SHOWA UNIVERSITY
Tmsuk Co., Ltd
Showa University (1-5-8, Hatanodai, Shinagawa-ku, Tokyo, Chairman, Mr. Katuji
Oguchi) introduces the dental patient robot which is produced by tmsuk co.,Ltd
(Munakata city, Fukuoka, CEO, Mr. Yoichi Takamoto).
Recently it is very important to keep the quality and safety of medical treatment
so that more advanced clinical ability has to be mastered and it is necessary to
evaluate clinical ability of medical student objectively.
So the department of Orthodontics, Showa University has developed the robot by
which students can earn the advanced clinical technique collaborating with Prof.
Takanishi, Depar tment of Modern Mechanical Engineer ing, Waseda University and
with Depar tment of Mechanical Systems Engineering, Kogakuin University while
applying simulation technology for over 10 years. Now Showa University and tmsuk have just completed the thir d generation r obot
for dental pat ient model cooper atively and the patient robot has been used for
ability examination in which the dental treatment was performed as in the actual
situation pr ecisely.
All of 88 students have treated the patient robot which reacted as real human
patient and have studied how-to avoid fault operation and have competed for
accur ate dental cur e.
To whom it may concern.
Showa University introduces dental patient robot.
The first humanoid robot for medical examinat ion in the world.
To give enough pr actical exper iences to dental students

This is the first examination in the world as big scale as ever.
Attendants from foreign medical universities have admired the result of robotics
examination at the demonstr ation.
There may be the first pr actical use of human oid robot in the world and it will boost
growing of robot industry by the proof of Showa University while contributing
advanced medical & dental tr aining.
OSCE(Objective Structured Clinical Examination) is the
ability examination before clinical training to evaluate
student’s intelligence of how-to treat patient including
communication. Showa University assigns students
OSCE to understand the importance of medical
tr eatment for pat ient and of compassion for patient.
Why the dental patient r obot is developed.
* Existing clinical training to use patient model mannequin.
At the fundamental training for dental student
it is general to use a mannequin for simulative
learning. But it is very difficult to study the r isk
of dental treatment and the concern to human
body and to oral soft tissue before the actual
patient treatment because the capacity of oral
cavity and angle of opening mouth are different
from mannequin and human and because it is
impossible to perform autonomous reaction as
human.
* The dental patient model robot developed with Waseda University and
Kogakuin University collabora tively.
Prof. Kotaro Maki, the department of Orthodontics,Showa University and Prof. Atsuo Takanishi,
Department of Modern Mechanical Engineering,
Waseda University and Ass. Prof. Hideaki Takanobu,
Department of Mechanical Systems Engineering,
Kogakuin University are major members to develop
the dental patient model robot. At the first step they
developed the masticating robot to investigate the
cause of mastication impediment and to support recovery then they have
tr ansferred to developed the dental patient model robot. It is just proved that the patient model robot contributes to grow up clinical
technique including considering safety and to brush up dental students’ ability.

Specification of dental patient model robot “Ms Hanako Showa”.
Whole body model with 157cm tall. Surface of skin is soft special resin.
Female model is suitable to learn Soft tissue as tongue is silicon.
careful tr eatment as no touch of br east. Mater ial is made of Kyoto Kagfaku.
The model robot pu ts on hair, clothes and accessor ies to be seemed in real situation
and for consideration not to drop fluid medicine and coloring materials on face,
head and upper body. Fr ee joints of the pat ient m odel robot.

Totally 8 free joints in Eyelid, eye,
chins, tongue and neck.
It is possible to control all of autonomous
action (physiological phenomenon) by
instructor using touch panel anytime easily.
And it is possible to make sudden neck turn,sneeze and cough as if the patient robot feels
actual pain.
It is possible to control the move of
blinks, eyes and tongue on the
patient robot as autonomous action
of physiological phenomenon by
original programming.

The robot shows fatigue by opening
mouth at the dental treatment and
she vomits if student touches her
uvula with sensor.
Artificial saliva is secreted and accumulated
inside of cheek mucous membrane.
