“…Zhang et al [103] developed an archwire-bending robotic system based on the movement pattern of the MOTOMAN UP6 robot and optimized some parameters later. In 2011, Gilbert [104] introduced a system called Lingual Archwire Manufacturing and Design Aid (LAMDA; Lancer Orthodontics, Inc., 2330 Cousteau Court, Vista, CA) to precisely design and bend archwires rapidly.…”

The term "robot" originates from the Slavic root "robot-", which means labor. The Czech writer Karel Čapek used the term to signify artificial human bodies without souls in his classic 1921 play Rossum's Universal Robots [1]. Along with other important discoveries and inventions, such as X-rays and quantum and relativity theories, the term "robot" became the cornerstone of the rise of modernism in the arts and sciences [2]. However, there is no unified definition of "robotics" in academic fields. People continue to endow it with more profound and broader meanings with the development of applications in various fields. In this review, we define robotics as a field of reprogrammable, multifunctional, multipurpose, and versatile systems intelligently linking sensing to action [3].Generally, robots can be classified based on their level of autonomy into three categories: active, semi-active, and masterslave. They can also be classified based on the type of material into two categories: hard and soft. Active systems work autonomously and undertake pre-programmed tasks, while semi-active systems allow surgeons to provide guidance and assistance to these preprogrammed robotic systems, like telerobots. Master-slave systems lack pre-programming and depend entirely on the operations of surgeons. Examples of such systems are described later in the review [4]. In terms of material, traditional (i.e., hard) robots are made of rigid hard materials, while soft robots designed to imitate the biological system in nature are made of flexible soft materials, which allow for greater flexibility, adaptability, freedom, and stronger deformation ability. Their application in the medical field also makes the interaction between the robotic system and humans more secure[3].While robots have been in the industry for several decades, their application in medicine only began in the 1990s. The first recorded medical application of a robot was in 1985 when it was used to place a needle for a brain biopsy under the guidance of computed tomography [5]. The first successful surgical robot to be applied clinically was developed in the United States [6]. Since robots are advantageous over humans in terms of accuracy, stability, safety, high dexterity, and reduction of doctors' fatigue, they have become widely used in many medical fields currently [7,8], especially in laparoscopic surgery in urology and cardiac surgery [9]. However, the application of robots in dentistry has been introduced much later compared to medicine. The introduction of new J Prosthodont Res. 2023; **(**): ****-****

“…The actuator is connected with the periphery of the MOTOMAN robot. The clamping and bending of the arch-wire are done by the arch-wire bending actuator, which is attached with the MOTOMAN robot end [ 70 , 71 ]. The bending characteristics of the arch-wire, the kinematics of the robot, angle optimization, and bending point’s position of the arch-wire are examined and simulated [ 72 , 73 , 74 , 75 , 76 , 77 ].…”

Robotics is a disruptive technology that will change diagnostics and treatment protocols in dental medicine. Robots can perform repeated workflows for an indefinite length of time while enhancing the overall quality and quantity of patient care. Early robots required a human operator, but robotic systems have advanced significantly over the past decade, and the latest medical robots can perform patient intervention or remote monitoring autonomously. However, little research data on the therapeutic reliability and precision of autonomous robots are available. The present paper reviews the promise and practice of robots in dentistry by evaluating published work on commercial robot systems in dental implantology, oral and maxillofacial surgery, prosthetic and restorative dentistry, endodontics, orthodontics, oral radiology as well as dental education. In conclusion, this review critically addresses the current limitations of dental robotics and anticipates the potential future impact on oral healthcare and the dental profession.
