Dental CLAIRES: Contrastive LAnguage Image REtrieval Search for Dental Research [PDF]
Learning about diagnostic features and related clinical information from dental radiographs is important for dental research. However, the lack of expert-annotated data and convenient search tools poses challenges. Our primary objective is to design a search tool that uses a user's query for oral-related research.

Automatic Recognition of Landmarks on Digital Dental Models [PDF]
Fundamental to improving Dental and Orthodontic treatments is the ability to quantitatively assess and cross-compare their outcomes. Such assessments require calculating distances and angles from 3D coordinates of dental landmarks. The costly and repetitive task of hand-labelling dental models impedes studies requiring large sample size to penetrate ...
