Background: Technology has become a fundamental part of human living. The evolution of technology has been advantageous to science development, including dentistry. One of the latest technology that draw many attention is Artificial Intelligence (AI). Purpose: The aim of this review is to explain the use of AI in many disciplines of dental specialties and its benefit. Reviews: The application of Artificial Intelligence may be beneficial for all dental specialties, varying from pediatric dentist to oral surgeon. In dental clinic management, AI may assist in medical record as well as other paperwork. AI would also give a valuable contribution in important dental procedures, such as diagnosis and clinical decision making. It helps the dentist deliver the best treatment for the patients. Conclusion: The latest development of Artificial Intelligence is beneficial for dental practitioner in the near future. It is considered as a breakthrough of the 21st century to support the diagnostic procedure and decision making in clinical practice. The use of AI can be applied in most of dental specialties.

In this paper we deal with a uniformly elliptic operator of the kind: Lu  Au + Vu, where the principal part A is in divergence form, and V is a function assumed in a “Kato class”. This operator has been studied in different contexts, especially using probabilistic techniques. The aim of the present work is to give a unified and simplified presentation of the results obtained with non probabilistic methods for the operator L on a bounded Lipschitz domain. These results regard: continuity of the solutions of Lu=0; Harnack inequality; estimates on the Green's function and L-harmonic measure; boundary behavior of positive solutions of Lu=0, in particular a “Fatou's theorem”.
