Abstract

The transformative impact of Artificial Intelligence on dentistry, focusing on its applications in diagnostic accuracy, personalized treatment planning and clinical efficiency is of interest. The technical aspects of Artificial Intelligence models like convolutional neural networks and artificial neural networks with the ethical principles guiding its integration and the privacy and security challenges involved are discussed. Regulatory frameworks in the United States and Canada are reviewed, highlighting gaps and opportunities for safe Artificial Intelligence adoption. Good Machine Learning Practices and future research directions to mitigate risks are important. Thus, the importance of ethical and legal considerations for responsible Artificial Intelligence integration in dental practice is highlighted.
