Robot implant surgery “greatly enhances accuracy”

Robotic dental surgery presents a “promising progress” in dental implantation by reducing human error.

This was the conclusion from a team of researchers at the University Hospital at the University of Xi’an Jiaotong in China.

Following is a study that analyzed the accuracy of implant placement using a robotic system – called Remebot – compared to free hand surgery.

The R-Cais used consists of a primary unit that includes a robotic arm, a screen screen and an operating system. Other elements were a viewing device and a mounting index.

A total of 95 implants were placed in 65 patients, 50 of whom were placed in 35 patients using the Remebot robotic system and 45 implants were placed in 30 patients using free hand surgery.

The reflux analysis was chosen to evaluate the dimensions of the implants and the accuracy placement.

Robot surgery results

Multiple linear reflux resolution showed no statistically significant effect of prognosis (jaw type, side, location, implant diameter and length) on the platform, top and angular deviations in R-Cais group.

On the contrary, in the free hand group, the prediction variables, the type of jaw, the position of the implant and the diameter significantly affected the angular deviation. Higher angular deviations were observed in the jaw, anterior implants and narrower implants.

The researchers concluded: “This study shows that robotic implant surgery significantly improves the precision of implantation of implants compared to traditional free hand methods.

“The innovative use of robotic technology, coupled with a strong comparative analysis and comprehensive evaluation measurements, highlights R-CAIS’s potential to enhance clinical results in dental implantation.

“These findings provide a strong basis for future research and clinical application of robotic systems to dental surgery.”

Progress of dental robot

Last summer, a robotics system driven by AI-named “Robot Dentist”-he slaughtered his first fully automated dental process in a human being.

Designed by the perceptual, the system aims to complete the recovery procedures “a class of magnitude faster and more accurately than any person”.

Technology combines both the 3D imaging software driven by Ai and a robotic arm to perform dental procedures. In addition, it operates “even in the most important conditions of movement” with “unmatched speed and precision”.

This comes as a patient becomes the first child in London to undergo a business using a robotic surgical system.

The seven-year-old boy had a robotic assisted pelvis-a process that corrects a blockage between the kidney and the bladder.

It is performed at Evelina Children’s Hospital, surgery was performed using the versius surgical robotic system. This uses flexible, articulated weapons to facilitate more precision for surgeons during minimally invasive activities.
