The Yomi Robotic System is one of those tools created to assist in oral surgery, specifically for dental implants. It offers augmented visualization of treatment areas, procedure planning & haptic-guided surgery. These features allow the dentist to perform complex & intricate work in less time & with greater accuracy.
The Yomi line is developed by Neocis & was designed solely for use in the dental world. That means a more natural-looking smile & less time in the chair for patients. Robotic assistant visual aids can also help patients better understand the type of care they are receiving & what to expect during the procedure itself.
These devices can also help with more complicated procedures and full arch denture implants. Using multisensory equipment, your dentist can control your treatment & develop a better plan for your smile. With robotic assistance, you can be confident your dentist has you on the leading edge of care.
The Yomi system has been approved by the U.S. Food & Drug Administration for use in oral surgery.
Your dentist will go over what treatment they think is best to keep your oral health in top shape & explain how robotic assistance might help you.
