An autonomous robot has successfully completed its first full dental procedure on a human patient, achieving this feat approximately eight times faster than traditional methods. Utilizing advanced technology, the robot employs a 3D volumetric scanner with optical coherence tomography (OCT) to create high-resolution models of the mouth, eliminating the need for harmful X-rays. This innovation allows the robot to perform complex tasks, such as preparing a tooth for a crown, in just 15 minutes.
The implications of this robotic technology are profound, as it not only enhances efficiency but also improves patient comfort during dental procedures. The CEO of Perceptive, the company behind this advancement, emphasizes the potential for better clinical outcomes and patient experiences. As the field of robotic dentistry evolves, the future may hold even more sophisticated solutions for various dental challenges.
• AI robot completes dental procedures significantly faster than human dentists.
• Advanced imaging technology enhances diagnosis and patient comfort in dentistry.
In this context, OCT is used by the robot to create detailed models of the mouth, improving diagnostic accuracy.
The robot utilizes this technology to generate precise models of the patient's dental structure.
Perceptive is at the forefront of robotic dentistry, having developed a system that significantly enhances the speed and precision of dental procedures.
