Artificial Intelligence Performance in Oral Hygiene-Preventive Dentistry Questions

Abstract

This study aimed to evaluate success of answering common questions asked by patients about oral hygiene-preventive dentistry practices by artificial intelligence (AI) supported chat robots. In this study, questions commonly asked by patients about oral hygiene-preventive dentistry practices were asked to ChatGPT3.5, ChatGPT4, BING, AI chat robots. The questions in study were selected based on most repeated questions in web-based searches. Access to all chat robots was provided on February 11, 2024, with new accounts created for the purposes of this study. In order to minimize the impact of previous answers, a new chat window was opened for each question asked and the questions were asked once in Turkish for each application. The answers given by the applications were scored according to Likert Scale scale from 1 (most adequate) to 5 (most inadequate) by 2 periodontologists, 2 pedodontics and 2 specialists in restorative dentistry. Since parametric test assumptions were fulfilled, analysis of variance and Bonferroni test were performed. p<.05 was accepted as the significance level. The specialist dentists in all branches who evaluated the responses of chatbots in study observed the most adequate response in ChatGPT3.5 and ChatGPT4. When the scores given by specialist dentists to AI robots were evaluated, no statistical difference was found between the branches. This study showed that, according to the specialist dentists who evaluated the answers, ChatGPT4 and ChatGPT3.5 are more reliable applications that can help patients answer questions about oral hygiene-preventive dentistry practices than BING.
