“…The present data show that the performance of the control (freehand) group was similar to that of previously reported trials Implant length 8/10 mm 1/9 2/8 (Tattan et al, 2020). Data for the test group showed significantly less positional accuracy compared to reports from case series (Chen et al, 2023;Qiao et al, 2023;S. Yang et al, 2023).…”

AimTo compare the implant accuracy, safety and morbidity between robot‐assisted and freehand dental implant placement.Materials and MethodsSubjects requiring single‐site dental implant placement were recruited. Patients were randomly allocated to freehand implant placement and robot‐assisted implant placement. Differences in positional accuracy of the implant, surgical morbidity and complications were assessed. The significance of intergroup differences was tested with an intention‐to‐treat analysis and a per‐protocol (PP) analysis (excluding one patient due to calibration error).ResultsTwenty patients (with a median age of 37, 13 female) were included. One subject assigned to the robotic arm was excluded from the PP analysis because of a large calibration error due to the dislodgement of the index. For robot‐assisted and freehand implant placement, with the PP analysis, the median (25th–75th percentile) platform global deviation, apex global deviation and angular deviation were 1.23 (0.9–1.4) mm/1.9 (1.2–2.3) mm (p = .03, the Mann–Whitney U‐test), 1.40 (1.1–1.6) mm/2.1 (1.7–3.9) mm (p < .01) and 3.0 (0.9–6.0)°/6.7 (2.2–13.9)° (p = .08), respectively. Both methods showed limited damage to the alveolar ridge and had similar peri‐ and post‐operative morbidity and safety.ConclusionsRobot‐assisted implant placement enabled greater positional accuracy of the implant compared to freehand placement in this pilot trial. The robotic system should be further developed to simplify surgical procedures and improve accuracy and be validated in properly sized trials assessing the full spectrum of relevant outcomes.

“…The cobot architecture employed in this study is a novel application of an approach to surgical robotics that leaves fully the control to the surgeon (Yang et al, 2017); this compares to autonomous or semi-autonomous robots that have also been applied to dental implant placement (Yang et al, 2022(Yang et al, , 2023. Its main objective is to assist the surgeon with overcoming the recognized limitation of a free-hand dental implant placement approach: its inaccuracy (Smitkarn et al, 2019).…”

“…In a previous case report applying robot-assisted implant placement in edentulous arch, the platform deviation, apex deviation, and angular deviation were 1.04 (0.70) mm, 0.95 (0.73) mm, and 2.56 (1.48)° (Bolding & Reebye, 2022). A recent case series included 10 patients with single missing teeth and reported a platform deviation, apex deviation, and angular deviation of 0.74 (0.29) mm, 0.73 (0.28) mm, and 1.11 (0.46)° (Yang et al, 2023). The implant positional accuracy was better in the present clinical study.…”

ObjectivesMultiple generations of medical robots have revolutionized surgery. Their application to dental implants is still in its infancy. Co‐operating robots (cobots) have great potential to improve the accuracy of implant placement, overcoming the limitations of static and dynamic navigation. This study reports the accuracy of robot‐assisted dental implant placement in a preclinical model and further applies the robotic system in a clinical case series.Materials and MethodsIn model analyses, the use of a lock‐on structure at robot arm‐handpiece was tested in resin arch models. In a clinical case series, patients with single missing teeth or edentulous arch were included. Robot‐assisted implant placement was performed. Surgery time was recorded. Implant platform deviation, apex deviation, and angular deviation were measured. Factors influencing implant accuracy were analyzed.ResultsThe in vitro results showed that with a lock‐on structure, the mean (SD) of platform deviation, apex deviation, and angular deviation were 0.37 (0.14) mm, 0.44 (0.17) mm, and 0.75 (0.29)°, respectively. Twenty‐one patients (28 implants) were included in the clinical case series, 2 with arches and 19 with single missing teeth. The median surgery time for single missing teeth was 23 (IQ range 20–25) min. The surgery time for the two edentulous arches was 47 and 70 min. The mean (SD) of platform deviation, apex deviation, and angular deviation was 0.54 (0.17) mm, 0.54 (0.11) mm, and 0.79 (0.22)° for single missing teeth and for 0.53 (0.17) mm, 0.58 (0.17) mm, and 0.77 (0.26)° for an edentulous arch. Implants placed in the mandible had significantly larger apex deviation than those in the maxilla.ConclusionCobot‐assisted dental implant placement showed excellent positional accuracy and safety in both the in vitro study and the clinical case series. More technological development and clinical research are needed to support the introduction of robotic surgery in oral implantology. Trial registered in ChiCTR2100050885.
