Introduction: Using technology in health care is purposed to increase the quality of treatment, improve communication between medical and dental centers, enhance precision in dental procedures, optimize access to specialists and reduce treatment costs. This study aimed to evaluate attitude and practice of dentists regarding use of digital and computer technology in dentistry in Rasht.
Methods: This analytical cross-sectional study was conducted on 190 dentists in Rasht using a questionnaire that examined the attitude and practice of dentists in 3 fields of using Administrative and communication digital technologies, clinical and diagnostic digital technologies, and dentists' attitudes on the use of technology and its results. To analyze the data, independent t-test, Mann Whitney test, and Spearman correlation test were used (α=0.05).
Results: Eighty-seven dentists (45.7 %) had medium use of Administrative and communication digital technologies, and four of them (9.5 %) had high use. Regarding the use of clinical and diagnostic digital technologies, 179 participants (94.2%) had low use. Most dentists had a high (66.2%) and average (27.4 %) attitude. No significant relationship was observed between dentist’s attitudes, the amount of use of digital communication and administrative technologies, and the use of clinical and diagnostic digital technology towards demographic variables. However, the amount of use of clinical and diagnostic digital technology has a significant relationship with the type of degree (p = 0.006).
Conclusion: Although the level of digital technology use by dentists in various fields was not high, the attitude of most of them was above average.
