Impactos do ChatGPT na Odontologia

Introduction

Impactos do chatgpt na odontologia. Explore os impactos do ChatGPT na Odontologia. Revisão crítica aponta benefícios da IA na academia e consultórios, auxiliando em tarefas e treinamento. Não substitui o profissional.

Abstract

Este estudo teve como objetivo investigar os impactos do ChatGPT no campo da Odontologia, por meio de uma revisão narrativa com análise crítica realizada nas bases de dados Science Direct, PubMed, Scopus e Web of Science, utilizando descritores nos campos de busca, como “Inteligência Artificial” e “Odontologia”. Foram estabelecidos critérios de elegibilidade relacionados à língua (artigos científicos publicados em inglês e português), originalidade (artigos originais), período (publicados de 2021 a 2023), disponibilidade (acesso completo) e tema (relacionado à ferramenta ChatGPT). Os artigos que tratavam de outro tipo de ferramenta de Inteligência Artificial ou que não atendiam aos critérios de inclusão foram excluídos do estudo. Após a triagem, treze estudos foram selecionados, que, em sua maioria, apontaram os benefícios relacionados ao uso e às funcionalidades do ChatGPT para a Odontologia. O ChatGPT pode ser utilizado na academia, apoiando o treinamento e o desenvolvimento de atividades extracurriculares. Em consultórios odontológicos, o ChatGPT pode auxiliar em tarefas burocráticas e na triagem automatizada. No entanto, é importante ressaltar que essa ferramenta não substitui o conhecimento e a experiência do profissional. Conclui-se que a aplicabilidade do ChatGPT na Odontologia é uma realidade que precisa ser mais explorada, pois representa um recurso importante e impacta a saúde e, consequentemente, a Odontologia.

Review

The paper "Impactos do ChatGPT na Odontologia" addresses a highly contemporary and relevant topic: the influence of ChatGPT within the dental field. Through a narrative review encompassing major scientific databases, the study aimed to synthesize existing literature on this emerging technology. The abstract clearly outlines the methodology, including specific eligibility criteria for article selection, ultimately identifying thirteen pertinent studies. The primary finding suggests a predominant trend of benefits associated with ChatGPT's functionalities, particularly in academic settings for training and development, and in dental offices for administrative support and automated triage. This timely investigation offers a valuable overview of the current landscape of AI integration in dentistry, providing a foundational understanding of its potential utility. A key strength of this work lies in its timely focus on ChatGPT, a rapidly evolving AI tool, and its specific application to the domain of dentistry. The authors' systematic approach to database searching across Science Direct, PubMed, Scopus, and Web of Science, coupled with clearly defined inclusion and exclusion criteria (language, originality, publication period, accessibility, and theme), enhances the robustness of their literature identification process for a narrative review. The study effectively highlights tangible applications for ChatGPT in both dental education and clinical practice, underscoring its potential to streamline bureaucratic tasks, support training, and assist with initial patient interactions. Crucially, the paper reinforces the vital caveat that ChatGPT serves as a supportive tool, not a substitute for the professional knowledge and expertise of dental practitioners, a responsible and important distinction to make. While commendable in its scope, the review could benefit from a more explicit delineation of its "critical analysis" methodology. The abstract, while stating a critical analysis was performed, does not detail the specific framework or criteria used to evaluate the quality or potential biases of the included studies. Given the nature of a narrative review, the synthesis of findings could be further strengthened by discussing any observed inconsistencies, limitations, or even potential risks associated with ChatGPT beyond the general statement that it doesn't replace a professional. For instance, ethical considerations, data privacy implications, or the potential for misinformation are critical aspects of AI integration that could be explored. Expanding on these elements would provide a more comprehensive and balanced perspective on the "impacts" of ChatGPT, moving beyond a largely benefit-focused discussion to include a robust assessment of challenges and future research directions.
