Abstract: 
Technology is evolving every day and the latest trends in Artificial Intelligence have made dental procedures less time consuming and minimally invasive. With their application the decision making processes have become easier and faster. Patients are more comfortable and dentists are more confident about their work. This advent of technology into medical science has made both practitioners and their patients comfortable and confident about the treatment rendered and received.  The use of machine learning has made the decision making process easier by stimulating human intelligence into the machines that are programmed to think like humans and mimic their actions. Artificial Intelligence has proved itself to be a boon in the field of dentistry. In future AI based comprehensive care systems are expected to have high quality patient care and help researchers know and treat more about diseases. Even though misconceptions and certain limitations about Artificial Intelligence prevails, it still continues to flourish due to its advantages in providing precision.
