Our Patients Come First!

Niagara Dental Implant & Oral Surgery is proud to present robotic assisted surgery using the YOMI dental robot.  This is the first robot of its kind in all of western and upstate NY. At Niagara Dental Implant & Oral Surgery in Williamsville, NY, we pride ourselves on staying up-to-date on the latest technology and advances to provide the most optimal care and results for our patients. The Yomi Dental Robotics is a system that uses robotic technology to assist Dr. Nigalye and team during dental implant procedures, with the aim of improving patient outcomes and reducing the potential for human errors. The Yomi system is designed to work in conjunction with Dr. Nigalye skill and expertise, allowing for more precise and accurate placement of dental implants. Yomi Robitics uses a combination of 3D imaging and haptic technology to help guide Dr. Nigalye hand during the placement of the implant, which can result in a more accurate and comfortable experience for the patient. The Yomi system also has the potential to reduce the amount of time required for the implant placement procedure, which can lead to less discomfort, faster recovery times for patients and a less invasive procedure.

Achieving Restored Smiles with the Latest Technology and Expertise

The YOMI dental robot is designed to assist dentists and oral surgeons in performing procedures with greater precision and accuracy. It uses sensors and imaging technology to create detailed maps of a patient’s mouth and teeth, which can be used to guide the robot’s movements during procedures. This helps reduce the risk of errors and complications, and may also allow for less invasive procedures. 

How Dental Implants Work

Dental implants are unique in that they mimic the structure and function of natural teeth. This is how they can permanently replace missing teeth. Dental implants are surgically placed into the jawbone providing the same bone stimulation and foundation as natural teeth. 

Either as a single tooth replacement or to restore multiple missing teeth, dental implants provide the strength and durability to support new tooth crowns or full arch bridges. Once the dental implant post is fully healed in the jaw and the restoration is fixed securely in place on top, dental implants provide a permanent return to your smile’s health, function, and aesthetics.

Robotics: Enhancing The Results Our Patient’s Receive

Freehand dental implant placement has a high success rate in skilled hands such as Dr. Nigalye and these techniques are still widely used by many competent dentists and specialists. In addition to a dentist, a robot provides several advantages, especially in full arch cases. Without the limitations of cameras or physical guides, Yomi streamlines preoperative dental implant procedural planning, while navigational guidance provides an unprecedented level of instrument precision and control. Dr. Nigalye performs virtual surgery on the computer, which creates a plan that the robot follows during actual guided dental implant surgery. The robot uses a 3D scan of your mouth with exact angles and depths needed to drill into the bone to precisely place dental implants. Yomi robotic haptics guide Dr. Nigalye hand throughout the implant procedure, while also allowing dynamic adjustments based on her clinical expertise. By guiding the precise implant angle and location and securely maintaining this position, Yomi prevents unintended deviation and incorrect placement.
