Objective To analyze the research status and summarize research hotspots and development trends of research on artificial intelligence in stomatology. Methods Data retrieved from the Web of Science Core Collection database from inception to 2021 were analyzed by CiteSpace software. Results The number of publications about artificial intelligence in stomatology was rising. The United States ranked first in terms of publications and cooperation capabilities. Apart from comprehensive stomatology journals, the literature was mainly published by specialist journals of oral and maxillofacial surgery, orthodontic and dental radiology. Oral head and neck tumors were the frontier field of artificial intelligence research in stomatology. Artificial intelligence, including deep learning and neural networks, showed the tremendous potential medical value and economic value in assisting in the diagnosis and treatment decisions of oral diseases. Conclusion The research of artificial intelligence in stomatology has rapidly increased, which is conducive to the development of stomatology in the direction of digitalization, intelligence, and individuation.
