Abstract: With the growing need for proper documentation and maintenance of patient information, an advanced form of computation of this data is a necessary. Artificial Intelligence has become a necessity and growing demand due to need for advanced data processing, diagnosis and need in dental education. Artificial intelligence has found a number of applications in the field of medicine and dentistry. The introduction of robotics to the field of surgery has increased the precision and made surgical procedure more successful. Virtual assistants that apply Artificial Intelligence software are helping dentists to diagnose cases accurately and treat patients efficiently without missing any relevant genetic information. Nevertheless, this is a growing field and its future aspects seem extremely promising.
