Your Dentist, and Robot, Will See You Now
Goldman Dental School embraces digital dentistry, with robots, 3-D, and more
The robotic arm with a drill for a finger hovers over the patient in the dental chair. The arm extends from a white machine, called Yomi, that’s as tall as Andrew Henry’s chest and as wide as his outstretched arms. Henry, a BU Henry M. Goldman School of Dental Medicine clinical associate of oral and maxillofacial surgery, positions Yomi’s drill near the patient’s mouth.
