Robotics in dentistry has advanced significantly, integrating artificial intelligence (AI), haptic feedback, and real-time imaging to enhance precision, efficiency, and patient outcomes. Elaborating the look at the forefront of dental robotics in the most recent times are Fully Autonomous Robotic Dental Procedures utilizing 3D volumetric imaging and optical coherence tomography (OCT) to plan and execute tasks like tooth preparation and crown placement with remarkable speed and accuracy. The AI-Powered Robotic Systems for Implant Surgerycombines preoperative 3D imaging with real-time haptic feedback to guide clinicians during implant placement.
The adoption of robotic systems like Yomi has enhanced the precision and efficiency of implant surgeries. Clinicians report increased confidence in performing complex cases, improved surgical outcomes, and enhanced patient satisfaction. Yomi utilizes AI algorithms to analyse preoperative CBCT scans, facilitating the creation of detailed 3D models of the patient's oral anatomy. This allows for precise virtual planning of implant positions, angulations, and depths, tailored to the individual's bone structure and prosthetic requirements. It provides haptic feedback ensuring adherence to the surgical plan, enhancing accuracy and reducing the risk of deviations that could compromise implant stability or harm adjacent anatomical structures.
A haptic bilateral teleoperation system (HBTS) has been developed to improve free-hand dental procedures providing tactile feedback and visual guidance, allowing clinicians to perform tasks with enhanced precision and accuracy. Advanced intraoral scanners can now integrate AI to provide detailed 3D models of the oral cavity, aiding in diagnosis and treatment planning.
These advancements signify a transformative era in dentistry, where robotics and AI converge to redefine patient care. As technology continues to evolve, we can anticipate even more sophisticated applications, further enhancing the precision, efficiency, and accessibility of dental treatments.
