Accuracy of Detection of Dental Caries from Intraoral Images Using Different ArtificiaI Intelligence Models

February 28, 2025 updated by: Sherine Tarek Mohamed Elsayed Khaled, Cairo University

Accuracy of Dental Caries Detection from Intraoral Images Using Different Artificial Intelligence Models Versus Conventional Visual Examination Among a Group of Children: a Diagnostic Accuracy Study

The goal of this observational study is to evaluate the diagnostic accuracy of different deep learning models in detecting dental caries from intra oral images taken by a professional intra oral camera in children. The main question it aims to answer is:

What is the diagnostic accuracy of different deep learning models in detecting dental caries from intra oral images taken by a professional intra oral camera in children compared to the conventional clinical visual examination?
