[Condition and future of robotics in stomatology].

Abstract

The successful research and application of robotic techniques will promote more dental practitioners to operate robotic simulation systems in various aspects as clinical practice, teaching and scientific research. This paper reviews the history and development of dental robotics in a systematic way. We specifically introduce the application conditions and estimate the future development of dental robotics. Besides, we also foresee the potential impact and change brought by dental robotic techniques.
