dental drill
Tooth-boring instrument
A dental drill is the rotating instrument dentists use to remove decay, shape teeth for fillings, or prepare surfaces for dental work.
The high-pitched whine of the dental drill has made it a symbol of dental anxiety: The sound of the dental drill always makes me tense up.
