Intraoral camera
Intraoral cameras (IOCs) are cameras used by dentists or doctors to show a patient the interior of their mouth, as an alternative to using a mirror. They were first introduced in 1989 and are now widely used in dental offices. IOCs allow the patient to see a clear picture of the inside of their mouth, aiding the dentist in consulting with them on various treatment options. Images can be saved to a patient's file for future reference.

gollark: So an annoying quirk of Rust is that lots of things have to have `_mut` versions because it has no way to be generic over mutableness, right?
gollark: I just had a cool* and good** idea.
gollark: My options are to:- have a big list of links with their own unique IDs, and then maps from each page to the IDs of links to/from that page- have maps from page ID to a list of links to/from that page, with no indirection
gollark: Hmm. I am not sure how Minoteaur should store links in memory.
gollark: I know.
