AI-powered segmentation of bifid mandibular canals using CBCT.

BMC oral health
OBJECTIVE: Accurate segmentation of the mandibular and bifid canals is crucial in dental implant planning to ensure safe implant placement, third molar extractions and other surgical interventions. The objective of this study is to develop and valida...

Automated landmark-based mid-sagittal plane: reliability for 3-dimensional mandibular asymmetry assessment on head CT scans.

Clinical oral investigations
OBJECTIVE: The determination of the mid-sagittal plane (MSP) on three-dimensional (3D) head imaging is key to the assessment of facial asymmetry. The aim of this study was to evaluate the reliability of an automated landmark-based MSP to quantify man...

Fully automated evaluation of condylar remodeling after orthognathic surgery in skeletal class II patients using deep learning and landmarks.

Journal of dentistry
OBJECTIVE: Condylar remodeling is a key prognostic indicator in maxillofacial surgery for skeletal class II patients. This study aimed to develop and validate a fully automated method leveraging landmark-guided segmentation and registration for effic...

Automatic mandibular third molar and mandibular canal relationship determination based on deep learning models for preoperative risk reduction.

Clinical oral investigations
OBJECTIVES: This study explores the application of deep learning models for classifying the spatial relationship between mandibular third molars and the mandibular canal using cone-beam computed tomography images. Accurate classification of this rela...

Accuracy of artificial intelligence-based segmentation in maxillofacial structures: a systematic review.

BMC oral health
OBJECTIVE: The aim of this review was to evaluate the accuracy of artificial intelligence (AI) in the segmentation of teeth, jawbone (maxilla, mandible with temporomandibular joint), and mandibular (inferior alveolar) canal in CBCT and CT scans.

Artificial intelligence-assisted identification and assessment of mandibular asymmetry on panoramic radiography.

American journal of orthodontics and dentofacial orthopedics : official publication of the American Association of Orthodontists, its constituent societies, and the American Board of Orthodontics
INTRODUCTION: Mandibular symmetry is crucial in orthodontic diagnosis and treatment planning. This study aimed to establish an artificial intelligence (AI) method to automatically and accurately identify mandibular landmarks and assess asymmetry via ...

Three-dimensional analysis of mandibular and condylar growth using artificial intelligence tools: a comparison of twin-block and Frankel II Appliances.

BMC oral health
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...

Panoramic radiographic features for machine learning based detection of mandibular third molar root and inferior alveolar canal contact.

Scientific reports
This study uses machine learning (ML) to elucidate the contact relationship between the mandibular third molar (M3M) and the inferior alveolar canal (IAC), leading to three major contributions; (1) The first publicly accessible PR image dataset with ...

Assessment of hard tissue changes after horizontal guided bone regeneration with the aid of deep learning CBCT segmentation.

Clinical oral investigations
OBJECTIVES: To investigate the performance of a deep learning (DL) model for segmenting cone-beam computed tomography (CBCT) scans taken before and after mandibular horizontal guided bone regeneration (GBR) to evaluate hard tissue changes.

Feasibility of occlusal plane in predicting the changes in anteroposterior mandibular position: a comprehensive analysis using deep learning-based three-dimensional models.

BMC oral health
BACKGROUND: A comprehensive analysis of the occlusal plane (OP) inclination in predicting anteroposterior mandibular position (APMP) changes is still lacking. This study aimed to analyse the relationships between inclinations of different OPs and APM...
