Some of the specialized Dental or Medical lenses I have seen, are in fact
just like an 100 mm macro lens optically. However, many have a built in
flash that surrounds the lens to allow flat lighting for the subject. This
would be like buying a regular 100 macro lens and an AF 140C flash that has
a circular flash head that clips on the the front of the lens.
...cheers!

Just a plain old 100mm macro lens...
Sell it to the Dental Professionals (dentists) as a pro tool at a 'special'
price (big $$$). They use it for showing the work they did and getting
approval for work they will do from the medical payment authority (insurance
plan).
(Think of it like getting approval from the state before you proceed with
the
work if you have nationalized medical care.)

1) the dental close-up lens and dental macro lens - you don't try to tell

they are supposed to take photos of one's teeth, do you? what is so
special
about them, that makes the name dental necessary? aren't they just
ordinary close-up lenses and macro lenses?
