In this dynamic lecture, Dr. Bruno Azevedo will explain Artificial Intelligence's (AI) transformative role in modern endodontics, focusing on its applications in CBCT imaging enhancement and diagnosis. The presentation will explore advanced imaging enhancement techniques, such as task-specific rendering and cinematographic rendering, demonstrating how these AI-powered tools significantly improve image quality adding in the diagnosis of vertical root fractures and the visualization of micro dental anatomy. We will also discuss AI's broader impact on endodontic practices, including its potential to assist clinicians in diagnosing, analyzing patient medical histories, and optimizing clinical note-taking. This lecture will provide a comprehensive overview of AI's integration into endodontic workflows by examining current applications and future possibilities. Attendees will gain valuable insights into how AI reshapes dentistry, from enhancing diagnostic accuracy to streamlining clinical decision-making processes, ultimately improving patient care and treatment outcomes. This forward-looking presentation will equip endodontists with the knowledge to embrace and leverage AI technologies in their practices.

Learning Objectives:

  • Demonstrate how AI enhances CBCT imaging through Task Specific Rendering and Cinematographic rendering for improved diagnosis of vertical root fractures
  • Explain the role of AI in assisting endodontists with diagnosis, specifically in interpreting CBCT scans and recognizing patterns indicative of various endodontic pathologies
  • Evaluate the impact of AI on the future of endodontic practice, education, and research, encouraging critical thinking about its integration into daily clinical workflows
