About the Course

Course Description

Artificial intelligence is no longer a future concept in dentistry. It is already helping clinicians and practices improve diagnostic confidence, streamline workflows, and strengthen patient communication. 

This course is designed for practicing clinicians, owner-dentists, and growing multi-location practices who want practical guidance on where AI creates measurable impact without disrupting clinical autonomy or adding complexity. Participants will explore real-world applications in radiographic analysis, periodontal assessment, preventive intervention workflows, documentation support, and claims accuracy, along with how AI can reduce variability between providers, surface missed treatment opportunities, and support clearer, more visual case presentation that builds patient trust.

The session will also cover what is coming next, including ambient documentation, predictive analytics, and real-time quality assurance, and what clinicians and practice leaders can do now to prepare for evolving patient expectations and standards of care.

Learning Objectives

  • Identify current clinical and operational applications of AI in dental practices 
  • Explain how AI supports diagnostic consistency while preserving provider autonomy 
  • Evaluate where AI can reduce administrative burden and improve workflow 
  • Discuss how AI enhances patient communication and trust
  • Anticipate emerging AI capabilities and prepare strategically for the future of care
