Dental microscopes use optical magnification and illumination to provide an enlarged view of the working field during dental examination and procedures. Binocular optics, objective lenses, and adjustable magnification determine image scale, field of view, and working distance, while coaxial LED illumination directs light along the viewing axis. Selection factors include magnification range, focal distance, eyepiece design, illumination system, arm movement, mounting method, and documentation options. This category includes chair-mounted, floor-standing, trolley, and desktop configurations, with selected models offering cameras or recording interfaces.
