About
Dr. Ming Hong Jim Pun is a pioneering researcher at the intersection of dentistry, robotics, and artificial intelligence. His work centers on evaluating the technological maturity and clinical readiness of AI-driven robotic systems in dental practice. In his landmark 2024 comprehensive review, "Technology Readiness Level of Robotic Technology and Artificial Intelligence in Dentistry," Dr. Pun synthesized findings from 39 studies spanning prosthodontics, orthodontics, implantology, oral surgery, and radiology. This highly cited work (11 citations) provides the field’s first transparent, systematic assessment of how far robotic and AI technologies have progressed toward real-world clinical deployment. By mapping each innovation onto the Technology Readiness Level scale, he offers practitioners and researchers a clear roadmap of which tools are truly ready for chairside use and which remain experimental. His contribution is vital for guiding investment, reducing hype, and accelerating safe adoption of intelligent automation in dentistry. Dr. Pun’s scholarship empowers clinicians to make evidence-based decisions about integrating cutting-edge technology, ultimately aiming to improve precision, efficiency, and patient outcomes in oral healthcare.
