Role of Artificial Intelligence in Prosthodontics to Assess its Effectiveness and Success: A Systematic Review


, , , ,
Abstract

Prosthodontics, a discipline including both art and science, is dedicated to the comprehensive management of patients with dental conditions due to the absence or inadequacy of teeth, as well as oral and maxillofacial tissues. Its core objectives are diagnosis, strategic planning, rehabilitation, and maintenance of patients' functional, comfortable, and healthy oral states. The major approach used for the treatment of this condition is prosthesis replacement. Prosthodontics primarily focuses on the management and fabrication of fixed and removable dental prostheses, alongside implant surgery, the development of maxillofacial prostheses, and the enhancement of finishing margins adjacent to the tooth to optimize the extension and fit of the prosthesis. Additionally, it is used to preserve the maxillomandibular connection and determine the suitable tooth shade for aesthetic purposes.

AI is increasingly being used in the field of prosthodontics, leading to advancements in the rehabilitation of persons requiring prosthodontic therapy. AI offers significant advantages in the fields of removable, fixed, maxillofacial, and implant prosthodontics. The use of AI enhances the efficacy and acceptance of prosthodontic treatment, while concurrently reducing the probability of human errors. Furthermore, it has been shown that the field of prosthodontic implant applications derives the most benefit from AI. Researchers have also been found to use AI in the development of dental and overall healthcare solutions.
