One of the leading reasons doctors add a dental microscope to their practice is for enhanced visibility, giving greater accuracy and precision during diagnosis and treatment planning. Being able to see the finer details of anatomy such as cracks, caries and canals can be the difference between detection/prevention and a small issue becoming a much larger problem for your patient down the road.. 

Dental professionals are consistently investing in technologies that positively impact their ability to effectively care for their patients. From imaging systems to surgical microscopes, these new tools are often significant investments for a practice and are counted on to provide years of dependable service. Proper maintenance is a critical component to ensuring that any technology provides a solid return on investment and maximizes its value.

With over 25 years of experience helping dental professionals outfit their operatories with dental microscopes, we’ve learned no two practices are exactly alike. When improved ergonomics are at stake, it’s critical to get your scope properly configured to your operatory. We designed our Global A-Series microscopes to maximize fit in nearly any operatory set-up, by developing more mounting options than any other brand.

Over the years, advanced dental technologies have affected the way dentistry is performed. New technologies can detect problems earlier, improve the ways certain procedures are performed and offer greater accuracy, precision and comfort. Manufacturers of all different types of dental equipment are constantly looking for new ways to innovate and improve the technologies you rely on to make caring for your patients more efficient and effective.

Magnification is making big waves in dentistry. Over 25 years ago, dental microscopy was still an emerging technology, primarily associated with assisting endodontic procedures such as root canals. Today, more and more general practitioners are “seeing” the benefits of a dental microscope in their practice, both for clinical and ergonomic purposes as well as significant visual enhancements for restorative cases and other detailed procedures.

Dentistry has seen many innovations over the years, from the introduction of film radiography to today’s 3D digital imaging technologies. In the last couple of decades, magnification has grown in popularity among dental and specialty practices, allowing clinicians improved visualization compared to the naked eye.

Since the early 1990s, training in microscopes has become an important component of endodontic education, and their use is now universally taught at the graduate level in all CODA-approved endodontic specialty programs.
