Abstract
Background: The integration of artificial intelligence (AI) in paedi-atric dentistry has grown signifi-cantly, offering new possibilities for diagnostics, treatment plan-ning, and patient care. AI’s capaci-ty to handle large datasets and generate accurate predictions is transforming dental practice.Objective: This narrative review explores the potential applica-tions of AI in paediatric dentistry, focusing on its benefits, challeng-es, and future implications.Methods: A comprehensive litera-ture review was conducted using databases such as PubMed, Sco-pus, and Web of Science. Relevant studies published between 2000 and 2023 were selected based on predefined inclusion criteria. The quality of the studies was ap-praised using the Joanna Briggs Institute tools.Results: AI applications, including image analysis, diagnosis, treat-ment planning, and patient man-agement, show significant prom-ise in paediatric dentistry. AI-powered tools can improve diag-nostic accuracy, reduce treat-ment inconsistencies, and en-hance patient outcomes. Howev-er, challenges related to costs, complexity, and ethical concerns remain.Conclusion: AI will not replace paediatric dentists but will serve as a valuable tool to support clini-cal decision-making. Future re-search should focus on overcom-ing current limitations and ensur-ing safe integration into clinical practice.
