OBJECTIVES: To investigate the current clinical applications and diagnostic performance of artificial intelligence (AI) in dental and maxillofacial radiology (DMFR).
We propose using faster regions with convolutional neural network features (faster R-CNN) in the TensorFlow tool package to detect and number teeth in dental periapical films. To improve detection precisions, we propose three post-processing techniqu...
PURPOSE: In recent years, health risks concerning high-dose x-ray radiation have become a major concern in dental computed tomography (CT) examinations. Therefore, adopting low-dose computed tomography (LDCT) technology has become a major focus in th...

In this paper, we present a novel approach for 3D dental model segmentation via deep Convolutional Neural Networks (CNNs). Traditional geometry-based methods tend to receive undesirable results due to the complex appearance of human teeth (e.g., miss...
Dental records play an important role in forensic identification. To this end, postmortem dental findings and teeth conditions are recorded in a dental chart and compared with those of antemortem records. However, most dentists are inexperienced at r...

OBJECTIVE: This study aimed to compare the quality and readability of the responses generated by 3 publicly available artificial intelligence (AI) chatbots in answering frequently asked questions (FAQs) related to Oral and Maxillofacial Radiology (OM...
PURPOSE: Numerous studies have investigated the use of convolutional neural network (CNN) models for detecting periapical lesions(PLs). However, limited research has focused on evaluating their potential in assisting clinicians with diagnosis. This s...
BACKGROUND: Carotid artery calcifications are important markers of cardiovascular health, often associated with atherosclerosis and a higher risk of stroke. Recent research shows that dental radiographs can help identify these calcifications, allowin...
