Intraoral Occlusal Reflector Mirrors

Professional occlusal photography mirrors that deliver sharp, distortion-controlled reflections for upper/lower occlusal and buccal shots. Designed for consistent shade/value capture and clean case documentation. Smooth edges for comfort, matte contact areas for stable handling.

Key Features

• High-clarity reflection for accurate enamel texture, line angles, and marginal integrity in occlusal views.

• Profiles for the whole arch: upper occlusal, lower occlusal, and buccal/lateral views.

• Comfort-shaped edges and slim profile to aid cheek/tongue retraction.

• Non-glare handling zones help avoid stray fingerprints and micro-vibrations during capture.

• Works with macro lenses + ring/twin flash and cross-polarizing setups.

• Reusable photography aids; extra-oral positioning only.

Note: Follow your clinic’s IPC policy and the specific manufacturer’s IFU regarding disinfection or heat sterilization.

Product Description

Occlusal mirrors are the backbone of reliable dental photography. These reflectors produce a crisp, uniform image across the arch so you can read incisal edges, occlusal morphology, proximal contacts, and restoration margins without color shifts or ghosting. The shapes and sizes support upper and lower occlusal documentation as well as buccal views, keeping tongues, cheeks, and palatal tissues out of frame for faster post-processing and consistent case presentations.

Pair with standardized exposure (e.g., f/22, 1/125–1/160, ISO 100—adjust per system) and retractors to build a repeatable imaging workflow for treatment planning, shade communication, before/after cases, and social media.

What’s Included

• 1 × Upper Occlusal mirror

• 1 × Lower Occlusal mirror

• 1 × Buccal/Lateral mirror
  (Some bundles ship as 2-pc sets; select the variant that fits your kit.)

Sizing Guide

• Small (Pedo/Small Adult): narrower arch coverage; easy insertion

• Medium (Standard Adult): balanced coverage vs. comfort

• Large (Wide Arch): maximized occlusal field; requires adequate retraction

How to Use (Quick Guide)

1. Retract cheeks/lips; lightly dry the field.

2. Warm the mirror slightly (anti-fog) if permitted by IFU.

3. Position the occlusal mirror to capture the full arch; keep soft tissues outside the frame.

4. Shoot with your standardized settings; avoid touching the reflective area.

5. Disinfect per protocol; store in a soft sleeve to protect the surface.

Care & Handling

• Disinfection: Use approved surface agents; avoid harsh solvents/abrasives that scratch or dull reflectivity.

• Sterilization: Only autoclave if your specific SKU is explicitly rated for steam sterilization.

• Storage: Sleeve or pouch; keep dry; avoid stacking bare surfaces together.

FAQs

Do these help with shade accuracy?
Yes—clean, uniform reflections improve value control and minimize flare, especially with cross-polarized setups.

Are they autoclavable?
Only if the manufacturer rates your exact model. Otherwise, use surface disinfection per IPC.

Which shape should I start with?
Most clinics begin with Upper + Lower Occlusal; add Buccal for lateral composites, ortho cases, and smile documentation.

How do I prevent fogging?
Pre-warm the mirror and minimize breath exposure; anti-fog gels/sprays can be used if compatible with the mirror material and your protocol.
