The extraordinary value of repeatable accuracy with Yomi
Jay Neugarten, DDS, MD, FACS
Originally aired: November 2024
Dr. Jay Neugarten, a Yomi KOL and one of New York's leading oral surgeons, discussed the results of his pivotal independent study comparing the accuracy of robot-assisted implant placement to static-guided, dynamic computer-guided, and freehand surgery.
Accuracy and Precision of Haptic Robotic-Guided Implant Surgery in a Large Consecutive Series was published in the International Journal of Oral & Maxillofacial Implants earlier this year. Dr. Neugarten's research, which looked at 273 implants placed with Yomi over a two-year period, shows that robotic guidance enables higher accuracy and statistically greater precision than any other implant surgery modality in use today.

Key takeaways
Dr. Neugarten shared his experience as a robotic implant clinician and the data from his landmark clinical paper.
- The findings of his two-year study on robot-assisted implant surgery
- How the accuracy of robotic guidance compares to static guides, dynamic computer navigation, and freehand surgery
- The clinical and operational benefits of this innovative treatment approach
- How the Yomi platform has elevated his full-arch workflow
“Accuracy is so critical in implant dentistry. In addition to poor aesthetic outcomes, inaccurate implant placement can also lead to intraoperative complications, patient discomfort, and reduced implant longevity. That is why any technology that can deliver this level of exactness should be strongly considered by clinicians.”
