Panoramic dental radiographs require fine-grained spatial reasoning, bilateral symmetry understanding, and multi-step diagnostic verification, yet existing vision-language models operate under a static single-pass paradigm that limits their clinical reliability. In this paper, we introduce OralGPT-Plus, an agentic vision-language model designed to perform iterative and symmetry-aware diagnostic reasoning for panoramic dental radiograph analysis. To support this paradigm, we construct DentalProbe, a five-thousand-image dataset with expert-curated diagnostic trajectories that provide structured supervision for localized inspection and contralateral comparison. We further develop a Reinspection-driven reinforcement learning framework that encourages clinically meaningful re-examination and stabilizes long-horizon reasoning with rubric-based reward and conditioned diagnostic-driven reward. In parallel, we present MMOral-X, the first benchmark for holistic panoramic diagnosis, containing 300 open-ended questions and region-level annotations across multiple difficulty levels. OralGPT-Plus demonstrates consistent and reliable improvements over strong baselines on MMOral-X and established panoramic benchmarks, indicating the effectiveness of interactive and symmetry-informed reasoning. Our work highlights the value of agentic modeling for dental imaging and provides a foundation for future research in clinically aligned panoramic radiograph analysis.

Multimodal Large Language Models (MLLMs) have exhibited immense potential across numerous medical specialties, yet dentistry remains underexplored, in part due to limited domain-specific data, scarce dental expert annotations, insufficient modality-specific modeling, and challenges in reliability. In this paper, we present OralGPT-Omni, the first dental-specialized MLLM designed for comprehensive and trustworthy analysis across diverse dental imaging modalities and clinical tasks. To explicitly capture dentists' diagnostic reasoning, we construct TRACE-CoT, a clinically grounded chain-of-thought dataset that mirrors dental radiologists' decision-making processes. This reasoning supervision, combined with our proposed four-stage training paradigm, substantially strengthens the model's capacity for dental image understanding and analysis. In parallel, we introduce MMOral-Uni, the first unified multimodal benchmark for dental image analysis. It comprises 2,809 open-ended question-answer pairs spanning five modalities and five tasks, offering a comprehensive evaluation suite to date for MLLMs in digital dentistry. OralGPT-Omni achieves an overall score of 51.84 on the MMOral-Uni benchmark and 45.31 on the MMOral-OPG benchmark, dramatically outperforming the scores of GPT-5. Our work promotes intelligent dentistry and paves the way for future advances in dental image analysis. All code, benchmark, and models will be made publicly available.
