Dental Mirror

Dental Mirror for Dentistry and Intra-Oral-Scanner

The dental mirror is an important diagnostic instrument often used for observation and illumination in dentistry. Materion Balzers Optics dental mirror products provide excellent optical and durability performance for dental application. The optimized coating designs provide much higher reflectivity compared to the conventional mirrors used and this gives the dentist a brighter and much clear image of the indirect visual fields in parts of the mouth that are difficult or impossible to see directly. The excellent durability of our mirrors means it can survive frequent autoclave sterilization. Materion Balzers Optics can provide the mirror and the plastic handle as a packaged total solution too.
