Abstract
Methods used in evaluation of high-speed dental instruments at the Armed Forces Institute
of Pathology during a two-year period are presented as possible guides for future
tests. These include the methods and results of a human sound experiment to determine
the effects of high-speed instruments on thresholds of hearing.
The biologic effects of high speeds on the dental pulp were investigated by means
of both animal and human experiments; the pulpal changes are discussed and microphotographs
are presented.
The views expressed in this article are those of the authors and do not necessarily
represent the views of the Armed Forces Institute of Pathology and the Department
of the Army.
