Abstract

OBJECTIVES: Canine-induced root resorption (CIRR) is caused by impacted canines and CBCT images have shown to be more accurate in diagnosing CIRR than panoramic and periapical radiographs with the reported AUCs being 0.95, 0.49, and 0.57, respectively. The aim of this study was to use deep learning to automatically evaluate the diagnosis of CIRR in maxillary incisors using CBCT images.
