Mouth opening training has been performed as a part of the physical therapy for the treatment of mandibular movement disorder. The mouth opening exercisers used in the therapy are based on a simple mechanism that increases intermaxillary and mouth opening distances.<br>We have been in charge of research and development for a mouth opening/closing training robot based on the mechanism of a mastication robot that allows computer-controlled reproduction of physiological mandibular movement (Waseda Jaw, 1986-).<br>This paper outlines the development of the 4th mouth opening/closing robot, Waseda Yamanashi-4 (WY-4). This computer-controlled robot provides 3 degrees of freedom for mandibular movement, that is, opening/closing movement, anteroposterior movement, and lateral movement. The robot has benn developed to compensate for lost function in patients with mandibular movement disorder and to provide them with natural mandibular movement. At the same time, the robot aims at introducing and spreading medical robotics in the dental field. Particularly, it aims at establishing dental robotics. The system has been used for patients with articular mouth opening disturbance by temporomandibular joint disease as well as for those with cicatricial mouth opening disturbance by maxillofacial injuly. The system has been effective for the physical therapy in the treatment of mandibular movement disorder.
