In FOCUS With Microscopes
Dental microscopes may be one of the best technologies to hit the modern-day dental office!
They are completely non-invasive to a patient but produce superior results and benefits that a
patient may never even know existed. A dental microscope used by a skilled dentist will help
him/her to see a tooth with a magnification of 10, 25, or 40 times what can be seen with the
naked eye.
The benefits are many:
Less tooth is removed in filling preparations because decay can clearly be seen.
The margins between the tooth and a new crown can be exact, increasing the longevity of
the crown.Fillings can be placed with such precision they are nearly impossible to see.
Irregularities and cracks in teeth can be seen clearly so they can be quickly addressed.
Fillings can be polished to a smoother finish which will help them last longer and feel better.
Surgeries can be done with great precision producing superior results.
Microscopes can be hooked to a video camera so you can see what the doctor sees!
Dr. Ripplinger has been using a dental microscope since 2007 because the quality of dentistry that goes into your mouth is very important to him. He knows that the superior results he can produce by using a dental microscope will benefit his patients in years to come.
