During surgery, scrub nurses are required to frequently deliver surgical instruments to surgeons, which can lead to physical fatigue and decreased focus. Robotic scrub nurses provide a promising solution that can replace repetitive tasks and enhance efficiency. Existing research on robotic scrub nur…
Crown preparation aims to create an optimal foundation for durable and functional restoration by reshaping the tooth with a cutting tool. Robotic crown preparation has emerged as a promising approach to overcome the inherent limitations of manual procedures, yet challenges remain in achieving effici…
Oral and maxillofacial surgery (OMS) imposes an increasing workload on even the most experienced surgeons due to long operation time, high skill requirements, limited observation field, constrained workspace, and fast-growing patient population. Robot-assisted OMS is particularly challenging, requir…
Osteotomy holds a pivotal position among the fundamental procedures in craniomaxillofacial (CMF) surgery. However, there are inherent challenges and risks associated with ensuring the recuperation of occlusion, safeguarding the facial nerves and blood vessels, as well as preserving facial aesthetics…
Surgical incision is a pervasive procedure in medical environments. Stapling is an incision closure method that is comparable to stitching. While incision closure is performed immediately after a surgery, staples are removed several weeks after the closure. The workload of surgeons and the probabili
