The camera
ThirdEye -
intra-oral shots from extra-oral !
There are plenty intra
oral cameras on the market
today. They are useful for documentation of findings and for
patient education and patient motivation.
But, what if you want to document
whole treatments like extensive prosthodontic, orthodontic or
surgical treatments or your prophylaxis in whole and with audio ? What
if you want to record your patientsŽ educations
to proof valid evidence in
possible cases of recourse. What if you want to to demostrate your
skills to your audience in live transmissions during educational
courses
Intra oral cameras are not suited for shooting and recording complete
examinations, prophylaxis sessions, or whole treatments. Though being
video cameras intra oral cameras are only suitable to grab still
images.
Believe us, today there are better ways to take still images than with a
video camera !

The ThirdEye dental camera
is miniature video camera !
With a weight of only 70 grams the camera can be mounted to
any dental light on the market.
A ball joint, which can be arrested in two planes, assures that
the optical axis of the camera can be adjusted to the central beam
of the dental light.
Once the ball joint
is locked in the right position - the camera is ready for use.
All objects shined
upon the beam of your dental light will be displayed on the monitor
screen.

With our ThirdEye
dental camera you now have a camera at hand, which
permanently displays or records live intra oral images.
And you must not interrupt your work while recording.How
does it work ?
As your dental light - guided by your assistant
or by yourself
- should be aimed to your working area at any time - and the optical
axis of the lens of the camera is adjusted to the centre of this
light beam, the camera always shows images from within your
working area on the monitor. There will be no
disturbing shadows on the teeth. You have complete control of
the images recorded by the camera without having the need to watch
the monitor screen. If there is enough light shed onto the object
youŽre working on (tooth surface, crown, gums...) - which is
crucial for a good treatment - the camera will deliver perfect
intra oral shots. |

Because of the wide depth
of focus (the depth of focus depending on the working
distance and the illumination, measered in lux, of your dental light)
requires only little focussing by turning the lens.
At a working distance of 60 cm the ThirdEye
dental camera can depict a whole quadrant on the
monitor screen. The good depth of focus ensures sharp details of all
the teeth from the first incissors to the last molars. |

At an object distance of
30 cm a molar with its neighbouring teeth can be depicted
format filling on the monitor screen. On a 14" monitor screen
(diagonal of 38 cm) that is about a magnification of 1:12.
So, why not using your ThirdEye dental camera as a surgical
microscope ? |

Unique among all the
dental cameras on the market is the ability of the ThirdEye dental
camera to shoot and record video while working
without having the need to interrupt your work.
Contamination of the lens because of the water spray of your turbine
or hand piece wonŽt be a problem. at a working distance of 50
or 60 cm. Tooth surfaces
or other details only be seen with your dental mirror can be shown
on the monitor screen by reflecting the beam of the dental light to
the tooth surface with your dental mirror.
If, in this cases, the head of your
dental light should be positioned at the side of your head the image
youŽll see on your dental mirror, is what youŽll get on the
monitor screen.
