Abstract: ABSTRACT OF THE INVENTION The present disclosure relates to Artificial Intelligence (AI)-based system and method for automated gingival biotype assessment and intelligent prosthetic component selection for dental implant rehabilitation. The invention integrates artificial intelligence, machine learning, multimodal imaging, predictive analytics, and CAD/CAM technologies to provide a personalized digital implant prosthodontic workflow. The system acquires patient-specific data from intraoral scanning, cone-beam computed tomography (CBCT), facial scanning, digital photography, and clinical records to generate a three-dimensional digital patient model. AI algorithms analyze gingival thickness, gingival contour, soft tissue volume, biological width, peri-implant tissue characteristics, and esthetic parameters to classify gingival biotype and predict treatment outcomes. Based on the analysis, the system recommends suitable implant prosthetic components, restorative materials, emergence profiles, and customized restorations. The invention enables standardized decision-making, reduces operator dependency, improves prosthetic accuracy, enhances esthetic predictability, and continuously learns from clinical outcomes to optimize future implant rehabilitation.
