A front-surface mirror reflects off the front face, removing that ghosting entirely, and costs more.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch4\u003eDo these fit my existing handles?\u003c\/h4\u003e\u003cp\u003eThey use the standard threaded fitting, so they screw onto conventional mouth mirror handles including our hollow 12cm handle.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch4\u003eWhen should a mirror be replaced?\u003c\/h4\u003e\u003cp\u003eOnce the surface is scratched, clouded or pitted. A degraded mirror makes indirect vision harder and is the reason most practices buy heads by the box rather than singly.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch4\u003eWhat material is this instrument made from?\u003c\/h4\u003e\u003cp\u003eA glass plane mirror set into a stainless steel rim with a standard threaded stem, and it withstands repeated autoclave sterilisation.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eStocked alongside our hollow mirror handles and complete mirror head and handle sets.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cem\u003eManufactured by InstruDental, UK specialists in dental hand instruments.\u003c\/em\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"INSTRUDENTAL","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":53739018191185,"sku":"111315BX","price":5.99,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true}],"url":"https:\/\/theinstrudental.co.uk\/products\/mouth-mirrors-plane-no-5-box-of-12-pcs","provider":"InstruDental","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
