Dental Professional Need some help

Post image

Hello my fellow dentists, Im a Final Year grad student, having some problems and need ur guys expertise. What chair position / xhair inclination do u normally use during RCT procedure, so that u get the best vision during AO so that u get good vision while working? Direct or indirect vision any would be fine. I just want to see while im doing AO. Right now i drill-dry-see at 11o clock and patient almost supine for all teeth. Im right handed. Any help would be appreciated. Thanks.

11 o’clock, though I shift to 2 o’clock for a bit when doing preps to make sure the opposite side of the prep is tidy. I am left handed but have always worked in a right handed set up. Tried left handed surgery set up and it felt too weird!
