Introduction: Although integrating artificial intelligence (AI) into dentistry has the potential to improve patient care, dental professionals', especially students', adoption of this technology is still unclear. The purpose of this study is to evaluate Fatima Jinnah dental college students' attitudes, knowledge, and worries about AI uses in dental care. Methodology: 109 dental students answered a cross-sectional survey. Participants completed a structured questionnaire asking how much they understood about AI, how concerned they were about its probable impacts, how much they felt it would benefit, and how receptive they were to employing AI in dentistry. Descriptive statistics and Chi-square tests let one examine the outcomes. Results: According to the results, 46.8% of students stated they understood artificial intelligence well enough; 32.1% indicated they believed they lacked sufficient understanding of it. The accuracy of the diagnosis, data security, and impact on the workforce were most concerns of most respondents. Especially, 41.3% of those who responded felt oral health improved and 39.4% felt artificial intelligence improved therapy. Strong correlations between students' perceptions of the advantages of artificial intelligence and their knowledge of how it may be applied generally were found by statistical analysis. Conclusion: Despite having a reasonable knowledge of artificial intelligence, dental students express significant concerns about its application. Targeted educational initiatives addressing these issues will equip students to apply artificial intelligence technologies in their future dental offices, therefore enhancing their readiness and hence improving patient care.
