Shape measurements are crucial for evolutionary and developmental biology; however, they present difficulties in the objective and automatic quantification of arbitrary shapes. Conventional approaches are based on anatomically prominent landmarks, wh...
Accurate mandibular canal (MC) detection is crucial to avoid nerve injury during surgical procedures. Moreover, the anatomic complexity of the interforaminal region requires a precise delineation of anatomical variations such as the anterior loop (AL...

PURPOSE: Surgical guide plates can improve the accuracy of surgery, although their design process is complex and time-consuming. This study aimed to use artificial intelligence (AI) to design standardized mandibular angle ostectomy guide plates and r...
Being one of the oldest en most frequently performed invasive procedures; the lack of scientific progress of tooth removal procedures is impressive. This has most likely to do with technical limitations in measuring different aspects of these keyhole...
OBJECTIVES: Lingual mandibular bone depression (LMBD) is a developmental bony defect in the lingual aspect of the mandible that does not require any surgical treatment. It is sometimes confused with a cyst or another radiolucent pathologic lesion on ...
BACKGROUND: Gingival phenotype plays an important role in dental diagnosis and treatment planning. Traditionally, determining the gingival phenotype is done by manual probing of the gingival soft tissues, an invasive and time-consuming procedure. Thi...

Many studies in the last decades have correlated mandible bone structure with systemic diseases like osteoporosis. Mandible segmentation, as well as segmentation of other oral structures, is an essential step in studies that correlate oral structures...
BACKGROUND: It is difficult for orthodontists to accurately predict the growth trend of the mandible in children with anterior crossbite. This study aims to develop a deep learning model to automatically predict the mandibular growth result into norm...
