The University of Rochester received a $1,000,000 project grant award from the National Science Foundation under the Computer and Information Science and Engineering program (CFDA 47.070). The grant will support the development of a smart, connected oral health community infrastructure utilizing artificial intelligence and digital technologies to address oral health disparities from tooth decay.

The university will create and test a community-based model combining at-home smartphone use with interactive oral health community centers, mobile vans, and community health workers. The model aims to improve access to oral healthcare and promote greater equity. Key activities include refining AI-powered oral disease screening and management using cloud surveillance and a dentistry smartphone app. Researchers will also investigate social dimensions and establish oral health community centers supported by community health workers. Outcomes will assess technology tools for caries detection and treatment prioritization as well as community engagement with oral health services. The project completion date is May 31, 2026.
