“…Meanwhile, implant planning may be performed before surgery. To date, the use of commercially available robotics has not been widely validated in clinical trials, especially in implant dentistry [ 15 , 16 ]. Regarding the application of autonomous robotic surgery systems, there is also a lack of clinical outcomes based on evidence-based medicine.…”

“…In this context, a robot-assisted system is commercially available for dental implant surgery. In 2017, the first robotic surgery system (Yomi) was approved by the Food and Drug Administration in the United States [ 15 , 16 ]. As a semi-active robot-assistance system, the haptic robotic guidance consists of a coordinate measurement machine arm and an operational arm, which provide physical (haptic) feedback and visual guidance for the surgeon during implant osteotomy [ 17 ].…”

Robotic systems have emerged in dental implant surgery due to their accuracy. Autonomous robotic surgery may offer unprecedented advantages over conventional alternatives. This clinical protocol was used to show the feasibility of autonomous robotic surgery for immediately loaded implant-supported full-arch prostheses in the maxilla. This case report demonstrated the surgical protocol and outcomes in detail, highlighting the pros and cons of the autonomous robotic system. Within the limitations of this study, autonomous robotic surgery could be a feasible alternative to computer-assisted guided implant surgery.

Change in our world is happening quickly. For dentistry, this is no exception, and now is the time to foster new opportunities. Advances in the foundational science of dental, oral, and craniofacial health are expanding and enabling personalized care built on strong discoveries in the fields of microbiology, immunology, and neuroscience. Digital communication through electronic health records, patient portals, and teledentistry is emerging as vital new armamentarium for contemporary dental practice. Wearables linked with smartphone apps are trending to monitor pain levels, postoperative symptoms, wound healing, and home oral health habits. Oral fluid diagnostics are rapidly surfacing for use in diagnostics, drug testing, and hormone detection. Manipulation of the oral microbiome is under investigation for caries management and for potential impact on systemic conditions. Resolving mediators of inflammation are promising for addressing the chronic inflammation that plagues periodontal patients. New imaging modalities paired with digital approaches and 3-dimensional printing are formulating disruptions in the technical aspects of dentistry. Augmented reality and virtual reality are providing great potential as teaching tools for dental students and bear promise for lifelong learning for providers. Optimization of information technology and the incorporation of data science partnered with artificial intelligence and machine learning to improve patient care in a learning health care system approach will benefit large numbers of patients. These are exciting times for our profession, yet we need to navigate these paths carefully. Technology needs to significantly and positively change the experience of those involved (patients, dentists, staff, payors). New technologies need to be backed with solid research and implementation science. Automation should focus on improving care with attention to expanding care to the underserved and not lose the critical human connection that our patients need. There is great potential in the emerging innovations yet also great responsibility to ensure they are evidence based on rigorous science and deployable with equity and sensitivity. Knowledge Transfer Statement: This article discusses innovations in technology and treatments that have enormous potential to revolutionize our dental care, including novel concepts in electronic health records, communication between dentists and patients, biologics around diagnosis and treatment, digital dentistry, and, finally, the real-time optimization of information technology. The early implementation and validation of these innovations can drive down their costs and provide better dental and medical services to all members of our society.

“…With the development of robotics, robot‐assisted implant surgery as a new solution, can provide reliable operation in narrow spaces, reduce work intensity, and help to lower the shortage of dentists. Given these potential advantages, the robotic solution should be exploited and is likely to become the mainstream in the future 9,10 …”

BackgroundThis study aims to develop a new dental implant robotic system (DIRS) to relieve the burden and enhance the quality of dental implant surgery.MethodsThe implanting actuator and system controller are two parts. The implanting actuator is designed on the basis of the RCM mechanism, with its kinematics modelled. Besides, a multi‐DOF admittance control strategy and a hybrid position‐admittance control strategy were designed, endowing the actuator with environmental compliance.ResultsIn force sensing, about 97% of mixed force/torque are eliminated. Then, 30 groups of implantation are done, of which 15 groups are simple implantation, while another 15 groups are force‐based implantation. The results show that the average contact force/torque can be reduced by 73.03% and 62.66%, and the peak contact force/torque can be reduced by 68.26% and 50.46%.ConclusionsThe results of preliminary experiments validate the effectiveness of DIRS, which has great potential to assist dentists with higher efficiency, better quality, and lower burden.
