Now with our latest foray into the DTR and T-Scan, I am seeing some of the mistakes I have made in the past, some of the assumptions that were wrong. With this technology, we are helping people that we haven't been able to help before. Dr. Rick Coker, DDS, FACE DTR therapy involves using objective...

Accurate Occlusal Data for More Precise Adjustments and Better Treatment Outcomes T-Scan™ is dentistry's only clinically recognized and research validated digital occlusal analysis system. Historically, the field of occlusion in dentistry has been dominated by subjective analysis and "patient feel"...

Achieve Optimal Occlusal Loading with T-Scan™ Research studies show that 54% of patients experience prosthetic complications1. Although implant dentistry is the best option for most patients improper loading of these implants and crowns can lead to a number of prosthetic and surgical complications...

Quantify Grip Forces with FlexiForce™ Accurate grip measurement has become increasingly important in today’s world of continued ergonomic improvement and robotic grip applications. Historically, there have been limitations with grip measurement. Load cells are expensive and bulky; pressure films...

Tactile Feedback in Surgical Applications In recent years, robots have become an increasingly viable part of minimally invasive surgery. They offer improved range of motion in laparoscopic techniques. The drawback has been that robots have lacked the sense of touch, or haptic feedback, that is so...

FlexiForce™ Sensors Enhance Robotic Surgery Due to advances in biomedical engineering, robotic surgery has become increasingly popular. One significant disadvantage of robotic surgery; however, is the lack of haptic technology and inability to provide force feedback to the surgeon. Because many...

How does the right force sensor improve robot design? Robots in any industry, from consumer devices to manufacturing applications, must be able to sense whether or not a contact has been made, and/or how much force occurs during a given action. Force Sensing is Vital to Proper Balance Humanoid...
