How can documentation with the surgical microscope In dental visualization we are at an earlier stage of increase patients’ involvement in the treatment and this journey. Even though the surgical microscope demonstrate your skills? has become the standard of care in endodontics, today only a single-digit percentage of all dentists I am confident that implementing some of the precious worldwide enjoy the benefits of working with insights of this book in your daily practice will change this tool. We firmly believe that this will change your professional life for the better. as the surgical microscope will pave the way to accelerated medical progress in many applications in dentistry by giving the clinician a greater degree Sincerely, of control in a range of delicate procedural steps. In endodontics, the surgical microscope is already an integral part of the postgraduate curriculum. For other dental applications, we are not there yet. Therefore many dentists are seeking guidance on how to integrate microscopy into their daily Dr. Christian Schwedes practice, beyond endodontics. To help fill this gap, Director Business Sector Dental & Office, we asked leading clinical specialists in different Carl Zeiss Meditec AG disciplines of micro-dentistry to contribute to this publication.

Can you still remember the first time you looked through a Beginning in 1990, many innovative dentists from numerous microscope or magnifying glass? Perhaps the first thing you countries pressed for the use of OPMIs in dentistry: this saw was a daisy which you thought you knew well, but which drive towards microdentistry was led by Dr. Syngcuk Kim then under the OPMI opened up a new world for you. We (Philadelphia, Pennsylvania) and Dr. Clifford Ruddle (Santa are not only drawn into the microcosm by our curiosity, but Barbara, California) in the USA, as well as Dr. Peter Velvart we also benefit from the insight we can gain into intricate (Zurich, Switzerland) in Europe, among others. While details and structures. Microscopy is an integral part of many endodontics is the main discipline in which OPMIs are surgical disciplines nowadays. Doctors first used the surgical used in dentistry, other disciplines such as periodontology, microscope for microsurgical operations in the ENT area in implantology or restorative dentistry are adopting the use 1921. Ophthalmologists then attached lighting technology to of magnification technology. The dentist benefits from the surgical microscope and used it to perform eye operations. several advantages of OPMIs, regardless of the discipline. In the mid-1960s, neurosurgeons recognized the advantages Magnification enhances the visual acuity and supports more of using OPMIs for operations. Neurosurgery is today no precise treatment. However, no light means no information. longer imaginable without documentation and navigation OPMIs are therefore designed in such a way that they combine systems. The OPMI had been undergoing development for the magnifying lens and the light source. No matter whether around 60 years before finding its way into the world of they are working with low or high magnification, the dentists dentistry.
