OralViewer: 3D Demonstration of Dental Surgeries for Patient Education with Oral Cavity Reconstruction from a 2D Panoramic X-ray [PDF]

open access: yesarXiv, 2020
Patient's understanding on forthcoming dental surgeries is required by patient-centered care and helps reduce fear and anxiety. Due to the gap of expertise between patients and dentists, conventional techniques of patient education are usually not effective for explaining surgical steps.

A diffusion model for microleakage in dental restorations

open access: yesDental Materials, 1985
Abstract Microleakage is a significant problem in restorative dentistry. A model based on the principle of diffusion was developed to quantify the process of microleakage. The model required a certain quantity of radiotracer to be placed in the cavity and allowed to diffuse through the microgap that existed around the restoration.

Bayesian Nonparametric Policy Search with Application to Periodontal Recall Intervals [PDF]

open access: yesarXiv, 2018
Tooth loss from periodontal disease is a major public health burden in the United States. Standard clinical practice is to recommend a dental visit every six months; however, this practice is not evidence-based, and poor dental outcomes and increasing dental insurance premiums indicate room for improvement.

Environmental Influence on Dental Morphology [PDF]

open access: yesarXiv, 2013
Development is a complex phenomenon where the forming phenotype interacts with genetic and environmental inputs. Teeth are an important model for developmental studies and their development has been thoroughly investigated. However, despite of a large literature on the genetics of dental development, no studies have focused yet on the environmental ...

Enhanced Pediatric Dental Segmentation Using a Custom SegUNet with VGG19 Backbone on Panoramic Radiographs [PDF]

open access: yesarXiv
Pediatric dental segmentation is critical in dental diagnostics, presenting unique challenges due to variations in dental structures and the lower number of pediatric X-ray images. This study proposes a custom SegUNet model with a VGG19 backbone, designed explicitly for pediatric dental segmentation and applied to the Children's Dental Panoramic ...

Masked Latent Transformer with the Random Masking Ratio to Advance the Diagnosis of Dental Fluorosis [PDF]

open access: yesarXiv
Dental fluorosis is a chronic disease caused by long-term overconsumption of fluoride, which leads to changes in the appearance of tooth enamel. It is an important basis for early non-invasive diagnosis of endemic fluorosis. However, even dental professionals may not be able to accurately distinguish dental fluorosis and its severity based on tooth ...
