  • Patent number: 4872838
    Abstract: The present invention comprises an improved oral self inspection device that is versatile, inexpensive, and easy to use. The device consists of a small, cylindrical light source on which a small front primary or inspection mirror, a larger rear secondary or ocular mirror, and a cheek and tongue extender are mounted. Each of these implements is mounted at the end of an arm whose other end is rotatably and slideably mounted on the cylindrical light source. Each such arm is independently rotatable a full 360 degrees around the body of the cylindrical light source, such that the relative angular position between each of the implements is infinitely variable. Each of the arms is also independently slideable along the cylindrical light source, such that the relative separation between the implements can also be readily changed. The primary mirror may be attached to its mounting arm at a fixed angle, or the angle of tilt may be adjustable.
