Cited dental research for professionals and students
Last Updated: September 16, 2026
Please read these Terms of Service ("Terms") carefully before using the DentalSource platform. By accessing or using DentalSource, you agree to be legally bound by these Terms. If you do not agree to these Terms, do not use the Services.
By accessing or using DentalSource, creating an account, submitting a query, or otherwise engaging with the Services, you represent that: (a) you have read, understood, and agree to be bound by these Terms and our Privacy Policy; (b) you are at least 18 years of age; and (c) you have the legal authority to enter into these Terms.
If you are using the Services on behalf of an organization, you represent and warrant that you have authority to bind that organization to these Terms, and "you" as used in these Terms refers to both you and that organization.
DentalSource reserves the right to modify these Terms at any time. Continued use of the Services after any modification constitutes acceptance of the modified Terms.
DentalSource retrieves dental literature and guidance and provides AI-generated, cited research summaries for dental professionals and dental students aged 18+. “Try one question free—no signup or credit card. Then $20/month to continue.” The specific sources shown depend on the question and what is available to retrieve, and no source-count guarantee is made.
Research access may include sources such as:
The service generates AI-synthesized summaries of relevant literature in response to research queries. Outputs are a starting point for research and education; citation verification, when shown, does not establish clinical correctness.
Free answer, subscription, and billing: An eligible signed-out visitor may receive one complete anonymous answer without signup, login, email, or a payment card. A usable answer is saved in a server-backed anonymous session and remains readable with its available source links on return in the same browser. If generation fails before a usable answer is saved, the visitor may retry. After signup, the anonymous answer and used allowance are attached to the account and persist there, so signup does not grant another free answer. Existing unpaid users retain an unused free allowance, and existing paid subscribers continue directly. Continuations, follow-up questions, regenerations, and additional questions require an active $20/month recurring subscription. Stripe handles checkout and payment. You may cancel through the Stripe customer portal; a cancellation scheduled at the end of a billing period keeps research access through that period, and access ends when the subscription entitlement is no longer active. These Terms do not create a refund promise.
DentalSource is intended for dental professionals and dental students aged 18+ using the service for research and education. Students do not need to claim professional licensure. It is not intended for patient-specific advice or for use by the general public to make health decisions.
By using DentalSource, you represent that you are at least 18 and are using the service for research or education. If you are a licensed professional, you remain responsible for complying with the laws and standards that apply to your practice. If you are a student, you must not represent yourself as licensed when you are not.
The Services are provided for educational and informational purposes only. DentalSource is not a diagnostic service, does not provide clinical diagnoses, and is not intended or designed to replace the clinical judgment of a qualified dental professional.
No dentist-patient relationship, provider-patient relationship, or any other professional relationship is created between DentalSource and any user or third party by virtue of use of the Services. DentalSource does not practice dentistry and does not provide dental or medical advice.
Clinical decisions, including diagnosis, treatment planning, prescribing, and patient management, remain exclusively within the professional judgment and legal responsibility of the treating dental professional. You should always review, verify, and independently evaluate any information generated by the Services before applying it in clinical practice.
You are solely responsible for evaluating the information provided through the Services and, if you are a licensed professional, for all clinical decisions made in connection with your practice. DentalSource provides research support only — the weight given to any output and any clinical decision rests with the appropriately qualified treating professional.
You acknowledge that AI-generated content may contain errors, omissions, or outdated information, and that no AI system can account for the unique facts of an individual patient's presentation, history, or circumstances. You agree to independently verify the accuracy, completeness, and currency of all information before relying upon it in clinical practice.
You are solely responsible for ensuring that your use of the Services complies with all applicable laws, regulations, professional licensing requirements, and ethical standards governing the practice of dentistry in your jurisdiction.
DentalSource is not a patient-facing advice service. Please be aware of the following:
Certain features of the Services require account registration. When registering, you agree to provide accurate, current, and complete information. After the anonymous or account allowance is used, an active $20/month subscription is required for additional questions, continuations, follow-ups, and regenerations. Reading the saved free answer and opening its available sources does not require a subscription.
Free and paid use is subject to reasonable request, concurrency, security, and abuse-prevention rate limits. Anonymous generation is also subject to a configurable total spending cap and may be paused when the cap or protective limits are reached. We do not use invasive browser fingerprinting and do not claim perfect one-per-person enforcement; cookie-based anonymous limits can be evaded. The subscription is not an unlimited-use offer, and limits may protect service reliability and fair access.
You are responsible for maintaining the confidentiality of your account credentials and for all activity that occurs under your account. You agree to notify DentalSource immediately at peter@dentalsource.ai if you become aware of any unauthorized use of your account.
You agree not to engage in any of the following activities in connection with the Services:
