Dynamic navigation and haptic robotic systems are revolutionizing dentistry by significantly improving implant placement precision, especially in the maxillofacial region where safeguarding nerves, vessels, and vital structures is crucial. This article examines the impact of X-Guide dynamic navigation and Yomi robotics on implant surgery outcomes, comparing these technologies to traditional freehand methods. The X-Guide dynamic navigation system and Yomi robotics have both been proven to enhance accuracy, with both achieving mean deviations of around 1 mm from pre-planned positions. However, the high costs associated with these technologies may limit access for many practitioners. Despite these challenges, both systems facilitate the completion of complex cases with minimal deviations. In addition, their applications are expanding beyond implantology into areas like endodontics, further demonstrating their potential in modern dental practices.
