Dr. Cami Tussie proves that you don't need decades of experience to be an AI innovator in dentistry. This Harvard orthodontic resident turned her childhood dental trauma—being born missing 13 teeth—into a passion for making dental visits less scary through AI.
What started as helping her dad stop calling her for email help has evolved into building custom GPTs that create personalized poems and cartoons for pediatric patients. Dr. Tussie walks us through exactly how to build these tools, why they work so well with kids and adults alike, and how practices are using them for marketing gold.
But this isn't just about fun and games. Cami delivers real talk about AI adoption challenges in dentistry, the critical importance of HIPAA compliance, and why the technology gap between DSOs and solo practices is becoming a serious competitive issue.
The bottom line? AI won't replace dentists, but dentists using AI will definitely outperform those who don't. And if an 8-year-old can love going to the dentist because of a custom cartoon, imagine what's possible when we stop running from AI and start running toward it.
