Exploring the Role of Generative AI and Large Language Models in Shaping the Future of Dentistry

The field of dentistry is poised for a transformative leap forward with the integration of artificial intelligence, particularly through the application of large language models (LLMs) – a set of algorithms that are behind ChatGPT and Gemini. In this talk, we will delve into the latest advancements in LLMs, processing and generating information in various forms such as text, images, videos and even audio. We will explore how these cutting-edge models can be leveraged to revolutionize various aspects of health and dentistry, including:
* Enhanced diagnostics and treatment planning: LLMs can analyze patient data to provide comprehensive insights and support dentists in making informed decisions.
* Personalized patient communication and education: LLMs can generate tailored educational materials and facilitate interactive communication with patients.
* Streamlining teledentistry: LLMs can facilitate remote consultations by analyzing patient-provided data and generating preliminary assessments
* Automated administrative tasks, and many more.
This presentation will not only showcase the current applications of LLMs in dentistry but also explore the exciting possibilities for the future.
