Users suggest that this system could improve diagnostic speed and accuracy, implying it could have a meaningful impact on dental practice, though some see it as an incremental improvement rather than transformative.

Abstract in brief

  • The study develops a deep learning system, specifically using Mask R-CNN, to automatically segment and number teeth in bitewing radiographs based on FDI notation, aiming to make dental analysis faster and less labor-intensive for experts.
  • The system accurately segments individual teeth, assigns correct numbers, and achieves high performance metrics, including 100% precision and a 97.49% mean Average Precision (mAP), demonstrating its effectiveness compared to other methods.
  • This approach aids dentists by automating the identification and labeling of teeth in radiographs, improving diagnostic efficiency for detecting issues like caries and restorations that are hard to see directly in the mouth.]
