As one of the caries treatments, the elimination of infected tooth substances with dental cutting turbine is the most popular. As its conventional teaching method is somewhat subjective and/or abstract, it takes much time for dental students to master this cutting skill. Then, it is strongly required to improve the cutting instructions in dental education, using quantitative analysis of cutting motion. To meet such educational demands, we constructed an optical motion capture-based system for simultaneously measuring the 3D motion of the operator’s upper extremity and a dental cutting turbine during tooth cutting motion. Using this system, we compared both the speed of the turbine head and the posture of the upper extremity between experienced dentists and dental students in this study. Consequently, the dentists tended to move the turbine head more slowly and steadily as well as to move the upper extremity more stably particularly in the internal-external rotation in the shoulder and the radial-ulnar flexion and palmar-dorsal flexion in the wrist, compared to the students. These suggest that the speed of the turbine head and the stability of the upper extremity should be instructed more concretely in the education of the cavity preparation. |
