Abstract

Aim: Evidence-based approach is reiterated in periodontology for strategic need of intervention. The changing face of the profession by AI integration is welcome. Background: Periodontitis is not only the sixth most prevalent disease worldwide, but untreated severe periodontitis is categorized as 77th among the 100 most relevant dysfunction-resulting human conditions. Search strategy: Extensive search was performed on six databases: Google Scholar, Web of Science, ProQuest, MEDLINE PubMed, SciVerse Scopus, and Embase. Additionally, 5 computer science sources (ArXiv, IEEE Xplore, Comput Methods Programs Biomed, Appl Soft Comput, and Eng Fract Mech) and 705 in total were searched. Covidence for data extraction and Dedoose for identifying ethics-related information was employed following Preferred Reporting Items for Systematic Reviews and Meta-Analyses (PRISMA) guidelines. Review results: In the end, 43 studies were retained in the review. Efforts should be to report non-heterogeneous outcomes in the future to draw meaningful comparisons. Discussion: Indeed, automation reduces physical and mental burnout but there are potential pitfalls that periodontists need to be aware of. Standardization is the key to generating the trust of both users and recipients. Clinical significance: Despite the revolutionizing power, AI solutions have yet to overcome the moral hurdles to enter routine periodontal care. Note worthily, the seven-pronged approaches for the ethical praxis are proposed henceforth.
