In recent years, there has been the notable emergency of artificial intelligence (AI) as a transformative force in multiple domains, including orthodontics. This review aims to provide a comprehensive overview of the present state of AI applications in orthodontics, which can be categorized into the following domains: (1) diagnosis, including cephalometric analysis, dental analysis, facial analysis, skeletal-maturation-stage determination and upper-airway obstruction assessment; (2) treatment planning, including decision making for extractions and orthognathic surgery, and treatment outcome prediction; and (3) clinical practice, including practice guidance, remote care, and clinical documentation. We have witnessed a broadening of the application of AI in orthodontics, accompanied by advancements in its performance. Additionally, this review outlines the existing limitations within the field and offers future perspectives.
近年来，人工智能（AI）作为一股变革力量在包括正畸学在内的多个领域显著兴起。本综述旨在全面概述人工智能在正畸学中的应用现状，其可分为以下领域：（1）诊断，包括头影测量分析、牙齿分析、面部分析、骨骼成熟阶段判定及上气道阻塞评估；（2）治疗计划，包括拔牙及正颌手术的决策制定以及治疗结果预测；（3）临床实践，包括实践指导、远程护理及临床记录。我们见证了人工智能在正畸学中的应用范围不断扩大，同时其性能也在不断提升。此外，本综述概述了该领域目前存在的局限性并提供了未来展望。
