2022: Announcement
On November 15, 2022, Neocis announced the release of a robotic surgical system for dental operations. A robot called Yomi helps doctors during the planning and surgery stages when dental implants are installed. For example, the robot offers interactive digital planning software and physical guides for surgical instruments.
Yomi allows dentists to perform robot-controlled alveoloplasty of the lower and/or upper jaw. This is commonly referred to as bone reduction, the press release said. With the help of computed tomography of the patient in digital format, bone reduction and implant installation are planned. During the procedure, the Yomi guide arm provides tactile feedback. This prevents the boron from deviating beyond the pre-planned resection boundaries. Robotic bone reduction allows doctors to freely visualize, spray and palpate the site of surgery, the developers said. In addition, they can modify the treatment plan intraoperatively without compromising accuracy.
{{quote 'This not only allows implant doctors to perform full-height recovery with a completely new level of accuracy and confidence, but also opens up new opportunities for robotic dental surgery! This resolution is one of the most significant for us, since dentists can now use Yomi to perform really voluminous 3D surgery, "said Neocis co-founder and CEO Alon Moses. }} By November 2022, a total of Neocis had raised more than $160 million since its inception in 2009. The company plans to use the funds to accelerate research work. Management also intends to strengthen its marketing and educational initiatives with these funds. In addition, Neocis plans to expand its presence in sales, clinical support and business optimization.[1]
