Abstract
A dental mirror configured so that it is easier and more comfortable to manipulate than prior art mirrors. The dental mirror includes a handle which is attached to the mirror section with an s-shaped gooseneck so that the handle is offset upwardly. Additionally, grooves on the bottom and a finger rest on top at the distal end of the handle may be provided to further enhance it manipulatability.
