Abstract：AIM:To assess the precision of robot-assisted Endodontic microsurgery in oral surgery,and to val-idate the practicality of intraoral scanning in postoperative accuracy measurement.METHODS:An oral surgical robot was utilized to simulate osteotomy and apicoectomy operations on the porcine mandible.Prior to surgery,CBCT scanning and surgical path planning were conducted,and the accuracy of the three-dimensional deviation of the surgical path was analyzed using two measurement methods after the surgery.RESULTS:Two methods were employed to measure the 3D deviation following Endodontic microsurgery.The CBCT measurement showed an entry point deviation of 0.64±0.04 mm and an end point deviation of 0.72±0.05 mm,with an angular deviation of 1.07±0.14°.On the other hand,the intraoral scan measurement indicated an entry point deviation of 0.65±0.04 mm and an end point deviation of 0.72±0.03 mm,with an an-gular deviation of 1.00±0.11°.There was no significant difference in the entry point deviation,end point deviation,and an-gular deviation between the two measurement methods(P＞0.05).CONCLUSION:The oral surgery robot has demon-strated effective visualization,minimization,and precision in performing Endodontic microsurgery.Intraoral scanning can be utilized to assess the accuracy of robot-assisted Endodontic microsurgery without subjecting the patient to additional ra-diation exposure.
