MICROLUX TRANSILLUMINATION TECHNIQUE GUIDE
For best results, all transillumination procedures should be performed
with the room lights dimmed or turned off.
CARIES, CRACKS, CALCULUS
Anterior Caries: Anterior caries can be visualized by placing the probe on the labio-cervical
region of the tooth and examine from the lingual. Shown Above: 3mm P/N 630003, 2mm
P/N 600045, Pedo P/N 110066.
Posterior Caries: To visualize posterior proximal decay, place the probe on the cervical area
of the tooth. Caries appear as a dark shadow on the occlusal surface. Shown Above: 3mm
P/N 630003, 2mm P/N 600045, Pedo P/N 110066.
ROOT CANAL ORIFICE
Root Canal Orifice: To help locate root canal orifice, place the light source on the buccal or
lingual cervical region of the tooth. Shown Above: 3mm P/N 630003, 2mm P/N 600045,
Pedo P/N 110066.

MICROLUX PERIO PROBE
Periodontial Disease: To detect the depth of the periodontal pockets and gingival recession,
use the lighted Perio Probe and insert the tip in the gingival sulcus. The depth indications are
3, 5, and 7mm. Shown at right: Perio Probe P/N 640041.
MICROLUX ENDO-LITE
Root Fracture: Root fractures can often be detected by using the Endo Fiber tip. Place it
either buccally or lingually in the gingival sulcus. A fracture line will appear dark via
transillumination from the outside to the inside of the canal. Shown at right: Endo-Light
Guide P/N 640035.
MICROLUX PROXIMAL CARIES ATTACHMENT
Posterior Caries: Caries can be detected using the Proximal Caries fiber tip. Place the
lighted fiber tip interproximally under the marginal ridge. View from the occlusal. This method
often shows caries with high definition. Shown at right: Proximal Caries P/N 640072.
