AI may accurately classify dental implant brands and estimate implant angles on panoramic radiographs suggests a new study published in The Journal of Prosthetic Dentistry
Determining the brand and angle of an implant clinically or radiographically can be challenging. Whether artificial intelligence can assist is unclear.
The purpose of the present study was to determine the brand and angle of implants from panoramic radiographs with artificial intelligence.
Panoramic radiographs were used to classify the accuracy of different dental implant brands through deep convolutional neural networks (CNNs) with transfer-learning strategies. The implant classification performance of 5 deep CNN models was evaluated using a total of 11 904 images of 5 different implant types extracted from 2634 radiographs. In addition, the angle of implant images was estimated by calculating the angle of 2634 implant images by applying a regression model based on deep CNN.
RESULTS
Among the 5 deep CNN models, the highest performance was obtained in the Visual Geometry Group (VGG)-19 model with a 98.3% accuracy rate. By applying a fusion approach based on majority voting, the accuracy rate was slightly improved to 98.9%. In addition, the root mean square error value of 2.91 degrees was obtained as a result of the regression model used in the implant angle estimation problem.
Implant images from panoramic radiographs could be classified with a high accuracy, and their angles estimated with a low mean error.
