Yomi Robotic Assisted
Dental Implant Surgery
Cutting Edge Technology
Utilizing robotic guidance has become a standard of care for many medical procedures and is widely used to treat over one million patients every year. Yomi-enabled surgery provides robotic guidance for dental implants and is the first and only FDA approved robot in dentistry.
Dr. Robinson is the first and only surgeon in Washington DC, Maryland or Northern Virginia to incorporate the Yomi Robotic Assisted Dental Implant Surgery system in practice.
Yomi assists Dr. Robinson and his team in planning and placing your implants. Yomi provides our team with robotic haptic guidance during surgery. This helps Dr. Robinson plan and execute a more efficient, minimally invasive and accurate dental implant placement.
The Yomi
and the i-cat cone beam CT give Dr. Robinson and his referring doctors important information on the teeth and jaws. This helps them plan surgery that is personalized to you.
Dr. Robinson is always in control of the robot, it merely guides him into the planned position. Throughout the procedure there is real-time physical, visual and audio feedback. This provides a combination of surgical skill and experience with the benefits of robotic surgery.
Benefits of Robotic Dynamic Guidance
Yomi-enabled surgery has significant benefits over free-hand and static guided implant surgery. This would include:
more precise placement of the implant which enables improved restorative outcomes
the ability to adjust the treatment plan during surgery
shorter surgical time which allows for a smoother recovery
minimally invasive surgical approach
same day surgery as opposed to waiting for a guide to be fabricated
Yomi Assisted surgery also has some benefits over other forms of dynamic guidance including:
the ability to decrease human error with its guided haptic technology
the option to view the implant placement from direct vision or on the Yomi monitor
Dr. Robinson firmly believes in the technology and its ability to provide his patients with the most accurate, minimally invasive and efficient implant placement option.
