Oral and Maxillofacial Radiology as defined by the American Dental Association, is the specialty of dentistry and discipline of radiology concerned with production & interpretation of images and data produced by all modalities of radiant energy that are used for the diagnosis and management of diseases, disorders and conditions of the oral and maxillofacial region. AI can be used as a useful modality in diagnosis and treatment of lesions of oral cavity and can be employed in screening and classifying suspicious altered mucosa undergoing premalignant & malignant changes. In head and neck imaging modalities, AI provides advantage owing to its distinctive ability to learn or interpret plain radiographs, ultrasound, CT, MRI, CBCT & radioisotope scans and to determine deviations from normality that could have gone unrecognized with human eye.
