dental drills

Cavity-clearing instruments

Dental drills are the small, high-speed rotating instruments dentists use to remove decay, shape teeth, and prepare surfaces for fillings or crowns.

The distinctive whine of a dental drill is associated with anxiety for many patients: I can handle the needle, but the sound of the drill gets me every time.
