摘要

总部位于波士顿的初创公司Perceptive正在率先使用机器人来完成常见的牙科手术，比如比人类更快、更精确地安装牙冠。这项技术依赖于一种新型的高精度牙科成像系统，该系统类似于超声波，但使用的是光源（称为光学相干断层扫描）来绘制患者牙齿的表面和内部结构。机器人与病人的下颌相连，以反映他们的头部运动，而牙医则继续控制每个程序，以确保安全。据该公司称，原本需要多次就诊花费数小时的手术现在只需一次就诊即可完成，而且就诊时间更短。

Open Wide for This Robot Arm

The Boston-based startup Perceptive is pioneering the use of robots to perform common dental procedures like fitting crowns faster and more precisely than a human can. The technology relies on a new kind of high-precision dental imaging system akin to ultrasound but using light instead (called optical coherence tomography) to map the surface and interior structure of patients' teeth. The robot is physically attached to the patient's jaw to mirror their head movements, while the dentist stays in control of each procedure for safety. According to the company, procedures that would take hours over multiple visits can now be completed in a single, shorter visit.
