Detailed Solution

The kind of mirror used by dentists to see a magnified image of a patient's tooth is a concave mirror.
Concave mirrors are utilized by dentists to visualize an enlarged image of a tooth because it produces an enlarged image of an object that is placed within its focus. When the object is placed between the focus and the pole of the mirror, the image formed after reflection from the mirror will be virtual and erect, and enlarged in size.
