Abstract
Dental diseases are one of the most common diseases that affect humans. Clinicians employ several techniques for diagnosing and monitoring dental diseases, with intra-oral periapical (IOPA) radiographs being among the most commonly utilized methods. The development of artificial intelligence (AI) technologies for analyzing oral radiographs is being explored across various imaging modalities. However, the limited availability of publicly accessible datasets has been a significant challenge. Although datasets of dental radiographs are available, most of these datasets contain panoramic radiographs with teeth segmentation only. This new data set includes IOPA radiographs with annotations of important landmarks along with tooth segmentation. The dataset includes 1000 images with marked landmarks, along with metadata. Researchers can leverage this resource to create AI solutions for analyzing IOPA radiographs.
期刊介绍:
Scientific Data is an open-access journal focused on data, publishing descriptions of research datasets and articles on data sharing across natural sciences, medicine, engineering, and social sciences. Its goal is to enhance the sharing and reuse of scientific data, encourage broader data sharing, and acknowledge those who share their data.
The journal primarily publishes Data Descriptors, which offer detailed descriptions of research datasets, including data collection methods and technical analyses validating data quality. These descriptors aim to facilitate data reuse rather than testing hypotheses or presenting new interpretations, methods, or in-depth analyses.
