Medical Information
Microscopic Dentistry
顕微鏡歯科治療の特徴
顕微鏡歯科診療とは、治療用の高倍率の歯科用顕微鏡（マイクロスコープ）を使って、肉眼では見えないほど細かい部分を拡大しながら行う精密治療です。
最大20倍程度まで拡大して患部を見ることができ、精密で確実、かつ安全性の高い治療が可能になります。
Main features of the microscope
- High magnification and enlarged field of view makes it possible to find cracks in teeth, deep inside root canals, gaps in fillings, and other things that cannot be seen with the naked eye.
-Precise treatment is possible. Treatment is performed only on the necessary areas without removing any excess tooth.
- It is possible to record and save video and images during treatment, so that patients can see the progress of their treatment.
- The powerful lighting with bright light makes even the dark areas inside the mouth bright and clear.
Improved treatment accuracy enables longer-lasting treatment with less risk of recurrence.
Examples of treatments using a microscope
・Root canal treatment (nerve treatment)
It does not miss the thin tubes and branches deep inside the root, and can accurately remove the infected part. It is especially effective for retreatment.
・Precise cavity treatment
Treatment can be performed while preventing any cavities from being left behind or excessive grinding.
・Precise placement of ceramic fillings
The accuracy of fit of fillings and caps has been improved, reducing the risk of recurrence or loss.
・Cracks (tooth cracks)
DiagnosisIdentifying small cracks or fractures helps to save the tooth or avoid extraction.
・Checking the area around the implant
This allows for precise cleaning and treatment of the implant and its surrounding area.
