CV
Dr. Tınaz was born in Aydın in 1967. After completing his first education period in this city, he entered Gazi University Faculty of Dentistry in 1984 for undergraduate education and graduated in 1989. After three years of private dentistry and military service, he returned to the academy in 1992 and accomplished his doctoral programme in 1998. Receiving the title of Associate Professor in 2003, Dr, Tınaz was promoted to Professor in 2007. In 2011, he established his own clinic as part-time faculty member. He still continues his research and education activities in the Endodontics department of the same University. The areas he is more interested in are apex locators, operating dental microscopes, and vertical obturation techniques. He is a member of European Endodontic Association and Turkish Endodontic Association. Between 2017-2020, he served as head of department of endodontics Gazi University Dental Faculty. He served a board member of Turkish Endodontic Association. He was a member of the board of directors of the Ankara Chamber of Dentists and chairman of the education commission in the 18th and 19th terms.
Using of operating dental microscope and loups in Dentistry
The retina, nestled within our eyes, serves as the primary determinant of our visual acuity, transforming light wavelengths into electrical signals. The perceptible spectrum of light, falling within the range of approximately 400 to 700 nanometres, marks the boundaries of our visual perception. When confronted with the task of discerning minute details, the concept of resolution emerges as pivotal. Resolution, in essence, encapsulates the optical system's prowess in distinguishing discrete entities. For the average individual, the eye's resolution capability hovers around a mere 0.2 millimetres, implying that objects must be at least this distance apart for differentiation. In numerous medical procedures, naked-eye observation falls short when it comes to discerning areas smaller than this threshold, necessitating the aid of specialized instruments to enhance visual clarity. For instance, the precision offered by a microscope can elevate resolution to a remarkable 0.006 millimetres.
Conversely, depth of field embodies the lens system's ability to maintain focus on objects spanning varying distances without necessitating positional adjustments. With increasing magnification, the field of view narrows, potentially inducing ocular fatigue. Dentists, for instance, often experience strain in their neck and back due to prolonged use of high-magnification lenses. Utilizing a microscope can alleviate discomfort and reduce fatigue by promoting ergonomic positioning.
In this presentation operating dental microscopes and loups will be discussed.
