Abstract

OBJECTIVES: Analysis of dental radiographs is an important part of the diagnostic process in daily clinical practice. Interpretation by an expert includes teeth detection and numbering. In this project, a novel solution based on convolutional neural networks (CNNs) is proposed that performs this task automatically for panoramic radiographs.
