Robotics in Dentistry: The Next Generation Technology

November 3, 2022 by Mark Allinson Leave a Comment

Robots are now utilized in every field of research thanks to technological breakthroughs; they have even found their way into dentistry due to the capacity for precision work without being fatigued. Hamilton dentist Dr. Moninder Tuli, chatted with us and provided us with information about the usage of robotics in dentistry.

The use of robots in dentistry is quite astounding. It can be debated that one of the most astonishing creations of modern civilization is the robot, a tool that can imitate living things. Robots shorten the time it takes to perform a task, increase production, and decrease human error.

Robotics is a revolutionary technology that will alter dental medicine’s diagnostic and therapeutic procedures. Robots can do repetitive tasks for an endless amount of time while improving the overall level and scope of medical care.

The most recent medical robots can conduct clinical intervention or remote patient monitoring independently since robotic systems have evolved dramatically over the previous ten years. [Read more…] about Robotics in Dentistry: The Next Generation Technology

Medical Microinstruments introduces even smaller robotic instruments for complex ‘supermicrosurgery’

October 9, 2022 by Mark Allinson Leave a Comment

Medical Microinstruments, a robotics company developing devices for microsurgery, has launched its new Supermicro NanoWrist instruments for use with the Symani Surgical System, developed specifically to address the challenges of microsurgery.

The new supermicro needle holder and dilator were recently used in clinical procedures in Zürich, Florence, and Salzburg, with successful patient outcomes.

Simon Enzinger, MD, DDS, surgeon at the Department of Oral and Maxillofacial Surgery at the University Hospital Salzburg, used the new instruments on a procedure called a partial glossectomy, where he raised a lateral arm free flap to replace a large section of a patient’s tongue which required removal due to cancer.

Virtual Incision’s robotic surgery device to launch into space

August 2, 2022 by David Edwards Leave a Comment

Virtual Incision, a medical device company which claims to be “pioneering the world’s first miniaturized robotic-assisted surgery platform”, says its MIRA Platform will be launched into space to test its skills in a mission aboard the International Space Station.

The opportunity is driven by a recently awarded grant from the National Aeronautics and Space Administration, and is a technology demonstration scheduled for 2024.

John Murphy, CEO of Virtual Incision, says: “The Virtual Incision MIRA platform was designed to deliver the power of a mainframe robotic-assisted surgery device in a miniaturized size, with the goal of making RAS accessible in any operating room on the planet.

Using Robotics in Plastic Surgery

March 17, 2022 by David Edwards Leave a Comment

Often when we think of robotics, plastic surgery is not the first thing that comes to mind. In fact, if surgery even enters the picture, plastic surgery isn’t likely to be at the top of the list. However, robotics has changed how plastic surgery is performed.

We needed to understand better about how robotics is used in plastic surgery, so we consulted with a few plastic surgeons, such as plastic surgeon Dr. Asif Pirani. This is what we found out. [Read more…] about Using Robotics in Plastic Surgery

Innovations in Dentistry: Navigational Surgery, Robotics, and Nanotechnology

March 14, 2022 by David Edwards Leave a Comment

We are going to start this article with imaginary scenery. So, please indulge us.

Reggie falls and loses two of his teeth. He soon finds it difficult to chew correctly and realizes he might visit the dentist for implants. Coincidentally, his grandmother had to get implants years ago. He remembers how they had to take multiple visits to the dentist and how long it took to fix her smile. Ultimately, Reggie gets discouraged and postpones his visit to the dentist.

This story typically depicts one of the drawbacks of traditional dental procedures, which has been corrected by technological advancements in dentistry over the years. Most dental experts today, like the dentist Steven Shapiro, DMD attests to the benefits of advanced technology such as nanotechnology and robotics in dental surgeries and procedures.
