Robotics in pediatric dentistry represents a transformative leap in delivering safe, precise, and child-friendly oral care. The integration of advanced robotic systems enhances diagnosis, treatment planning, and execution while reducing human error. In pediatric settings, robotics aids in minimally invasive procedures, chairside assistance, behavioral management, and simulation-based training for dental professionals. Robotic-assisted surgeries provide superior precision and reduced treatment time, while AI-driven robots improve patient engagement through interactive communication, easing dental anxiety in children. Additionally, robotic technologies support preventive dentistry through early caries detection and accurate restorative procedures. For dental education, simulation robots help students practice clinical skills in realistic scenarios. Although challenges such as cost, training, and ethical concerns remain, robotics holds immense potential to reshape pediatric dental practice by combining precision technology with compassionate care, ultimately fostering healthier smiles for children.
