Abstract
Dental implant surgery is now a well versed approach for tooth replacement, addressing various limitations of fixed bridges and removable dentures, thereby reinstating both the form and function of missing teeth. However, it is technically sensitive and highly dependent on the clinical experience and the expertise of the dentist. With breakthrough progress in robot-assisted surgery for a variety of systemic diseases, robot-assisted dental implant surgery has emerged as a new way to potentially enhance the efficacy of dental implant procedures. Widely researched by dental researchers, it is progressively revealing advantages in the treatment of dentition defects or edentulism. This article summarizes the current research status of robot-assisted dental implant surgery and provides a perspective grounded in the ongoing research landscape.
