BACKGROUND: Dental radiology has significantly benefited from cone-beam computed tomography (CBCT) because of its compact size and low radiation exposure. Canal tracking is an important application of CBCT for determining the relationship between the...
BACKGROUND: The inferior alveolar canal (IAC) is a fundamental mandibular structure. It is important to conduct a precise pre-surgical evaluation of the IAC to prevent complications. Recently, the use of artificial intelligence (AI) has demonstrated ...
Surgeons routinely interpret preoperative radiographic images for estimating the shape and position of the tooth prior to performing tooth extraction. In this study, we aimed to predict the difficulty of lower wisdom tooth extraction using only panor...
OBJECTIVE: The aim of this study is to determine the contact relationship and position of impacted mandibular third molar teeth (IMM) with the mandibular canal (MC) in panoramic radiography (PR) images using deep learning (DL) models trained with the...
OBJECTIVE: The mandibular canal (MC) houses the inferior alveolar nerve. Extraction of the mandibular third molar (MM3) is a common dental surgery, often complicated by nerve damage. CBCT is the most effective imaging method to assess the relationshi...

OBJECTIVE: To develop and evaluate a deep learning (DL) system for predicting the contact and relative position relationships between the mandibular third molar (M3) and inferior alveolar canal (IAC) using panoramic radiographs (PRs) for preoperative...
BACKGROUND: Assessing the difficulty of impacted lower third molar (ILTM) surgical extraction is crucial for predicting postoperative complications and estimating procedure duration. The aim of this study was to evaluate the effectiveness of a convol...
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 ...
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...
