Alon Mozes, founder and chief executive officer of Neocis, has provided an in-depth perspective on the development of Yomi S, the company’s latest robotic assisted surgical platform. The updated system introduces new hardware, an AI-supported planning interface, and enhanced workflow features designed to address both clinical and operational challenges identified with the original Yomi model.

 

The original Yomi system was notable for integrating visual, audio, and haptic guidance to support precise, minimally invasive dental implant procedures. While effective, its design often required the presence of an additional assistant to input commands and facilitate communication during surgery. This requirement could complicate clinical workflow and add operational complexity, particularly in practices with limited staff. Yomi S seeks to overcome these challenges by embedding greater intelligence and user interface capabilities, enabling single-operator use and streamlining the overall workflow.

Key Highlights

  • Robotic guidance shortens the learning curve for new associates, enabling immediate contribution to implant procedures.
  • Yomi’s intraoperative flexibility allows for same-day planning and surgery, increasing case volume and efficiency.
  • Practices using Yomi experience significant growth in implant volume and full-arch procedures, often exceeding 50% increases.
  • The technology enhances accuracy, reduces complications, and serves as a marketing differentiator to attract more patients.
  • Adopting robotic systems like Yomi can strategically transform a practice’s growth trajectory and competitive positioning.

Watch webinar: Intraoperative Efficiency in Dental Implant Surgery

 

Explore how haptic robotic guidance is transforming dental implant workflows. In this multi-site clinical study of 83 patients (171 implants), researchers compared traditional freehand implant placement with robotic-assisted procedures for both partial- and full-arch cases.

 

Learn how robotics can significantly reduce osteotomy and implantation times, improve workflow efficiency, and maintain high accuracy and precision—all without disrupting the standard surgical process. The study reviews the clinical workflow, timing data, and practical implications for integrating robotic guidance into everyday implant dentistry.

 

The surgical times reported in this study of haptic robotic guidance for both the partial implant and full-arch patient show specific workflow efficiency benefits during osteotomy and implantation. While robotics is disruptive in terms of its advanced technology, it does not significantly disrupt the workflow and efficiency of a standard dental implant practice. Instead, it shows notable efficiency improvements during osteotomy and implantation in all patients, with a particularly significant overall workflow efficiency for full-arch patients. These results may attest to the quick integration of the haptic robotic protocol into the digital practitioner’s clinical workflow and the ease of employing robotic guidance to enhance patient treatment. Additionally, there was no wait for surgical guide fabrication, and no physical guide impeding access or visualization. Robotic haptic guidance securely constrained the handpiece to the virtual restorative plan. Given the accuracy, precision, and intraoperative flexibility of robotic surgical platforms, this data on surgical efficiency supports the growing interest in haptic robotic guidance to augment dental implant surgery.
