Dentist training now come to more advanced. The novice dentists will soon get the practice on Simroid, a robotic dental patient. Simroid was shown at the 2007 International Robot Exhibition in Tokyo. The bot can follow spoken instruction, closely monitor a dentist’s performance during mock treatments, and react in a human-like way to mouth pain. This is going to help dental trainees learn how to communicate with the patients. One more cool stuff about this bot will be sensors, she can simulate a gagging reflex incase the dentist inserts the dental instruments too far into her mouth.
