Dynamic navigation and haptic robotic systems are transforming the field of periodontology by enhancing the precision of implant placement. This is particularly vital in the maxillofacial region, where a comprehensive understanding of the nerves and vessels is essential to avoid critical structures. This article evaluates the impact of two major robotic systems, X-Guide and Yomi, on implant surgery outcomes, and compares them to the free-hand method. Recent studies reveal that implants placed via freehand techniques have a substantially higher inadequacy rate that is almost 3.5 times higher than robotic surgery placement. The X-Guide dynamic navigation system and Yomi robotics have both proven to enhance accuracy, both achieving mean deviations of no more than 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.
