“The Impact of Artificial Intelligence in Dentistry: Transforming Clinical and Laboratory Research”
Year: 2024
Type: article
Abstract: Artificial Intelligence (AI) is revolutionizing healthcare, with dentistry as no exception. The integration of AI technologies into both clinical and laboratory aspects of dental research has the potential to drastically improve diagnostics, treatment planning, and patient outcomes. This article provides an in-depth exploration of AI's applications in dentistry, focusing on the latest advancements that are shaping clinical and laboratory research. From AI-driven diagnostic tools, such as machine learning algorithms for detecting oral pathologies, to virtual assistants in prosthodontic and orthodontic treatments, AI has become a game-changer. Furthermore, AI's application in laboratory research, such as materials development and biomimetic modeling, is evolving rapidly, offering the potential for personalized treatment options. Despite the numerous benefits, there are ethical, regulatory, and technical challenges that must be addressed to ensure AI's responsible and effective use in the dental field. This paper aims to discuss these developments and present the latest scientific contributions to the understanding and application of AI in dentistry, providing a critical analysis of its transformative potential in both clinical practice and research laboratories.
