In this episode, host Finn Geoghegan, EOS Honorary Secretary, speaks with Philippe Salah, CEO of Dental Monitoring, and Aman Ulhaq, EOS Treasurer and Consultant Orthodontist in the UK, to explore the growing role of artificial intelligence in orthodontics.

Key topics include:
AI across the orthodontic workflow – From referrals and triage to monitoring, administration, retention and patient communication, the conversation explores where AI could reduce repetitive tasks and allow clinicians to focus their time where their expertise matters most.

Technology, quality and patient care – How digital tools can support more personalised treatment pathways, improve efficiency and help orthodontists deliver a higher-quality patient experience without losing the human element of care.

Adoption, evidence and clinical judgement – Why new technology should not be adopted simply because it is available, and the importance of appropriate protocols, training, critical appraisal and understanding the evidence before integrating AI into clinical practice.

Research, industry and transparency – A discussion on collaboration between clinicians, universities and technology companies, including data access, research methodology, ethics, GDPR and the value of openly learning from both successful and unsuccessful outcomes.

Tune in for a forward-looking conversation about how AI could reshape orthodontic practice — and why clinical judgement, transparency and quality must remain at the centre of innovation.
