Abstract

Artificial intelligence (AI) is revolutionizing prosthodontics, transforming various aspects from treatment planning to implant procedures and maxillofacial prosthetics. This article is a review that emphasizes the current applications of AI in prosthodontics, highlighting its benefits in efficiency, accuracy, and patient satisfaction. Artificial intelligence has the potential to significantly improve the quality and efficiency of prosthodontic care, paving the way for a future of personalized and predictable dentistry. Applications of AI from treatment planning and digital impression acquisition to implant procedures and maxillofacial prosthetics fabrication. As AI improves efficiency, accuracy, and patient satisfaction it enhances productivity and reduces the time involved in fabricating the prosthesis through different software. There are many challenges associated with widespread AI adoption, such as cost and training requirements. The article concludes by stressing the need to embrace AI's potential and facilitate its seamless integration into prosthodontic practice, paving the way for a future of predictable, safe, and efficient dentistry.
