Does your nation use dental internment?

Postby Odonzia » Thu Jul 19, 2012 1:06 am

In Odonzia the prison assumes the particular form of dental internment. According to the most important psychologists and criminologists, a year in dental internment corresponds to ten years in prison and the dental internment treatments are so devastating that the recurrence rate is only the 0,175%. In dental internment the prisoners undergo to very dolorous dental treatments for 18 hours evey day. The internment begins with the getting of a very structured and dolorous dental brace that is tightened every day for a week. After begins the administration of hyperesthetics, medicines which increase the pain perception between 75 000% and 200 000%. Under the effect of hyperesthetics, prisoners undergo dental treatment like drillings, devitalizations or extracions with a pain very intensified, in fact under the effect of hyperesthetics a person aches a lot only if the dentist touches with a latex glove one of prisoner's teeth. For all prisoners dental internment is a terrifying experience, so is equally effective.

Does your nation use dental internment? After this explanation, is your nation going to use dental internment?

Socially-liberal capitalist democracy DOES NOT equate to free society.

Contrary to popular belief, National Socialists aren't racists. They simply hate their own race less than others.

Dental internment is classified as torture within our nation, which is illegal unless employed under Clause 36, National Security Act. Even then, it is used only on the most stubborn of terrorists.

Minoa has already banned torture and harmonised nearly all of our prison system with the Norwegians. Just one remind in line with USA's ADX Florence and that is only for convicted war criminals.

It's possible, given that Maltropia has privatised prisons, that it might be used somewhere, but it seems an utterly barbaric practice and as such probably, and hopefully, not.
