The present explanation relates to a dental lighting device, comprising at least one lighting system (1, 100) configured to light a predetermined dental zone (50) with, over a first spectral range which is less than a reference wavelength between 405 nm and 475 nm, a first irradiance value E1 and, over a second spectral range greater than this reference wavelength, a second irradiance value E2, which lighting system (1, 100) is configured to function according to at least one first lighting mode in which the ratio of the first irradiance value E1 to the second irradiance value E2 is less than 12. The present explanation also relates to a lighting configuration process using such a device.本發明係關於牙科照明裝置,其包括至少一個經組態以照射預定牙區(50)之照明系統(1、100),其在小於介於405 nm與475 nm之間之參考波長之第一光譜範圍內具有第一輻照度值E1,且在大於此參考波長之第二光譜範圍內具有第二輻照度值E2,該照明系統(1、100)經組態以根據至少一種第一照明模式發揮作用,其中該第一輻照度值E1對該第二輻照度值E2之比率小於12。本發明亦係關於使用該裝置之照明組態方法。
