Expert System for Dental Disease Diagnosis with Forward Chaining Method at Sidoarjo Dental Clinic

Abstract

A Dental health is very important. For most Indonesians, the recommendation to have their teeth checked every six months is generally considered less important because they prioritize the health of other organs of the body. In fact, diseases that attack the teeth can have a very pronounced impact, such as cosmetic problems. Applied computer science research in the field of medicine, especially dental disease problems at the clinic sidoarjo, uses the concept of an expert system. An expert system is a system in the form of computer software in which the computer is created to think like an expert system. The search method used is forward chaining with a decision tree, namely tracing known facts that support the conclusions drawn. This expert system facilitates patient consultations to manage symptom data along with diseases and patient data can be seen from the results of a very useful diagnosis, which can be used as an initial diagnosis by a doctor.
