Why do dentists like to wear magnifying glasses?

It concerns the patient's peace of mind

Technicians who repair mechanical watches wear a magnifying glass, otherwise they cannot see the small parts inside the mechanical watch clearly. In many cases, the affected area of teeth in the oral cavity is even smaller than the components inside a mechanical watch. When viewed naked, it is often easy to overlook the parts that should be treated. Due to the use of magnifying glasses, omissions can be largely avoided, making it easy to establish a trusting relationship with patients.

Obtain a better view of the patient's oral cavity

The dental calculus inside the gums and between teeth that cannot be seen by the naked eye can be seen directly, and it is much cleaner during cleaning.

The decayed area of tooth decay can be seen clearly, and fine decayed parts can be removed, leaving almost no hidden dangers during treatment.

During filling therapy, it can be done more precisely.

After filling the teeth, there is almost no residual adhesive overflow, which can prevent two cavities.

Needless to say, every tooth in the mouth is seen more clearly, and the pain caused to the patient is significantly reduced.

Unlike naked eye, which has easily overlooked areas, the treatment accuracy is improved.

The ultimate manifestation is the improvement of treatment technology level.

Improved treatment efficiency and safety

The treatment site is now clearly visible, eliminating unnecessary procedures. For example, when whitening teeth, placing the ultrasonic scraper too close to the tooth surface can damage the tooth surface. However, under the condition of a magnifying glass, if the scraper accurately stays only on the part of the dental calculus, it can avoid damaging the tooth surface.

Only the necessary parts are treated, so the treatment time is shortened, saving time for both physicians and patients.

Maintain good posture

To align the focus of the magnifying glass with the affected area, naturally maintain a good posture. As long as it is 1cm away from the affected area, the amount of foam splashing from the patient's mouth will also be significantly reduced, which is beneficial for the physician's hygiene status.

Moreover, maintaining good posture can also reduce occupational diseases in the lumbar spine and lumbar spine of physicians.
