The Future of Artificial Intelligence in Dentistry
Jun.
Now, Artificial Intelligence in dentistry has arrived! Deep learning creates its own rules that improve with additional data, making it well suited to interpret the unstructured data required for advanced applications such as self-driving cars, predicting earthquakes, disease detection, and diagnosis and treatment recommendations in medicine. At this point, analyzing cone beam data requires a specific level of training and expertise. In the very future, we foresee deep learning analysis tools for images, assisting in diagnosing, and treatment planning of periodontal disease by enabling early detection of bone loss and changes in bone density. Applying deep learning image analysis to oral cancer will lead to earlier detection and more accurate diagnoses with lifesaving implications.
