Dr. Reinhard Chau, founder of Dentomi Limited and a researcher at the University of Hong Kong’s Faculty of Dentistry, shared insights into how AI is transforming oral health through early caries detection, remote disease monitoring and machine learning-driven treatment planning.
The seminar was attended by 87 graduate students and aimed to connect academic learning with real-world applications. Dr. Chau’s expertise in both academia and entrepreneurship offered valuable perspectives. He has secured over HK$9 million in funding for AI-driven dental technologies. After his presentation, a discussion session allowed students to explore practical challenges and opportunities for implementing AI solutions in healthcare.
