Abstract

A dental procedure simulator (1) is disclosed comprising a computer (80) configured to simulate a dental treatment, a parallel robot (40) providing haptic force feedback, and a handpiece (30) coupled to the robot by a mechanism offering multiple rotational degrees of freedom. A display screen (9) presents a virtual environment, the images of which are reflected to the user by a partially transparent reflective element (7) while simultaneously allowing direct viewing of a real workspace (W). This mixed-reality arrangement enables the user to see both virtual objects, including a virtual handpiece co-located with the real handpiece (30), and physical components such as phantom jaws (13, 14) or a phantom head (10). Sensors may detect movement and orientation of the handpiece and phantom jaws, allowing the virtual environment to be updated accordingly. The system supports realistic simulation through combined visual and haptic feedback and may additionally provide training using physical phantom teeth (22).
