This study evaluated ResNet-50 and U-Net models for detecting segmenting vertical misfit in dental implant crowns using periapical radiographic images. Periapical radiographs of were classified by two experts based on the presence (reference group). The area was manually annotated images exhibiting misfit. resulting datasets utilized to train deep learning models. Then, 70% allocated training, while remaining 30% used validation testing. Five general dentists categorized testing as "misfit" or "fit." Inter-rater reliability with Cohen's kappa index performance metrics calculated. average artificial intelligence (AI) compared paired-samples t test. A total 638 collected. values between AI ranged from 0.93 0.98, indicating perfect agreement. model achieved accuracy precision 92.7% 87.5%, respectively, whereas had a mean 93.3% 89.6%. sensitivity specificity 90.3% 93.8%, 90.1% 95.1% dentists. Dice coefficient yielded 88.9% 89.5% among algorithm produced loss 0.01 an 0.98.

Augmented Intelligence in Oral and Maxillofacial Radiology: A Systematic Review

Oral Surgery Oral Medicine Oral Pathology and Oral Radiology, Год журнала: 2025, Номер unknown

Опубликована: Апрель 1, 2025

Artificial intelligence (AI) is transforming diagnostic imaging in dentistry. This systematic review evaluates existing literature on augmented dentomaxillofacial radiology, focusing its influence human collaboration interpreting dental imaging. A search across seven databases and gray was conducted. Studies evaluating clinician performance with AI-assistance were included, while reviews, surveys, case reports excluded. The QUADAS-2 tool assessed the risk of bias. Sixteen studies AI radiographic interpretation. AI-assisted caries detection consistently improved accuracy, sensitivity, specificity. Detection apical pathoses jaw lesion segmentation reducing time. Cephalometric landmark identification showed increased particularly for students. Soft tissue calcification but sensitivity decreased. Overall, enhanced interobserver agreement reduced variability, general dentists students showing greatest gains. Augmented enhances interpretation by improving tasks, less experienced clinicians, positively influences clinical decision-making. However, remains inconsistent challenging cases involving complex or varied conditions. While it complements rather than replaces further validation AI's generalizability reliability using larger, diverse datasets necessary.

Clinical Validation of Deep Learning for Segmentation of Multiple Dental Features in Periapical Radiographs

Bioengineering, Год журнала: 2024, Номер 11(10), С. 1001 - 1001

Опубликована: Окт. 5, 2024

Periapical radiographs are routinely used in dental practice for diagnosis and treatment planning purposes. However, they often suffer from artifacts, distortions, superimpositions, which can lead to potential misinterpretations. Thus, an automated detection system is required overcome these challenges. Artificial intelligence (AI) has been revolutionizing various fields, including medicine dentistry, by facilitating the development of intelligent systems that aid performing complex tasks such as planning. The purpose present study was verify diagnostic performance AI automatic teeth, caries, implants, restorations, fixed prosthesis on periapical radiographs. A dataset comprising 1000 collected 500 adult patients analyzed compared with annotations provided two oral maxillofacial radiologists. strong correlation (R > 0.5) observed between perception observers 1 2 carious teeth (0.7-0.73), implants (0.97-0.98), restored (0.85-0.89), (0.92-0.94), missing (0.82-0.85). comparable radiologists may be useful identification
