Semantic decomposition Network with Contrastive and Structural Constraints for Dental Plaque Segmentation [PDF]
Segmenting dental plaque from images of medical reagent staining provides valuable information for diagnosis and the determination of follow-up treatment plan. However, accurate dental plaque segmentation is a challenging task that requires identifying teeth and dental plaque subjected to semantic-blur regions (i.e., confused boundaries in border ...

Restoration of human tooth enamel
Human tooth enamel has remarkable properties but lacks self‐repair ability. Existing restorative materials cannot fully replicate enamel's microstructure and function, resulting in low restorative efficiency. This review summarizes the formation process and characteristics of enamel, and current restorative materials and future research directions are ...

Generative Adversarial Networks for Dental Patient Identity Protection in Orthodontic Educational Imaging [PDF]
Objectives: This research introduces a novel area-preserving Generative Adversarial Networks (GAN) inversion technique for effectively de-identifying dental patient images. This innovative method addresses privacy concerns while preserving key dental features, thereby generating valuable resources for dental education and research.

The expertise‐inspired AI pipeline demonstrates significant clinical utility for rapid and precise analysis of dento‐maxillofafcial CBCT and benefits for intelligent oral health management. Abstract Owing to the tooth‐centered nature of most oral diseases, the tooth‐centric radial plane of cone‐beam computed tomography (CBCT) depicts the anatomical and

DArch: Dental Arch Prior-assisted 3D Tooth Instance Segmentation [PDF]
Automatic tooth instance segmentation on 3D dental models is a fundamental task for computer-aided orthodontic treatments. Existing learning-based methods rely heavily on expensive point-wise annotations. To alleviate this problem, we are the first to explore a low-cost annotation way for 3D tooth instance segmentation, i.e., labeling all tooth ...

Abstract Objectives Registration of intra‐oral surface scans to cone beam computer tomography (CBCT) is critical in the digital workflow for static computer‐aided implant surgery (sCAIS). This study aimed to assess the impact of CBCT field of view (FoV) on the precision of digital intra‐oral scan registration.
