Osaka University Dental Hospital, Morita Co., Ltd., and Morita Manufacturing Co., Ltd. have started the development of "dental treatment recognition AI chair unit" that learns IoT sensing data in dental treatment and a huge amount of video during medical treatment by AI.Aim to improve the infrastructure for building big data for dental practice by the Osaka Expo.

 In recent dental care, there is an active movement to create new medical services that help solve social issues by reusing (secondary use) medical information in a safe and secure manner.However, the accumulation of data necessary for a bird's-eye view of the dental practice situation that can be used to solve problems is not sufficient.Therefore, the development group aims to improve the efficiency and safety of medical care by accumulating and utilizing dental medical care status data by fusing dental care and information machine technology.

 Currently, at Osaka University Dental Hospital, AI recognizes the process of dental treatment and is making efforts to automatically estimate the contents of various dental treatments (dental caries, root canal treatment, etc.).This time, by integrating this AI technology with the dental chair unit with IoT (Internet of Things) sensing developed by Morita Manufacturing Co., Ltd., the "dental treatment recognition AI chair unit" that can clearly record all events during dental treatment. Do development.

 By automatically creating medical records from the data obtained from this next-generation dental chair unit system to streamline medical care and monitoring the patient's condition, we aim to improve medical safety that can respond to immediate abnormalities.In the future, with the spread of this system, it aims to collect and analyze big data that monitors the status of dental practice around the world.

 This development will lead to proposals for future dentistry for the 2025 Osaka Expo, and will enable the provision of dentistry adapted to Japan's super-aged and diverse society.
