The aim of this study was to evaluate the trial Teaching Robot for the development of a contact-type measuring apparatus for using directly in the oral cavity. A standard model was used to mimic the dentition by placing an arrangement of three bearing balls. The diameters of the balls were measured. A practical dentition model was used. The coordinates were measured on the top of the buccal cusp of the right and left first premolars and the distal contact points of the right and left first molars and the mesial contact point of the right incisor. The arch width and length were calculated. The diameters of the bearing balls and the widths and lengths of the dental arches were not significantly different from the results of the XYZAX G-800D. Therefore, we suggest that the trial Teaching Robot has superior efficiency for measurements in oral cavity.
