86 › Ai in Dentistry: Dr. Shah's Vision to Return Power to Practitioners

Dr. Kianor Shah illuminates the human journey behind his remarkable transformation from immigrant to global healthcare pioneer. Born amidst revolution in Iran and witnessing historic moments across three countries, his authentic brilliance emerged from these unique experiences, fueling his mission to return healthcare control to doctors. Despite fierce resistance when launching World's Top Doctors in 2020, his wholehearted commitment never wavered. As founder of the Dental Artificial Intelligence Association, Dr. Shah envisions AI not as a threat but as a powerful tool to eliminate corporate middlemen and restore the doctor-patient relationship. With organizations spanning six continents, his journey reveals that when you bet on yourself and embrace risk, your authentic brilliance becomes your evolutionary advantage in transforming an entire profession.
