Description
Tahereh Firoozi, Rojin Adabdokht, and Hollis Lai review search-fed AI in dentistry in this 2025 mini-review (the catalog lists 2026). Retrieval augmented generation pairs a language model with outside sources, fixing stale knowledge and made-up answers. Dental uses are just emerging.
Early dental systems show better factual accuracy and clearer reasoning, the authors report. Yet methods vary wildly and dental text collections are thin. Progress needs shared test standards, curated knowledge bases, and image-rich resources. The review maps the foundations and parts of the approach. It closes with paths toward trustworthy AI for dental research and care.
