Abstract
Since ChatGPT was released in 2022, it has been used in various settings and has rapidly been adopted worldwide. The main objective of this review was to provide a comprehensive assessment of the accuracy, reliability, usefulness, and limitations of ChatGPT in dentistry. PubMed, Scopus, and Web of Science databases were searched using the terms "ChatGPT" and "dentistry", and 63 papers were extracted. Of the 63 records identified, medical consultation and assistance were the most common, accounting for 35 of 63 records (53.8 %), followed by study assistance and confirmation tests with 16 records (24.6 %), national and specialist dental examinations with 8 records (12.3 %), and dental research with 4 records (6.2 %). Although ChatGPT can offer many possibilities in the dental field, researchers and dentists should evaluate and use it carefully because ChatGPT answers are not always reliable, and there is a possibility of information leakage. Although its limitations need to be considered, ChatGPT has the potential to revolutionize dental diagnosis, treatment, education, and research.
