About
Nan Ren is a pioneering researcher at the intersection of robotics and oral implantology, whose work is redefining precision in dental surgery. Her primary research focuses on the development and validation of autonomous robotic systems for dental implant placement, with a particular emphasis on accuracy, thermal dynamics during osteotomy, and real-time surgical feedback. Ren’s landmark 2021 study, cited 37 times, provided the first rigorous animal-model evidence for the Autonomous Dental Implant Robotic System, demonstrating its superior accuracy and laying the critical groundwork for subsequent human clinical trials. Building on this, her 2023 in vitro investigation (16 citations) broke new ground by correlating intraosseous temperature changes with drilling impulse data, enabling the creation of real-time temperature prediction models that could prevent thermal bone necrosis during robotic osteotomy. This work is not only technically innovative but clinically vital, as it addresses a key safety concern in automated implant surgery. Ren’s contributions are shaping the future of computer-aided, minimally invasive dentistry, positioning her as a leading voice in the emerging field of surgical robotics for oral healthcare.
