CE Hours
In this course, attendees will explore how AI is transforming diagnostic consistency, patient engagement, and early intervention in private practices and group settings. Drawing from anonymized data on over 500 million dental radiographs, the instructor will illustrate how AI is improving diagnostic accuracy, reducing variability across providers, and driving better clinical outcomes. This course will walk through real-world case examples and implementation frameworks suitable for practices of all sizes. Attendees will also learn how to integrate AI into existing workflows without disruption—and how to build trust with patients using AI-supported visuals. This is not a futuristic pitch; it’s a practical discussion grounded in evidence and ethical adoption. The course will include Q&A and peer insights on navigating common adoption challenges.
