Intergrated Segmentation and Detection Models for Dentex Challenge 2023 [PDF]
Dental panoramic x-rays are commonly used in dental diagnosing. With the development of deep learning, auto detection of diseases from dental panoramic x-rays can help dentists to diagnose diseases more efficiently.The Dentex Challenge 2023 is a competition for automatic detection of abnormal teeth along with their enumeration ids from dental panoramic

Accurate 3D Prediction of Missing Teeth in Diverse Patterns for Precise Dental Implant Planning [PDF]
In recent years, the demand for dental implants has surged, driven by their high success rates and esthetic advantages. However, accurate prediction of missing teeth for precise digital implant planning remains a challenge due to the intricate nature of dental structures and the variability in tooth loss patterns.

Dental Calculus Stimulates Interleukin-1beta Secretion by Activating NLRP3 Inflammasome in Human and Mouse Phagocytes [PDF]
Dental calculus is a mineralized deposit associated with periodontitis. The bacterial components contained in dental calculus can be recognized by host immune sensors, such as Toll-like receptors (TLRs), and induce transcription of proinflammatory ...

Development of a computer-aided design software for dental splint in orthognathic surgery [PDF]
In the orthognathic surgery, dental splints are important and necessary to help the surgeon reposition the maxilla or mandible. However, the traditional methods of manual design of dental splints are difficult and time-consuming. The research on computer-aided design software for dental splints is rarely reported.
