Filter by:Objectives: The study aimed to compare the success and reliability of an artificial intelligence application in the detection and classification of submerged teeth in orthopantomography (OPG). Methods: Convolutional neural networks (CNN) algorithms were used to detect and classify submerged molars. The detection module, which is based on the state-of-the-art Faster R-CNN architecture, processed the radiograph to define the boundaries of submerged molars. A separate testing set was used to evaluate the diagnostic performance of the system and compare it to the expert level. Results: The success rate of classification and identification of the system is high when evaluated according to the reference standard. The system was extremely accurate in performance comparison with observers. Conclusions: The performance of the proposed computer-aided diagnosis solution is comparable to that of experts. It is useful to diagnose submerged molars with an artificial intelligence application to prevent errors. Also, it will facilitate pediatric dentists' diagnoses.
