NASHVILLE, Tenn., US: Oral disease disproportionately affects low-income and minority populations. The use of artificial intelligence (AI) is increasing in oral healthcare and shows great promise in revolutionising dentistry. However, there is little research on its potential application to addressing equity in oral healthcare and research. A new review article by US researchers explores the inequities and biases in oral healthcare and highlights the potential of AI in addressing these challenges, specifically by augmenting oral health practitioners’ capabilities to achieve personalised care that is unbiased and transparent.
