[Modern aspects of dental photography]

Potential areas of application for dental photography were described. The choice of the camera body depends on the intended use. The Medical Nikkor 5.6/200 and the Yashica Medical 100 lenses as well as an extension tube with approximately 100 mm focal distance may be used; the latter is best combined with a circular flash unit or one to two standard flash units. A cheek-holder and mirror are necessary. A few practical tips were presented.
