Computer navigation
Navigation systems for implantology -
RoboDent®
RoboDent® is a navigation system
for oral surgeons and implantologists which speeds up the treatment and
mitigates its impact on the patient.
RoboDent® assists in the planning
and execution of a surgical procedure and ensures that the angles and
positions are as accurate as planned and of the requisite quality.
Implants are a particularly valuable and long-lasting form of dental
replacement. Implants must be inserted in such a way that they are
optimally positioned in sound jawbone and aligned at the centre of the
future dentures. The positions and angles have to be exactly right,
which is a very hard task to perform manually.
If several implants are to be inserted, they must be axially parallel.
Without the help of RoboDent® an
implantologist will need years of experience and intense concentration
to be able to ensure ultra-precise positioning and conformal aligning of
the implants. Using RoboDent®, the
implantologist can see on a screen whether he is holding the drill in
the right place for the implant. With the help of
RoboDent® he can insert all the
implants in the best position, as set out in the plan.
The advantages of this system
The implantologist can insert the implants exactly where he thinks they
should be from a surgical and prosthetic point of view, thus ensuring
maximum stability and aesthetic effect.
The patient experiences less post-operative pain and swelling, because
there is often no need for any surgical exposure and subsequent suturing
of the oral mucosa. The time required to insert an implant and for the
patient to recover is shorter than in conventional surgery and there is
much greater precision.
