Miami-based Neocis develops robot-assisted dental surgery
Robot-Assisted Dentistry
Miami-based Neocis is using $72 million in new funding to market and develop additional applications for its robotic dental surgery assistant, Yomi. Neocis bills Yomi as the first and only FDA-approved robotic device for dental implant surgery.
The device’s technology enables a surgeon to digitally map out an implant procedure based on 3-D imaging of the patient. The robot arm then guides the surgeon through the procedure by physically resisting any motion outside the bounds of the plan.
“Essentially, the doctor is only allowed to drill according to the plan they made, and if they change their mind in surgery, they can go into the software” and update the plan, says Neocis CEO and co-founder Alon Mozes, previously a principal engineer at Mako Surgical, where he helped develop a robotic system for orthopedic surgeons.
