The Yomi Robotic Dental System is the only FDA-cleared robot-assisted dental surgery system in the U.S.

“The day of surgery, I have very little stress because I know where it’s going to be, I know where the implant is going to go, and I know any challenges I have in advance,” Dr. DeAngelo told Spectrum News 1.
