Obturation Quality

This study aims to develop and evaluate an artificial intelligence (AI)-based system that can automatically assess the quality of root canal fillings using dental X-ray images. The AI system will analyze important features of the filling, including its length, uniformity, and shape, and classify the treatment quality as acceptable or needing improvement. The study will use previously collected, anonymized dental X-ray images of teeth that have received root canal treatment. Experienced dental specialists will evaluate these images to provide a reference standard, which will be compared with the AI system's results. The goal of this research is to determine whether AI can provide a reliable and consistent method for evaluating root canal treatment outcomes. In the future, such technology may help dentists make more accurate decisions, improve treatment evaluation, and contribute to better patient care.

The aim of this study is to develop and evaluate an artificial intelligence-based model capable of analyzing periapical radiographs of maxillary and mandibular molars to predict the difficulty level of non-surgical root canal retreatment. By integrating deep learning techniques with routinely acquired periapical radiographs, this study aims to enhance diagnostic support, improve clinical decision-making, and facilitate appropriate case selection or referral in endodontic practice.
