Four notes: 

1. The proposed technical report focuses on the need for an independent dataset to validate AI algorithms that are used to analyze 2D dental images. 

2. The ADA said Oct. 2 that the dataset would be established based on known diagnoses from validated sources and kept by a third party, which should not be an AI manufacturer.

3. The report also proposes methods for establishing the dataset.

4. The document is available for comment until Nov. 7. 

At the Becker's 5th Annual Future of Dentistry Roundtable, taking place September 14-15 in Chicago, dental leaders and executives will gain insights into emerging technologies, practice growth strategies and the evolving landscape of dental care delivery, with a focus on innovation, patient experience and operational excellence.
