FEIX, Letícia Moreira et al. Operating microscope in Endodontics: visual magnification and luminosity. RSBO (Online) [online]. 2010, vol.7, n.3, pp. 340-348. ISSN 1984-5685.
INTRODUCTION: The surgical microscope has been used in Endodontics in order to minimize the obscurity of the surgical field, because it provides a high magnification and luminosity, thereby enhancing the procedures performed and providing a final result of higher quality. OBJECTIVE AND LITERATURE REVIEW: The objective of this study was to review the literature by addressing the current situation of the operating microscope in Endodontics, emphasizing its advantages and limitations. Despite being a technological tool that is relatively costly and that requires a period of learning and adaptation, the use of this apparatus has been spreading gradually. CONCLUSION: The importance of magnification is scientifically based in Dentistry, in such a way that its use has provided significant improvement to Endodontics with regards to vision and lighting of the operative field, by offering better quality of work with proportional success rates in treatments, besides improving communication between professionals and patients and assisting in the documentation for legal purposes.
