Abstract
Artificial Intelligence (AI) has the ability to process huge datasets, disclose human essence computationally, and perform like humans as technology advances. Because of the necessity for precise diagnosis and improved patient care, AI technology has greatly influenced the healthcare industry. In the domains of dentistry and medicine, artificial intelligence has yet to come a long way. As a result, dentists must be aware of the potential implications for a profitable clinical practise in the future. In this paper, we present the current applications of AI in dentistry. The different types of AI techniques are introduced and summarized. The state-of-the-art literature is studied analysed. A comparative analysis on the different AI techniques in dentistry is presented. Further, the research challenges in the field of dentistry and future directions are also provided.
