Environmental noise levels were measured, and two microphone types (stationary and pin-type) were evaluated. Periodontal probing phrases composed of three-digit numbers and positional terms were used for speech recognition. Consistent with common clinical practice in Korea, numerical values were spoken in Korean, whereas positional terms were spoken in English. Two speech-to-text application programming interfaces, Google Cloud Speech-to-Text and Naver Clova Speech Recognition, were assessed. Recognition accuracy was evaluated for both numerical components and complete bilingual phrases.Results: The mean environmental noise level was 60.65 dB and was minimally influenced by activity at adjacent dental chairs. The stationary microphone failed to capture speech effectively, whereas the pin-type microphone demonstrated stable recognition performance. For three-digit number recognition, accuracy was 88.3% with Google and 96.8% with Naver. For full-phrase recognition, complete matching was achieved in 36.7% of cases for Google and 52.5% for Naver. Partial recognition occurred more frequently for numerical components than for English positional terms.Conclusions: Voice recognition-based EMR documentation for periodontal probing demonstrated preliminary feasibility in a dental clinical environment; however, performance was influenced by Korean-English bilingual speech patterns. These findings suggest that bilingual speech characteristics should be considered when implementing voice recognition systems in dental EMR workflows. Further optimization is required before routine clinical application.<\/jats:p>","DOI":"10.4258\/hir.2026.32.2.118","type":"journal-article","created":{"date-parts":[[2026,5,8]],"date-time":"2026-05-08T06:57:31Z","timestamp":1778223451000},"page":"118-124","update-policy":"https:\/\/doi.org\/10.4258\/crossmark_policy","source":"Crossref","is-referenced-by-count":1,"title":["Voice
