🎯 The Aim:

AI is becoming an increasingly familiar part of everyday dental practice, supporting teams with diagnostics, workflow efficiency, and improved patient care. As these technologies develop, it’s important for the whole dental team to understand their potential, limitations and practical impact.

This event introduces the emerging role of AI in dentistry and how it can enhance the way we work together and deliver care.

📌 Learning objectives

• Describe the key opportunities and current limitations of AI in everyday dental practice by understanding AI‑supported practice management systems, the principles of trustworthy clinician‑in‑the‑loop AI, and opportunities to contribute to future research, validation and implementation through academic and industry collaboration

• Develop skills to critically evaluate and integrate AI into daily practice by understanding emerging medical AI innovations, and assessing the strengths, limitations and potential biases of current tools to improve patient dental care

• Understand how AI is used in dental record keeping to support clinical workflow, including its benefits, limitations, ethical considerations, and impact on patient communication and professional accountability

• Understand the current political, regulatory and strategic landscape shaping dentistry.
