Brief summary
Statement of problem: knowledge gap about knowledge, perception ,usage and concerns of artificial intelligence applications in periodontology among periodontists. Aim of the study: To investigate ' periodontists' knowledge, perception , usage and concerns towards AI systems' applications in periodontology. Materials and Methods This will be done by a self-administered, 33-item questionnaire . The questionnaire is divided into five sections.The first section, known as Part A, focus on five open-ended questions on sociodemographic characteristics, where participants enter their age, gender, academic affiliation. Part B consists of closed-ended questions, identifying the basic knowledge of the periodontists participating in AI using a Likert three-point scale (yes / no / maybe) . Part C consists of questions assessing the perception of periodontists towards the use of AI using a Likert three-point scale (yes / no / maybe). Part D consists of questions focusing on the usage of AI applications . part E consists of questions assessing concerns of AI applications in periodontology using a Likert three-point scale (yes / no / maybe) . This study will be conducted in accordance with the code of ethics of the research ethics committee at the faculty of dentistry, at Ain Shams University. This survey aims to assess the knowledge, perception , usage and concerns of AI applications among periodontists. The questionnaire will be distributed to periodontologists in the faculty of dentistry at Ain Shams University. Participants will be voluntary and anonymous.
