Artificial intelligence (AI) is a rapidly evolving area, having had a transformative effect within some areas of medicine and dentistry. In dentistry, AI systems are contributing to clinical decision-making, diagnostics and treatment planning. Ongoing advances in AI technology will lead to further expansion of its existing applications and more widespread use within the field of dentistry. The predicted transformation of current practice within dentistry brought about by AI necessitates the education of undergraduate dental students on the topic of AI. AI will act as a complementary tool to clinical expertise and skill, rather than a replacement. AI education frameworks should integrate with existing traditional dental education. It is important that dental students develop a sound understanding of the ethical considerations surrounding AI, ensuring its safe and responsible use. This article aims to consider the status of current undergraduate dental education and the possible impact of AI, examining both the challenges and opportunities, and the practicalities, of incorporating AI into existing undergraduate dental curricula. Understanding and envisioning the future landscape shaped by AI will allow for development of a future dental workforce who are skilled, confident and responsible AI users.

There has been discussion and confusion about SNOMED-CT (systematised nomenclature of medicine clinical terminology), learning health systems (LHSs) and their relevance in dentistry. This article aims to provide an overview of SNOMED-CT, LHSs and the all-too-often omitted patient and service benefits from their use. LHSs are delivering impactful benefits to patients and services globally in medicine. There are some examples in dentistry, but these are few and lack the nationalised co-ordinated efforts supporting general medical practice (GP) electronic health record (EHR) databases. These impacts require research and insights from large-scale, linked EHR databases, for which SNOMED-CT will greatly facilitate. This opinion piece discusses SNOMED-CT, LHSs and the current state of EHR databases in dentistry with comparison to medical practice. Impactful examples of GP EHR database research are presented, as well as the potential benefits and disadvantages of EHR-based approaches in dentistry. Barriers to creating large dental EHR databases in the UK are discussed and potential solutions offered. Lastly, there is a call to action for multiple stakeholders, including dental clinicians, patients, academics, public health professionals, software suppliers, commissioners, and the government to co-ordinate efforts, including that of SNOMED-CT implementation, so that dentistry does not get excluded from the benefits of integrated LHSs.
