Revolutionizing Orthodontics: Ai, Digital Technologies, and Patient-Centered Innovations

By: Ağrılı, Cansu Şeyma

This book explores the transformative shift of orthodontics from a focus on mechanical tooth movement to a holistic discipline integrated with biology, engineering, digital technologies, and neuroscience. It traces historical developments and examines modern innovations--such as intraoral scanners, CAD/CAM systems, clear aligners, and temporary anchorage devices--through the lens of clinical efficiency and scientific evidence. Moving beyond hardware, the text introduces a neuroscience-based perspective that redefines orthodontic pain as a dynamic experience shaped by patient emotions and practitioner trust. It offers strategic insights to enhance treatment comfort and patient satisfaction. Looking toward the horizon, the work discusses AI-driven diagnostics, tele-orthodontics for increased accessibility, and the ethical implications of data security and sustainability. Providing a valuable resource for practitioners, residents, and students, this book bridges the gap between technology and human welfare to achieve predictable, sustainable, and patient-centered outcomes in the digital age.
