ABSTRACT:
An apparatus allowing the provision of light and/or water at the tip of a dental illumination light curing device normally provided without such capability includes a pair of supply lines terminating at their remote end in an adapter capable of connection to a standard air/water connection as found on a dental pedestal. The local ends of the supply lines terminate at the neck of the illuminator, where they are supported upon the neck by a clamp, and interconnect with a pair of nozzle tubes. The nozzle tubes have exits at the illuminator tip, and are secured thereto in a removable manner. The modular nature of the apparatus allows removal and exchange of the nozzle elements as desired to accommodate differing illuminator neck shapes and lengths and permit sterilization and replacement of the nozzle elements.
