Abstract

The dental mirror stands as an essential instrument within the realm of dental examinations and interventions. Its primary function is to render the structures, organs, and teeth within the oral cavity visible from all three dimensions, facilitating a comprehensive assessment. Concurrently, it keeps the tongue, buccal tissues, and oral mucosa away from the working area, ensuring optimal visibility and access. Additionally, the dental mirror boasts the capability to illuminate dark or obscured regions, further enhancing the clinician's ability to conduct thorough evaluations and procedures with precision.
