Abstract

PURPOSE: Dental implant surgery is an effective method for remediating the loss of teeth. Robot is expected to increase the accuracy of dental implant surgery. However, most of them are industrial serial robot, with low stiffness and non-unique inverse kinematic solution, which may reduce the success rate and safety of robotic surgery. Compared to serial robot, parallel robot is more stiffness and has unique inverse kinematic. However, its workspace is small, which may not meet surgical requirements. Therefore, a novel hybrid robot dedicated to dental implant is proposed.
