BARRANQUILLA, COLOMBIA: In a groundbreaking achievement for medical technology, the first fully automated dental surgery performed entirely by a robot has been successfully completed. The milestone procedure, carried out by US-based company Perceptive, utilized a robotic arm powered by artificial intelligence (AI) and advanced 3D imaging technology.
The cutting-edge system scanned the patient’s mouth, analyzed the data in real time, and executed the dental work with precision using a series of specialized tools. The innovative approach aims to redefine the efficiency and accuracy of dental procedures.
Dr. Chris Ciriello, CEO and founder of Perceptive, expressed his excitement about the accomplishment. “This landmark achievement in robotic dentistry enhances the precision and efficiency of dental care. By leveraging automation, we aim to democratize access to high-quality dental procedures, improving patient experiences and clinical outcomes,” he said in a statement.
Although regulatory approval for its use in the United States could take several years, Perceptive’s robotic system already demonstrates impressive capabilities. The technology can complete a crown replacement in just 15 minutes, a process that typically takes conventional dentists around two hours.
The success of this fully automated dental surgery highlights the potential of robotics and AI in revolutionizing healthcare. Experts believe that such innovations could pave the way for greater accessibility to advanced treatments while setting new standards in precision and patient care.
