Artificial Intelligence In Dentistry

In the recent times, various technologies are developing consistently and support the principles that attempt to mimic the human brain functioning to develop solutions. Among many industrial revolutions, the fourth industrial revolution opened a new digital era in which one of the most important contributions is the ARTIFICIAL INTELLIGENCE. It is a crucial invention that imitates human cognitive capabilities. It has captured the attention of scientists all around the world. On a broader level, it enables the creation of intelligent machines that can achieve tasks without human intervention. It is among the most promising ones, with high accuracy and efficiency. Dental practitioners can identify this as a supplemental tool to reduce their workload and improve precision and accuracy in diagnosis, decision-making, treatment planning, prediction of treatment outcomes, and disease prognosis. Further studies, including randomized clinical trials, are needed to confirm the value of this concept in dental practice to provide data-driven, high-performance dental care that can rapidly improve the science, economics, and delivery of optimum treatment to patients.
