Area of Science:

  • Dental Implantology
  • Robotic Surgery
  • Surgical Education

Background:

  • Dynamic computer-assisted implant surgery (D-CAIS) has a known learning curve for novice surgeons.
  • Robotic computer-assisted implant surgery (R-CAIS) is a promising new technique for dental implants.
  • The learning curve for R-CAIS in dental implantology is currently unknown.

Purpose of the Study:

  • To investigate the learning curve of robotic computer-assisted implant surgery (R-CAIS).
  • To evaluate R-CAIS for dental implant placement among young dentists with diverse specialties.
  • To assess the impact of R-CAIS on surgical training and proficiency.

Main Methods:

  • Four novice dentists performed eight implant placements each using a semi-active task-autonomous robotic system.
  • Implant placement accuracy was assessed by measuring deviations from planned sites using CBCT scans.
  • Surgical operation time was recorded to analyze learning curve progression.

Main Results:

  • Surgical time significantly decreased after the first attempt, indicating a rapid learning curve.
  • No significant differences in 3D angular, coronal, or apical deviations were found across attempts.
  • Implant placement accuracy was not affected by jaw position or implant tilt angle.

Conclusions:

  • Dentists quickly acquired proficiency in the R-CAIS workflow for implant placement.
  • R-CAIS demonstrated high precision and comparable operating speed to conventional methods.
  • The accuracy of R-CAIS for both straight and tilted implants in the maxilla and mandible was satisfactory.
