The aim of this study was to evaluate the long-term effectiveness of an AI dental monitoring intervention on patients' periodontal disease, preventive behaviors and motivation. This randomized controlled trial included experimental group: AI group (EG-A), AI-humanized group (EG-B) and control group(CG), respectively. The EG-A and EG-B received AI dental monitoring intervention by taking mouth image at home once a week for six month. Baseline and follow-up surveys were used to collect the data in oral health related quality of life,periodontal parameters, periodontal preventive behaviors and motivation.

Treatments
Experimental: Experimental group A (AI Group: EG-A)
The AI group scanned their own mouths at home once a week for 6 months, with each scan taking approximately 5 min. After scanning, they uploaded the results to the AI system for evaluation. The AI system then selected and sent a message to each patient depending on their intraoral conditions.
Experimental: Experimental group B (AI and health counseling group: EG-B)
The AI and health counseling group scanned their own mouths at home once a week for 6 months, with each scan taking approximately 5 min. After scanning, they uploaded the results to the AI system for evaluation. The EG-B received both AI-assisted DM and real-person oral health counseling and advice from a counselor, who assessed their oral hygiene conditions on the basis of their scanning results and then provided individualized counseling, such as pointing out unclean teeth and offering suggestions on cleaning tools.
No_intervention: No Intervention: Control group (CG)
