| Summary: | Robot-assisted dental surgery has gained significant attention in the field of dental implant therapy as an alternative to conventional free-hand surgery. It addresses challenges faced by human operators, such as limited visibility, operator fatigue, and lack of experience, which can lead to errors. Dental implant robots offer improved precision, efficiency, and stability, enhancing implant accuracy and reducing surgical risks. Accurate placement of dental implants is crucial to avoid complications during and after surgery. Robotic guidance in dental implant surgery provides several benefits. Firstly, the robotic arm offers haptic feedback, allowing physical guidance when placing the implant in the desired position. Secondly, a patient tracker integrated into the robotic system monitors patient movement and provides real-time feedback on a screen. This feature ensures that the surgeon is aware of any changes and can adjust accordingly. Lastly, the robotic system operates under human-robot collaboration, with the surgeon maintaining control and oversight throughout the procedure. Therefore, the objective of the current study is to review the dental implant robots, as well as accuracy and efficiency (e.g. operation and preparation time) of robot-assisted dental implant surgery procedures. |
