Artificial Intelligence-Based Detection and Numbering of Dental Implants on Panoramic Radiographs.

Objectives: This study aimed to develop an artificial intelligence (AI)-based deep learning model for the detection and numbering of dental implants in panoramic radiographs. The novelty of this model lies in its ability to both detect and number implants, offering improvements in clinical decision support for dental implantology.

Materials And Methods: A retrospective dataset of 32 585 panoramic radiographs, collected from patients at Sivas Cumhuriyet University between 2014 and 2024, was utilized.

Incidence of caries and pathological findings in different positions of impacted third molars: A retrospective analysis.

Objectives: Impacted third molars(3 M), commonly known as wisdom teeth, are prone to caries and pathological formations depending on their position in the jaw. This study aimed to determine and compare the incidence of caries, pathological formations, and the superposition of the roots of the mandibular impacted third molar over the mandibular canal in different positions of impacted 3Ms.

Meterials And Methods: This retrospective study was conducted on orthopantomographs of patients who presented with 3 M complaints at the Tokat Gaziosmanpaşa University Oral and Maxillofacial Surgery Department between 2019 and 2023.
