Abstract

BACKGROUND: While artificial intelligence-driven approaches have shown great promise in dental diagnosis and treatment planning, most research focuses on dental radiographs. Only three studies have explored automated tooth numbering in oral photographs, all focusing on permanent dentition. Our study aimed to introduce an automated system for detection and numbering of teeth across mixed and permanent dentitions in occlusal photographs.
