The significance of this study lies in its exploration of the usability of these measurements for age determination in CLP patients, providing a novel perspective to the existing literature.Methods: Cone beam computed tomography images of 33 patients (16 females, 17 males) with unilateral CLP aged 14-45 years and 33 age- and sex-matched healthy individuals (16 females, 17 males) were retrospectively evaluated. Using ITK-SNAP software, pulp and whole tooth volumes of canine teeth on the non-defect side of CLP patients and the corresponding side of healthy individuals were measured. Their relationship with chronologic age was evaluated, and comparisons were made between the CLP and control groups.Results: No statistically significant difference was observed between the whole tooth volume, pulp volume, and pulp volume/total tooth-volume ratios of the control and CLP groups. A paired t test comparing chronologic age and calculated mean age of both groups found no significant difference.Conclusions: The results show that the pulp and total tooth-volume ratios of canine teeth in the non-defect areas of individuals with unilateral CLP correlate with chronologic age and can be used reliably for age determination. This indicates that individuals with CLP can be evaluated similarly to healthy individuals, allowing accurate age estimation based on dental measurements.","PeriodicalId":56103,"journal":{"name":"Oral Radiology","volume":" ","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":1.6,"publicationDate":"2025-01-27","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"143054227","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":3,"RegionCategory":"医学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

In the OP environment, OnDemand 3D Dental (Cybermed Inc.) was used on a local terminal, while the RW setup involved a remote workstation-ZIO STATION (Ziosoft Inc.) connected via a 2 Gbps network. Seven experienced dentists processed the same data in both environments, and various processing times, including data transfer, re-slicing, 3D reconstruction, and PACS transfer, were compared.Results: The RW environment showed significantly shorter data transfer and re-slicing times than the OP environment. However, 3D image reconstruction times were similar between the two setups. Overall, processing time was significantly reduced in the RW environment. Variability in processing times among operators was observed, with most achieving reductions in the RW environment.Conclusions: Remote processing of dental CBCT images using a dedicated image processing device offers equivalent or improved performance compared to on-premises processing. This approach can enhance workflow efficiency by reducing processing times and freeing up local resources, although further research is needed to optimize remote display protocols and multi-client access.","PeriodicalId":56103,"journal":{"name":"Oral Radiology","volume":" ","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":1.6,"publicationDate":"2025-01-24","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"143034791","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":3,"RegionCategory":"医学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Then, new radiographs of the teeth were acquired using the Focus X-ray wall-mounted unit (Instrumentarium, Tuusula, Finland) set at 7 mA, 60 kVp, and exposure time of 0.16 s. Three digital systems were used: a photostimulable phosphor plate receptor (Express system) and two complementary metal oxide semiconductor sensors (Digora Toto and SnapShot systems). Five oral and maxillofacial radiologists individually assessed the radiographs. Area under the receiver-operating characteristic curve (AUC), sensitivity, and specificity were calculated from the responses of the examiners and compared using Analysis of Variance at a significance level of 5%.

The sample comprised 30 unilateral cleft patients and 30 sex and age-matched healthy subjects. The CBCT images were imported to the Mimics software in DICOM format. Then, the segmentation process was done in order to create distinct masks for the upper airway, oral cavity, and tongue. The software calculated the volume of the created masks.Results: The volume of tongue, oral and upper airway were significantly lower in cleft patients than in the control group (P value < 0.05 taken as statistically significant). There was a weak but statistically significant correlation between the U.A.W.V and T.V in both cleft and non-cleft subjects. Additionally, there was a statistically significant correlation between the O.C.V and the U.A.W.V in cleft subjects.Conclusions: Except than the proportion of tongue/oral cavity volume, other volumetric measurements were significantly lower in cleft subjects than control group. This reveals that clefts are not necessarily more susceptible to obstructive sleep apnea. Also, the positive correlation between the volume of the tongue and oral cavity with the upper airway confirms that early expansion of the maxillary region in clefts helps significantly in increasing their upper airway volume.","PeriodicalId":56103,"journal":{"name":"Oral Radiology","volume":" ","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":1.6,"publicationDate":"2025-01-16","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"143016967","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":3,"RegionCategory":"医学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Two regions-of-interest (ROI) were selected from mesial and distal surrounding bone of each implant and tooth. Then, the selected ROIs were divided to obtain three sub-ROIs (coronal, middle, and apical) on each side. A total of eight ROIs and sub-ROIs from each implant and control tooth were used for the calculations of fractal dimension (FD), lacunarity, and bone area fraction (BA/TA). The paired-sample t test was used to compare measurements before and 5 years after loading (p = 0.05).Results: Overall evaluation of 77 implants showed that FD decreased at the middle and apical peri-implant bone levels 5 years after loading (p < 0.05). In mandibular implants, BA/TA decreased after loading (p < 0.05). While FD decreased at the coronal level (p = 0.022), lacunarity increased at the middle level of mandibular implants (p < 0.05). In maxillary implants, FD decreased at the middle and BA/TA decreased at the coronal level (p < 0.05). On the other hand, BA/TA increased at the apical level of maxillary implants (p = 0.016) after loading. None of the parameters revealed any difference in the control group (p > 0.05).Conclusions: FD and BA/TA can be used to analyze structural changes in peri-implant bone after prosthodontic loading.

First, RCFs were segmented using 5 different state-of-the-art deep learning models based on convolutional neural networks. Their performances were compared based on the intersection over union (IoU), dice score and accuracy. Additionally, fivefold cross validation was applied for the best-performing model and their outputs were later used for further analysis. Secondly, images were processed via a graphical user interface (GUI) that allows dental clinicians to mark the apex of the tooth, which was used to find the distance between the apex of the tooth and the nearest RCF prediction of the deep learning model towards it. The distance can show whether the RCF is normal, short or long.Results: Model performances were evaluated by well-known evaluation metrics for segmentation such as IoU, Dice score and accuracy.

In the second part the 11-item Dentist Trust Scale was applied. In the third and fourth parts, there were questions about two clinical scenarios, the patients' knowledge of attitudes toward AI, and how the AI-based diagnosis had affected their trust. Evaluation was performed using a Likert-type scale. Data were analyzed with the Chi-square, one-way ANOVA, and ordinal logistic regression tests (p < 0.05).Results: The patients believed that \"AI is useful\" (3.86 ± 1.03) and were not afraid of the use of AI in dentistry (2.40 ± 1.05). Educational level was considerably related to the patients' attitudes to the use of AI for dental diagnostics (p < 0.05). The patients stated that \"dentists are extremely thorough and careful\" (4.39 ± 0.77).Conclusions: The patients displayed a positive attitude to AI-based diagnosis in the dental field and appear to exhibit trust in dentists.
