The operating microscope is, in fact, a direct evolution of binocular loupes, which have already won over numerous practitioners. Its use in dentistry dates back to the late 1960s in France. In 1998, its use was mandated in postgraduate programs by the American Association of Endodontics (AAE). Today, the benefits of the operating microscope in dentistry, particularly in both surgical and non-surgical endodontics, are no longer in question.

The Operating Microscope in Dentistry

Nowadays, patient demand for orthodontic treatment continues to grow, particularly among adults. These patients, who are especially conscious of their appearance, seek treatments that are both fast and discreet—like clear aligners.

Clear Aligners: Alternative to Conventional Orthodontic Systems

A digital set-up is the 3D modeling, via specialized software, of dental and gingival movements, allowing the pre-visualization of the different steps of orthodontic treatment up to the final result.

The Digital Set-Up in Orthodontics

In 2015, the 3D printing market for the dental industry was worth $780 million. According to SmarTech Publishing, a leading firm in market research creation for additive manufacturing, the medical sector (including dental) accounts for 11.3% of additive manufacturing technology users.

Establishing an accurate dental implant diagnostic involves a painstaking clinical examination, often supplemented by additional radiological exams.

CBCT : Cone beam computed tomography for dental implants surgery

This innovative technique is used to fit dental implants using a digitally made guide, without disrupting the basic rule of modern implantology, where the prosthetic project controls the position of the implant and therefore the surgery.

Optical impressions are defined as being a projected light signal onto dental surfaces. The reflected signal will be recaptured by the camera, allowing it to create the 3D model.

The dental CAD/CAM chain (Computer Aided Design / Computer Aided Manufacturing) is a collection of coordinated technological resources for recording (acquisition) analogue clinical data in digital format and virtual modelling, before producing a tangible bespoke medical device.
