Abstract:
Artificial intelligence (AI) and augmented intelligence are transforming dental practice management by automating administrative tasks, enhancing diagnostics, and improving treatment planning and patient care. These technologies have the potential to increase efficiency and accuracy while allowing clinicians time to focus on person-centered care. Though AI offers substantial benefits across specialties, challenges like ethical oversight, data privacy, algorithmic bias, and uneven adoption remain. Successful integration requires education, regulatory clarity including informed consent, and interdisciplinary collaboration. A strategic approach is crucial to employ AI's full potential, improve patient outcomes, and shape the future of practice management in dentistry.
