Deep learning method to automatically diagnose periodontal bone loss and periodontitis stage in dental panoramic radiograph

Artificial intelligence (AI) could be used as an automatically diagnosis method for dental disease due to its accuracy and efficiency. This research proposed a novel convolutional neural network (CNN)-based deep learning (DL) ensemble model for tooth position detection, tooth outline segmentation, tooth tissue segmentation, periodontal bone loss and periodontitis stage prediction using dental panoramic radiographs.
