Artificial Intelligence and Robotics in Prosthodontics

In dentistry, AI significantly impacts fields like prosthodontics, which focuses on the design, manufacture, and fitting of artificial prostheses for teeth and other parts of the oral cavity. Traditional diagnostic and treatment modalities, bound by human intelligence and visual-tactile examination, are prone to human error, underscoring the need for AI. AI's ability to process vast amounts of patient data efficiently makes it essential in modern healthcare.AI applications in dentistry range from data processing and information extraction to utilizing neural networks for diagnosis. AI integrates augmented reality (AR) and virtual reality (VR) into dental education and employs robotics to enhance precision and predictability in surgical procedures. AI-driven virtual assistants help dentists diagnose accurately and treat patients efficiently, ensuring critical genetic information is not overlooked. However, while AI raises awareness and prompts timely treatment, it cannot fully replace human expertise but rather complements it.
