OBJECTIVES: To develop and evaluate the performance of a deep learning system based on convolutional neural network (ConvNet) to detect dental caries from oral photographs.
OBJECTIVE: We introduced a humanoid robot for the use of techno-psychological distraction techniques in children aged 4-10 to reduce their anxiety and improve their behaviour during dental treatment.
OBJECTIVES: We aimed to apply deep learning to detect caries lesions of different radiographic extension on bitewings, hypothesizing it to be significantly more accurate than individual dentists.
BACKGROUND: Dental plaque causes many common oral diseases (e.g., caries, gingivitis, and periodontitis). Therefore, plaque detection and control are extremely important for children's oral health. The objectives of this study were to design a deep l...

BACKGROUND AND OBJECTIVE: Streptococcus mutans is the primary initiator and most common organism associated with dental caries. Prediction of post-Streptococcus mutans favours in the selection of appropriate caries excavation method which eventually ...
Dental caries is the most prevalent chronic condition worldwide. Early detection can significantly improve treatment outcomes and reduce the need for invasive procedures. Recently, near-infrared transillumination (TI) imaging has been shown to be eff...
OBJECTIVES: Deep convolutional neural networks (CNNs) are a rapidly emerging new area of medical research, and have yielded impressive results in diagnosis and prediction in the fields of radiology and pathology. The aim of the current study was to e...

Researchers have suggested that combining topical fluoride with an antiseptic to reduce cariogenic bacteria may be more effective than fluoride application alone in preventing dental caries. In previous studies, povidone iodine (PVP-I), a widely used...
Despite a decrease in the incidence of dental caries over the past four decades, it remains a widespread public health concern. The multifactorial etiology of dental caries complicates effective prevention and early intervention efforts, underscoring...
