Program overview
The conference offers a rich program, covering diverse topics within paediatric dentistry. Here’s a glance at some of the speakers and their topics from our program.
An introduction to AI for Clinicians: understanding the strengths and weaknesses
- Professor Andy Keeling
Digital dentistry has enjoyed exponential growth this century. Recent advances in machine learning have only added to the pace of development. This series of talks will start with an overview of how machine learning works. The goal is to equip the clinician with sufficient understanding of these nascent computing techniques, to be able to critically appraise the new applications in Dentistry, with which they will doubtless be bombarded. Next we will explore the current uses of AI in clinical dentistry, and where they are helping (and also accidentally hindering) our restorative treatments. Finally, the ethical considerations for the future will be presented and discussed, noting that when considering AI, the future tends to arrive with alarming rapidity!
