The present invention relates to a hand held interproximal dental tool for detaching unwanted materials from a patient's teeth and to methods of manufacturing such tools. The interproximal dental tool includes a compact, ergonomically designed housing which is gripped by a dental practitioner during use and a blade extending from and structurally supported by the housing which includes serrations for cutting or abrasive materials for sanding unwanted material.

The present invention relates to a stripping tip for orthodontics and a manufacturing method thereof. The stripping tip includes a grinding blade provided with a grinding surface for grinding teeth, a holder comprising a grinding blade coupling portion coupled to the grinding blade and a connection coupling portion connected to the grinding blade coupling portion and coupled to a handle or handpiece, and a stiffness enhancement portion provided to a part of the grinding blade coupling portion coupled to the grinding blade to enhance stiffness of the part of the grinding blade coupling portion coupled to the grinding blade.

A robotic system includes a base, a grounding arm, a working arm, and one or more sensors. The grounding arm extends from the base and is configured to be coupled to a fixed structure within the mouth of the patient for establishing an origin for the robotic system. The working arm extends from the base and is configured to be coupled with one or more tools for use during an installation of a dental implant in the mouth. The one or more sensors are for monitoring positions of the grounding arm and/or the working arm and to generate positional data that is used to create a post-operative virtual three-dimensional model of at least a portion of the mouth of the patient.

A tool for interproximal reduction includes a handpiece and a substantially solid disk-shaped member. The hand tool has a motor coupled to a coupling member. The handpiece is for creating oscillating motion in an oscillation range of 90 degrees or less. The disk-shaped member has a front face and a rear face and defines two or more segments that are different from one another. Each segment has different properties comprising one or more of perforations, cutting surfaces, and abrasives. The disk-shaped member has a centrally disposed aperture for coupling to the handpiece with the coupling member. The properties only partially cover one or more of the front or rear face of the disk. The handpiece is configured to permit a user to position their fingers directly adjacent the dish-shaped member during operation of the handpiece.
