Magnification + Illumination = Excellence
This image gives us an insight into the detailed world of microscope dentistry.....
On the top of the picture, we see 2 images (A and B) of ultra-conservative root canal openings made under the microscope. Minimally invasive 3-dimensional cleaning is possible in the root canal system visualized under magnification. The images (C and D) show minimal intervention aesthetic fillings on the front and back teeth respectively. Magnification permits a more accurate placement and finishing of the margins of fillings, veneers and crowns. Lastly, the image (E) reveals a hair-line crack in a premolar tooth which would not have been visible to the naked eye. Thus microscope-enhanced dentistry is a refinement of existing dental procedures rendered extremely precise and predictable.
