Treatment under microscope

Why does a dentist need a microscope?

In modern dentistry, an operating microscope is not a fad, but a necessity.

Advantages of dental treatment using a microscope:
The microscope allows you to determine the boundaries between damaged and healthy tissues as accurately as possible during various manipulations (prosthesis, implantation) and preserve intact tooth and gum tissues.
Diagnosis and treatment of teeth with the help of a microscope facilitates the work of the dentist, improves visual inspection, reduces psychological and physical stress, which helps to maintain working capacity, which is important for quality treatment;
Diagnostics and treatment under a microscope makes it possible to perform any dental surgery with minimal trauma, which allows to achieve an aesthetic result;
With the help of a microscope, you can diagnose microscopic cracks, caries in hard-to-reach places and treat them in a timely manner;
The microscope allows you to install the orthopedic structure in a high-quality manner, ensuring maximum fit during prosthetics;
The microscope allows you to completely remove damaged tissues, quickly identify the channel and visually control the density of the fit of the composite material;
Diagnostics under a microscope allows you to precisely position the implant and fix it in this position.

What is the advantage of working with a microscope for a dentist?
The use of a microscope in dentistry opens up new opportunities and allows you to significantly improve the quality of dental services. Normal vision does not allow you to see the details that the microscope reveals. Thanks to the optical zoom, not a single detail will be hidden.

When using a microscope, the doctor needs far fewer X-rays, which are used to control the quality of treatment or diagnosis. The dentist spends less time during the administration of anesthesia, preparation, sealing of canals and other manipulations.
In what cases is a patient treated under a microscope?
Perforation of the root of the tooth - diagnosis and treatment under a microscope gives a chance to successfully close the defect and preserve the viability of the tooth;
Difficult passage of channels. The microscope makes it possible to diagnose, repair and seal the canal with minimal risk of complications;
Abruption of the tool in the canal of the tooth during dental intervention. Such a complication can lead to tooth loss. The microscope helps to diagnose and remove the fragment;
Repeated intervention on the canals of the tooth. Canal sealing does not always end successfully. Without a microscope, the doctor performs these manipulations "blindly". This approach can lead to repeated relapse and tooth loss.

Diagnostics under a microscope:
A complex microscope system allows in the diagnostic process to study the condition of the oral cavity in all its details (dental canals, soft tissues, fillings, prosthetic structures, as well as to diagnose caries and other dental diseases at the initial stage), which is not possible with other diagnostic methods.

Multiple optical magnification is possible thanks to the microscope. Methods of studying the condition of the oral cavity under a microscope bring modern dental diagnostics to a new level:

Thanks to the microscope, it is possible to diagnose the problem at an early stage;
The detailed visualization provided by the microscope increases the accuracy of diagnosis and medical manipulations, reducing the probability of error and the risk of complications;
The powerful optics of the microscope allow the dentist-surgeon to diagnose the operative field well, to carefully process the affected area, without injuring the living tissues surrounding it.
Treatment of canals under a microscope (Endodontics)
The most difficult stage of tooth treatment is canal treatment (endodontic treatment), which consists of thorough diagnosis, complete removal of root canal contents, treatment of canals and tight hermetic filling. Without a microscope, the endodontist cannot see deep channels, cannot choose the necessary beam of light, the required illumination and sharpness.

If endodontic treatment needs to be repeated, the microscope becomes indispensable. It allows:

Microscope allows to diagnose and close perforation in root canals;
Thanks to diagnostics, find an exit to the root canals;
Correct deviations from the main course of the channel;
Diagnose the condition of the filling material;
Remove tool fragments;
Diagnose hidden cracks when re-treating canals.
