6 Questions to Ask Your Dentist About AI-Assisted X-Rays, From Tempe's Cereus Dental Care

TEMPE, Ariz. - Rezul -- As more dental offices add artificial intelligence to their x-ray workflow, patients are left with a fair question: what should I ask? Cereus Dental Care, a family dental practice in south Tempe led by Dr. Daniel J. Lyu, DDS, FAGD, has put together a short checklist to help patients feel informed at their next visit.

The practice uses Pearl, an AI platform that evaluates dental radiographs and highlights areas a dentist may want to examine more closely.

"Patients do not need to understand the technology in detail, but they should always understand their own results," said Dr. Lyu. "Asking questions is part of good dental care."

6 questions to ask your dentist

1. Who makes the final diagnosis? A licensed dentist should review every image.
2. Can I see what was flagged? Ask to view the highlighted x-ray on screen.
3. Does every flag need treatment? Not necessarily. It may mean treatment, monitoring, or no action.
4. What is the technology's regulatory status? Patients can search the FDA's public device databases by product name.
5. How is my information handled? Ask how images and data are stored and accessed.
6. Can you explain this in my language? Korean-speaking patients are welcome at Cereus Dental Care.

Cereus Dental Care is marking five years in south Tempe. Dr. Lyu is a Fellow of the Academy of General Dentistry (FAGD), a designation that requires extensive continuing education.
