Artificial Intelligence (AI) in Endodontics: A Review

Medum Shabharish S Kumar et al. J Pharm Bioallied Sci. 2025 May.

Abstract

Artificial intelligence (AI) holds the promise of mimicking human intelligence to enhance prediction and complex decision-making in healthcare, carving out a significant role in dentistry tasks, notably endodontics. It has shown remarkable accuracy in detecting and predicting diseases within this field, potentially refining diagnostics and treatments to boost endodontic success rates. However, there's a need to validate the reliability, practicality, and cost-effectiveness of AI before fully integrating it into everyday clinical settings. This review aims to explore AI's current applications in endodontics and possible future developments.

Keywords: AI; endodontics; future of AI in endodontics.
