Biography

Dr Jasmine Loke

Dr. Jasmine Loke completed her Bachelor of Dental Surgery at King's College London in 2018 and subsequently pursued further training in oral maxillofacial surgery in Manchester. She successfully completed the three-year King's College London Periodontology MClinDent program in 2023. Throughout her dental training, she was the recipient of several clinical prizes, including the 2023 BSP Clinical Fellowship Award.

 

Driven by her passion for dentistry and technology, Jasmine conducted research on the application of artificial intelligence (AI) in furcation diagnosis and classification for her MClinDent dissertation. Collaborating with machine learning engineers, she developed an AI algorithm from scratch to detect and outline bone levels, root, and tooth morphology on two-dimensional dental x-rays. She will present her research and insights on AI at the 2024 IADR conference in New Orleans. Jasmine was also awarded a grant from the Hong Kong Government to support the advancement of AI research and application in dentistry.

 

Currently, Jasmine balances her work in private practice with research in periodontology and dental technology. Her aim is to improve the accuracy of automation in radiographic analysis and integrate AI into dental care, with the ultimate goal of enhancing patient care outcomes and experiences.

Biography

Dr Pasquale Santamaria

Dr. Pasquale Santamaria qualified in Italy in 2015 and then undertook a 2-year core training  in the Periodontology Department at the G. D’Annunzio University in Italy. He is a registered Dental Specialist in Oral Surgery in the UK, following completion of a full-time 3-year Master in Oral Surgery.

 

He was awarded a research fellowship in Italy for two years on the role of stem cells in bone regeneration and completed a one-year International Master in Research in Dentistry at the UIC University in Barcelona.

 

He is a PhD candidate in Periodontology at the King’s College London, focusing his research on molars with advanced furcation involvement, furthermore he is co-author of a multicentre project which presented an AI-prediction model to determine tooth-loss on molars with furcation defects.

 

He has been recently awarded the prestigious Clinical Research Fellowship Award by the British Society of Periodontology and Implant Dentistry, and also a research grant by the Oral and Dental Research Trust and GlaxoSmithKline. He was also invited to attend at the The Alan Turing Institute the fourth edition of AI UK, the UK's national showcase of data science and artificial intelligence (AI) research and innovation.
