Solution
The correct option is A concave
- Concave mirrors are used by dentists because they are converging mirrors and reflect light to the focal point.
- While convex mirrors make things appear smaller, concave ones magnify the images.
- The surface of a concave mirror is bent inward and outward. By using this type of mirror, dentists can see the tooth larger if there is any infection or germ attack happening.
Hence, option A is correct.
