Description
Smart glasses promise dentists a hands-free window of information while both hands work in a patient's mouth. Ahmed and Azhari survey what the technology, now reaching consumers through devices like the Ray-Ban Meta glasses, could do for dentistry.
The review maps uses across practice and teaching: augmented reality overlays for precision work, live guidance and recording for training, and easier access for patients and students alike. Current studies suggest gains in accuracy, education, and accessibility. Against those stand hard questions about patient data privacy and the ethics of recording in the clinic. The authors conclude that the devices could reshape dental education and daily practice, provided the privacy and consent problems are solved rather than waved past.
