Abstract :
The paper describes research on a dental robotics approach to a human jaw motion control system from the robotics field. A patient robot and doctor robot are useful for developing the total model of human jaw. The authors have developed a mastication robot and a mouth opening training robot which simulate patient and doctor respectively.
