Sumario:The current advances in digitized data additions, machine learning and computing framework, lead to the swiftly emerging concept of “Artificial Intelligence” (AI), that are developing into areas that were formerly contemplated for human expertise. AI is a relatively rapid paced mechanics wherein the computer technology is tuned to perform human tasks. An auxiliary domain of AI is machine learning (ML), and Deep learning, a subclass of ML technique comprehends multi-layer mathematical operations. AI-based applications have tremendous potential to improve and systematize patient care thereby alleviating dentists from laborious regular tasks, and facilitate personalized, predictive and preventive dentistry. In the dental clinic, AI can execute a variety of easy tasks with greater accuracy, minimal manpower, and with fewer mistakes over human equivalents. These tasks range from appointment scheduling and coordination to helping with clinical evaluation and therapy. Besides, this could assist in the early diagnosis of dental and maxillofacial abnormalities like periodontal ailments, root caries, bony lesions, and facial malformations in addition to automatically identifying and classifying dental restorations on digital radiographs. This brusque narrative review describes the AI-based systems, their respective applications in periodontal diagnosis, the multifarious studies, possible limitations and the predictable future of AI-based dental diagnostics and treatment planning.
