ROBODENT: Surgery guided by computer with a navigation system robotized
Clínica Sicilia, one of the first centers of Europe and the first in Spain to conduct computer-guided surgery with a robot navigation system (Robodent®)
The Robodent system, developed by the German company Robodent GmbH, based in Munich, is a navigation system that provides dental implants without incisions in real time. It is a high-precision technology, developed in the world of neurosurgery, which now applies to the field of dental implants. The wonderful thing about this system is planning to combine technology with a navigation system.
How does it work?
In a first phase, the medical team of Clínica Sicilia conducts a thorough clinical diagnosis, after which it develops splint positioning for the study of CT scanner with digital i-Cat.
The unit digital radiology of Clínica Sicilia processed instantly study of CT with the software Robodent ®. This software analyzes information from the scanner made to the patient and displays all the structures of the jaw in great detail, generating a three-dimensional cranial reconstruction, where later in consultation, the periodontist and dentist restorer perform planning surgery for a dental implants virtual form, which achieves a high diagnostic accuracy.
The next phase is developed in the unit of Computer Guided Surgery Clinic Sicily, which will be the placement of dental implants. A system of infrared emitters and antennas high precision allow the surgeon to know their exact position at all times during surgery, and make the preparation of the bed is going to receive the implant in one way atraumática, without making incisions needing points sutures or later. Thanks to all of this healing, postoperative and aesthetic results are much better.
What are the benefits?
Improved accuracy, better postoperative better cosmetic results and above all the great advantage of navigation is that it guides the surgeon, but he is not required to place the implant site in a pre if once in the operation is that it is not the ideal . The surgeon can reformulating the position of the implant on the march, according to local circumstances of the case, and further surgery guided by the Robodent with a new planning.
