The Advanced Endodontics Of New York Office Now Uses Fiber-Optic Lights During Treatments!

NEW YORK - Dec. 29, 2022 - PRLog -- Lighting can make a huge difference during advanced endodontic procedures, such as apicoectomies. This is one of the reasons why Dr. Mahua Bose Pillai at the Advanced Endodontics of New York office has brought fiber-optic lights to the practice. Thanks to the benefits of fiber-optic lights, Dr. Pillai can give patients excellent treatment experiences and outcomes.

Fiber-optic lights are highly useful in endodontic procedures because they offer several advantages beyond traditional ceiling lighting. For one, fiber-optic lights can be used in tandem with a surgical microscope to promote heightened surgical site visibility. Surgical microscopes can magnify objects, but they require adequate lighting. Otherwise, the images may look blurry or can be difficult to read. Consequently, the skilled endodontist can use fiber-optic lights to help them detect small fissures, decay, plaque, infections, and other oral anomalies either with the naked eye or with the assistance of a surgical microscope or dental loupe.

Another advantage of fiber-optic lights is that since most fiber-optic lighting sources are built to be maneuvered, they give the doctor a lot of flexibility. It is critical to avoid casting shadows over the operating site, if at all possible. With the fiber-optic lighting solution, the light beam projection can be narrowed and focused exactly where it can be most beneficial to the endodontist. Some fiber-optic lights are narrow enough to be able to be used inside a patient's mouth in addition to other specialty tools.

When performing a custom apicoectomy procedure, Dr. Pillai leverages optic-fiber lights while moving through the surgical process. After accessing the affected root through the patient's gum, Dr. Pillai can use the optic-fiber light to better see the root tip and surrounding tissue structures. As the fillings are placed along the root canal tips, it is ensured that all tips are properly sealed. At every stage of the apicoectomy treatment, Dr. Pillai depends upon the fiber-optic light to highlight even the smallest details of the patient's mouth.
