Abstract
Artificial intelligence (AI), particularly through machine learning (ML) and deep learning (DL) techniques such as convolutional neural networks (CNNs) and natural language processing (NLP), has shown remarkable promise in image analysis and clinical documentation in oral pathology. In order to explore the transformative potential of artificial intelligence (AI) in oral pathology, this review highlights key studies demonstrating current AI's improvement in oral pathology, such as detecting oral diseases accurately and streamlining diagnostic processes. However, several limitations, such as data quality, generalizability, legal and ethical considerations, financial constraints, and the need for paradigm shifts in practice, are critically examined. Addressing these challenges through collaborative efforts, robust validation, and strategic integration can pave the way for AI to revolutionize oral pathology, ultimately improving patient outcomes and advancing the field.
