Webinar: Trust, Compassion and AI – A Multidisciplinary Dialogue for Dental Professionals

As artificial intelligence reshapes healthcare delivery, dental professionals face fundamental questions: How do we maintain the trust our patients place in us? Can AI enhance rather than diminish compassionate care?

This RCDC webinar brings together three perspectives on these critical questions.

Dr. Thomas Nguyen opens by examining trust in AI adoption, exploring how dental professionals perceive, develop, and recalibrate their trust in AI tools. These findings will highlight the critical role that trust plays in the effective adoption and use of AI in clinical practice.

Professor Abdi Aidid of the University of Toronto Faculty of Law follows with insights on AI ethics in high-stakes applications, drawing parallels between healthcare and legal contexts where algorithmic decision-making carries profound consequences.

Dr. Peter Fritz concludes by demonstrating practical applications of AI for compassionate care, sharing the tools he uses daily in clinical practice to solve problems while keeping patients at the center.

Together, these perspectives offer dental professionals a framework for navigating AI adoption that honours our profession’s core commitment to trustworthy, compassionate patient care.
