Dr. Pitts first got the Yomi system in January and has used it on at least 100 patients since. 

The Yomi guided system helps surgeons improve speed, precision and versatility during procedures.

The guided technology allows Dr. Pitts to place four to six implants in just 30 to 40 minutes, something that would take three to four hours without the robot. 

The Yomi robot is manufactured by Neocis and is FDA-cleared.

At the Becker's 5th Annual Future of Dentistry Roundtable, taking place November 12–14 in Chicago, dental leaders and executives will gain insights into emerging technologies, practice growth strategies and the evolving landscape of dental care delivery, with a focus on innovation, patient experience and operational excellence.
