摘要
A tandem scanning reflected light microscope (TSM) has been used to study the cutting interactions of dental burs with enamel. Confocal microscopy produces high‐resolution images of subsurface structures in semi‐transparent specimens such as teeth. The TSM has a real‐time imaging ability which allows the visualization of the high‐speed failure of a substrate which is being machined. This paper describes the criteria for successful imaging and their implementation in the design of a stage for controlling these cutting interactions. Examples of the results achieved are given and further applications for this technique in the field of biomaterials suggested. 1990 Blackwell Science Ltd
