I recently acquired a pair of magnifying loupes.These are basically telescopic lenses attached to a pair of glasses where the wearer will be able to see things enlarged to the number of times according to the magification of the lenses.

I do quite a substantial number of root canal cases.The molar usually has 3 or 4 roots,some even 5.In order for me to find all the canal opening through an access cavity of approximately 5 by 5 mm can be a daunting task.The loupes will help tremendously.I bought the 3X magnification lenses,so I see teeth 3 times it original size.More importantly,I will be less likely to miss any canals on a molar when I do the root canal treatment.

I am getting the hang of it,and one of the things I really like about using this is the fact that I sit at a very straight posture and therefore eliminate neck and back strain.Very ergonomic indeed.

Before I purchased it I had done some research found this particular brand,Surgitel to be impressive.Every pair is tailor-made to the eye specification of the user.So I had my interpupilary distance and eye-object distance measured before the specifications were sent to the US.

I am looking forward to be able to do better dentistry than ever.
