Abstract

Thirteen publications were included. Number of participants ranged from 3 to 74, comprising dentists with varying experience and expertise and dental students. Results showed that AI enhances sensitivity, though its impact on specificity varies (10 studies). AI can promote unnecessary interventions for early-stage caries lesions (1 study). AI increased assessment time in two out of three cases (3 studies). AI's cost-effectiveness is uncertain, as greater sensitivity did not lead to better economic outcomes (1 study). In conclusion, AI has the potential to improve diagnostics and influence treatment choices, but current evidence is limited and inconsistent regarding its impact on specificity, decision quality, and cost-effectiveness. Longitudinal studies in clinical settings with long-term follow-ups are needed to understand AI's impact on decision-making.
