ABSTRACT:
An attachment is provided for releasably and adjustably mounting a mirror to a dental suction tip. The attachment includes a collar that will spring clip to the suction tip along the length dimension thereof and will permit both axial and rotational positioning of the attachment on the suction tip. A stud shaft extends from the collar to a first ball joint at one end of an extension arm. The other end of the extension arm includes a second ball joint which is connected to a mirror by a short stub shaft. The stub shaft is mounted to a marginal edge portion of a mirror backing which is crimped over the peripheral edge of the mirror plate. The mirror can be selectively positioned about the pivot points of the ball joints and suction tip to selectively orient the mirror in relation to the suction tip, and to afford a holder, a reflected view of a desired area within a dental patient's mouth.
