[Application and future of artificial intelligence in oral esthetics].

Artificial intelligence (AI) has significantly enhanced the precision and efficiency of dental restoration design, smile analysis, and personalized treatment in the field of esthetic dentistry through technologies such as deep learning. This advancement provides patients with more accurate and efficient esthetic treatment solutions. However, its application still faces challenges such as technical limitations, ethical concerns, and insufficient data diversity. In the future, with the integration of high-quality data, optimization of real-time learning technologies, and the advancement of multidisciplinary collaboration, AI is expected to further promote the intelligent and human-centered development of esthetic dentistry, bringing profound and positive impacts to patients and clinical practice.
