diagnostic aid mode, and compatibility with accessory lenses, including the ProxiCure(TM) Ball lens, PointCure(TM) lens, TransLume(TM) lens, Interproximal lens, and White Light lens. The VALO XS curing light is built with pediatric dentists and orthodontists in mind. Its 9.7 mm lens fits comfortably in smaller mouths and over individual brackets, and the light offers three power modes: Standard Power, Xtra Power, and Ortho Quadrant. In Ortho Quadrant mode, the light pulses for three seconds at a time with a two-second rest between pulses. The VALO XS curing light also features a built-in black light diagnostic aid mode and is compatible with four accessory lenses for added versatility. "A pediatric dentist working in a smaller mouth isn't always after the same lens as a clinician placing a large posterior restoration," says Ultradent Senior Vice President of Research and Development, Neil Jessop. "With the VALO XS and XG curing lights, we tuned the lenses and the modes to the way clinicians practice. Ortho Quadrant mode on the VALO XS light is a good example; it's the kind of thing that can save real time chairside without compromising quality." Both the VALO XS and VALO XG curing lights are backed by Ultradent's five-year manufacturer's warranty. To learn more or place an order, visit ultradent.com. About Ultradent Products, Inc.

Ultradent introduces the Gemini Nova(TM) cordless diode laser. August 11, 2026 south jordan, utah. Ultradent Products, Inc., a leading developer and manufacturer of high-tech dental materials, is introducing the Gemini Nova(TM) cordless diode laser, a fully portable, dual-wavelength laser designed to deliver precise, efficient soft-tissue procedures without the limitations of cords or cables. The Gemini Nova laser features a cordless handpiece, base, and foot pedal connected via Bluetooth, allowing clinicians to move freely throughout the operatory while maintaining consistent performance. At the core of the device is a powerful dual-wavelength system. The dual wavelengths of 810 nm and 980 nm can be used together or individually, giving dentists access to 3 wavelength modes. The 20 watts of peak, super-pulsed power provide faster cutting, less heat, and ultra clean incisions in soft tissue. The Gemini Nova laser is designed to simplify both learning and daily use. A 5.5-inch high-resolution touchscreen provides access to multiple preset procedures across surgical, non-surgical, hygiene, and orthodontic applications. Built-in protocols and technique guides are accessible directly on the device. The Gemini Nova laser is supported by the optional Gemini laser mobile app for usage tracking, procedure insights, and technical support. The laser is also compatible with existing Gemini laser tips.
