Abstract

OBJECTIVES: Bone level as measured by clinical attachment levels (CAL) are critical findings that determine the diagnosis of periodontal disease. Deep learning algorithms are being used to determine CAL which aid in the diagnosis of periodontal disease. However, the limited field-of-view of bitewing x-rays poses a challenge for convolutional neural networks (CNN) because out-of-view anatomy cannot be directly considered. This study presents an inpainting algorithm using generative adversarial networks (GANs) coupled with partial convolutions to predict out-of-view anatomy to enhance CAL prediction accuracy.
