An Age of Magic

Say aaaahhhh

To those of you who are scared of the dentists drill you may wish to block out all images as you read this. But then again, it could be of real benefit to you. And I promise it wont hurt…

The latest invention out of Japan is a robot ‘person’ who is designed for use by dental students. This robot is programmed to say ‘ouch’ when the student pokes and prods too close to a nerve or goes too deep with the drill. Stay in there, we’re nearly finished…

This robot, named Simroid, can alert the dental student when it feels discomfort as each tooth contains nerves just like our own. The whole venture is designed to teach students how to be more gentler with the focus on patient comfort rather than technical expertise.

Ok, how was that then?.

Now rinse and we are finished.
