This means we can now bring AI-powered dental screening directly to individuals and communities, with the full confidence of HSA\u2019s regulatory oversight behind it.\u201d<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<p class=\"_base_1s8rd_1 _default_1s8rd_12\">Oral Link has already trialled the AI tool at screening events held at Siglap Community Centre and Kreta Ayer Community Centre. The company is also working with Nanyang Polytechnic to create an AI companion chatbot to help users understand their results and navigate any next steps, if required.<\/p>\n<h2 class=\"_subHeading1_1k87u_111 _base_1k87u_1\"\/><\/div>\n<p><br \/>\n<center><br \/>\n<br \/><a href=\"https:\/\/www.hardwarezone.com.sg\/lifestyle\/ai\/oral-links-ai-dental-tool-lets-you-submit-smartphone-photos-your-teeth-and-get-diagnosis\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Read Full Article At Source <\/a><br \/>\n<center\/><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Singapore-based Oral Link has developed an AI dental analysis tool that has received certification from Singapore\u2019s Health Sciences Authority (HSA) as a Class B medical&#8230;<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":1,"featured_media":83162,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"fifu_image_url":"","fifu_image_alt":"","footnotes":""},"categories":[32],"tags":[516,17000,407,7522],"class_list":["post-83161","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","category-tech-gadgets-reviews","tag-dental","tag-diagnosis","tag-photos","tag-smartphone","wpcat-32-id"],"brizy_media":[],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/sgbuzz.com\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/posts\/83161","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/sgbuzz.com\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/sgbuzz.com\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/sgbuzz.com\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/users\/1"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/sgbuzz.com\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Fcomments&post=83161"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/sgbuzz.com\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/posts\/83161\/revisions"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/sgbuzz.com\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/media\/83162"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/sgbuzz.com\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Fmedia&parent=83161"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/sgbuzz.com\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Fcategories&post=83161"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/sgbuzz.com\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Ftags&post=83161"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
