Abstract
Artificial Intelligence (AI) is a scope of technology that mimics human behaviour and portrays high level intelligence. AI has recently been incorporated into various fields ranging from arts, industry, food and technology itself. But there are numerous ethical barriers to cross when we consider using AI in medical practices. The objective of this study is to understand the ethical perceptions of dentists on the integration of the use of AI in dental treatment. A survey-based cross-sectional study was carried out among the interns, clinicians and academicians from dental institutes to assess their current perspectives and promptness to integrate AI into their practices. The use of AI has been highly receptive among the respondents though there is a sizable fear of the indiscriminate use of AI. It is suggested that it be used responsibly under human authentication so as to enhance and optimize the use of technology in dental services.
