The convergence of medical imaging, computer vision, and orthodontics has made automatic cephalometric landmark detection a pivotal area of research. Accurate cephalometric analysis is crucial in orthodontics, orthognathic and maxillofacial surgery f...
BACKGROUND: Analyzing the morphological growth changes upon mandibular advancement between Twin Block (TB) and Functional Regulator II (FR2) in Class II patients involves measuring the condylar and mandibular changes in terms of linear and volumetric...
BACKGROUND: Facial aesthetics is one of major motivations for seeking orthodontic treatment. However, even for experienced professionals, the impact and extent of incisor and soft tissue changes remain largely empirical. With the application of inter...
OBJECTIVES: This study aimed to enhance clinical diagnostics for quantitative cervical vertebral maturation (QCVM) staging with precise landmark localization. Existing methods are often subjective and time-consuming, while deep learning alternatives ...
Orthognathic surgery, or corrective jaw surgery, is performed to correct severe dentofacial deformities and is increasingly sought for cosmetic purposes. Accurate prediction of surgical outcomes is essential for selecting the optimal treatment plan a...
BACKGROUND: Digital cephalometric analyses, including those assisted by artificial intelligence (AI), are widely used in clinical practice. Similarly, computer-assisted learning has demonstrated teaching outcomes comparable to those of traditional me...
The precise and efficient diagnosis of an individual's skeletal class is necessary in orthodontics to ensure correct and stable treatment planning. However, it is difficult to efficiently determine the true skeletal class due to several correlations ...

OBJECTIVE: To propose a new protocol for personalized mandibular reconstruction assisted by three-dimensional (3D) retrieval model based on fully connected neural network (FCNN) and a database of mandibles, and to verify clinical feasibility of the p...
BACKGROUND: Classification is one of the most common tasks in artificial intelligence (AI) driven fields in dentistry and orthodontics. The AI abilities can significantly improve the orthodontist's critical mission to diagnose and treat patients prec...
