Abstract

Dental and facial esthetics is an essential part of modern stomatology. With the development of science and technology and the advancement of interdisciplinary studies, the research of robot technology in the field of dental and facial esthetics is becoming more extensive, and its clinical applications are gradually increasing. This article provides insights into the research and application of robot technology in dental hard tissue esthetics, periodontal soft tissue esthetics, dentition space esthetics, and maxillofacial esthetics. It also highlights the current limitations and development trends and provides references for future research and application of robots in oral esthetics.
