Artificial intelligence in dentistry

Abstract

Artificial intelligence (AI) has emerged as a transformative technology in various domains, and dentistry is no exception. This paper explores the applications and implications of AI in dentistry, highlighting its potential to revolutionize dental practices, enhance patient care, and improve treatment outcomes. The population of interest for this study comprises dental practitioners, researchers, and patients involved in dental care. Dentists are increasingly recognizing the value of AI in streamlining various tasks, such as diagnosis, treatment planning, and patient management. AI algorithms can analyze radiographic images, intraoral scans, and clinical data to assist in detecting and classifying dental diseases, including caries, periodontal conditions, and oral cancers. By leveraging machine learning techniques, AI systems can provide accurate and timely diagnoses, aiding dentists in making informed decisions and improving treatment efficacy. Sampling for this study involves selecting a representative sample of dental professionals from diverse geographical regions, ranging from general dentists to specialists, to comprehensively understand their perspectives and experiences with AI in dentistry. Patients receiving dental care were also included in the sample to gauge their perceptions of AI technologies and their impact on the quality of care received. The sampling technique employed was a combination of convenience sampling and purposive sampling.
