Abstract
The mask has a cap from which two deformable legs protrude. The legs are deformed to permit the outermost parts of the legs to be snapped into a groove in the socket that carries the lamp of the dental light. The mask is not attached to a reflector shield, thereby simplifying the manufacture of the overall lamp.
