THEORETICAL-PRACTICAL COURSE
Operative Microscopy
Integration of the microscope in endodontic practice
Seeing is believing, seeing is healing
The operating microscope has revolutionized modern endodontics, allowing visualization of anatomical details otherwise invisible and performing procedures with millimetric precision.
This intensive one-day course is designed for those who want to integrate the microscope into their daily practice, from optical physics to chairside ergonomics.

One intensive day
Optics, ergonomics and operative microscope workflow
1 day- • Differences between monocular and binocular vision: stereoscopic perception, accommodation, convergence and visual fatigue
- • Magnification systems in dentistry: loupes and microscopes, categories (diagnostic and operative), levels of use and observation
- • The microscope in dentistry: from luxury tool to clinical necessity
- • Structure and optical components: optical body, lenses, aberrations, resolution, depth of field and relationship with magnification
- • Optics: objectives, binocular tubes, multifocal optics and accessories
- • Focus systems: manual and motorized
- • Illumination: halogen, xenon and LED light, light concentrator and double iris diaphragm
- • Documentation systems: video cameras, digital cameras and DSLRs with related challenges and image management
- • Ergonomics and positioning of clinician, instruments and assistant
- • Preliminary adjustments: parfocality, focus and micro-focus
- • Operative positions in different quadrants: direct and indirect vision
- • Use of rotary, ultrasonic and dental micro-instrumentation
- • Chairside assistance: differences between co-observation and traditional assistance; the assistant's role
Hands-on Practice
