Detailed Description

Oral health deterioration is a well-documented consequence of smoking, including periodontal disease, tooth discoloration, and oral cancer. Recent advancements in artificial intelligence (AI) have led to the development of AI Molar Mind, a digital tool designed to assess oral health and provide personalized feedback to motivate behavioral change. This study aims to evaluate the efficacy of AI Molar Mind in aiding smoking cessation by leveraging oral health evaluations as a motivational tool.
