Title: From data to digital reality: AI powered 3D visualization and simulation for precision dentistry

Abstract

Artificial intelligence (AI) plays a pivotal role in advanced digital dental workflows by enabling accurate diagnosis, planning, simulation, and automated creation of patient-specific dental devices. AI-based cone-beam computed tomography (CBCT) diagnostic systems employ deep learning algorithms for anatomical segmentation and pathology detection, forming the basis for AI-assisted surgical planning and risk assessment. These data-driven insights support precise virtual implant positioning and prosthetically driven treatment planning. AI-enhanced intraoral scanning improves surface reconstruction, noise reduction, and data alignment, generating high-resolution 3D models that facilitate AI-based simulations of occlusal dynamics and prosthetic performance. Facial scanning combined with AI-driven digital smile design enables quantitative evaluation of facial proportions and esthetic parameters, supporting individualized treatment planning. Beyond planning, AI-driven creation technologies significantly impact clinical outcomes through the automated design of crowns, dentures, occlusal splints, and surgical guides. Intelligent CAD/CAM systems optimize morphology, fit, and functional parameters, reducing human variability and improving fabrication accuracy. These advancements contribute to improved prosthetic precision, enhanced treatment predictability, reduced chairside time, and favorable long-term oral health outcomes, positioning AI-powered creation as a key determinant of modern precision dentistry.
