“…The surge in the number of studies since its approval in 2009 further supports this observation. Furthermore, the development of robots in OMS and oral implantology [80][81][82][83][84][85][86][87][88][89][90][91] is relatively fast and comprehensive, likely due to the development of medical-surgical robots. In contrast, other fields such as prosthodontics [92][93][94][95][96][97] and orthodontics [98][99][100][101][102][103][104][105][106][107][108] have a large number of studies focused on a single type of system.…”

“…Regarding the development stage, 40% of studies are included in the clinical application stage. If those commercial industrial robotic arms are excluded, only a small proportion of robots have been applied in clinical practice [64,[85][86][87][88][89][90][99][100][101][102]107,108,[114][115][116][117][118][119]. This indicates that the number of studies with lower levels of technical development is fewer than those with higher levels of technical development, which is not conducive to long-term progress.…”

“…There are also limitations to robots in dentistry. First, they require expensive infrastructure, including purchase, machine maintenance, and operation costs [85][86][87]. Second, many robots are complex in structure and large in size, making them difficult to master [110,112].…”

“…The first commercial dental robotic system globally received FDA clearance in March 2017 and had been applied in over 1,800 dental implant surgeries by 2020 [85][86][87]. It is a computerized navigational system that provides visual and physical guidance in both the planning (pre-operative) and surgical (intra-operative) phases of dental implant surgery.…”

The term "robot" originates from the Slavic root "robot-", which means labor. The Czech writer Karel Čapek used the term to signify artificial human bodies without souls in his classic 1921 play Rossum's Universal Robots [1]. Along with other important discoveries and inventions, such as X-rays and quantum and relativity theories, the term "robot" became the cornerstone of the rise of modernism in the arts and sciences [2]. However, there is no unified definition of "robotics" in academic fields. People continue to endow it with more profound and broader meanings with the development of applications in various fields. In this review, we define robotics as a field of reprogrammable, multifunctional, multipurpose, and versatile systems intelligently linking sensing to action [3].Generally, robots can be classified based on their level of autonomy into three categories: active, semi-active, and masterslave. They can also be classified based on the type of material into two categories: hard and soft. Active systems work autonomously and undertake pre-programmed tasks, while semi-active systems allow surgeons to provide guidance and assistance to these preprogrammed robotic systems, like telerobots. Master-slave systems lack pre-programming and depend entirely on the operations of surgeons. Examples of such systems are described later in the review [4]. In terms of material, traditional (i.e., hard) robots are made of rigid hard materials, while soft robots designed to imitate the biological system in nature are made of flexible soft materials, which allow for greater flexibility, adaptability, freedom, and stronger deformation ability. Their application in the medical field also makes the interaction between the robotic system and humans more secure[3].While robots have been in the industry for several decades, their application in medicine only began in the 1990s. The first recorded medical application of a robot was in 1985 when it was used to place a needle for a brain biopsy under the guidance of computed tomography [5]. The first successful surgical robot to be applied clinically was developed in the United States [6]. Since robots are advantageous over humans in terms of accuracy, stability, safety, high dexterity, and reduction of doctors' fatigue, they have become widely used in many medical fields currently [7,8], especially in laparoscopic surgery in urology and cardiac surgery [9]. However, the application of robots in dentistry has been introduced much later compared to medicine. The introduction of new J Prosthodont Res. 2023; **(**): ****-****

“…Undoubtedly, both static-guided surgery and dynamic-guided surgery have intrinsic drawbacks. The robot-assisted surgical system was introduced to dental implant surgery [ 26 ]. Notably, a recent in vivo study via animal experiments reported that implant placement by an autonomous dental implant robotic system was more accurate than that by the s-CAIS [ 27 ].…”

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.
