Abstract/OtherAbstract:
The use of magnification in dentistry appears to be of increasing interest. This is also reflected in our own specialty, with a number of optical companies exhibiting their products at orthodontic conferences and meetings. This article reviews the principles of magnification, briefly discusses the magnification loupes that are available on the market at the present time, and highlights the advantages and disadvantages of using magnification for orthodontic treatment.
