Deep learning based prediction of extraction difficulty for mandibular third molars

Abstract: This paper proposes a convolutional neural network (CNN)-based deep learning model for predicting the difficulty of extracting a mandibular third molar using a panoramic radiographic image. The applied dataset includes a total of 1053 mandibular third molars from 600 preoperative panoramic radiographic images. The extraction difficulty was evaluated based on the consensus of three human observers using the Pederson difficulty score (PDS). The classification model used a ResNet-34 pretrained on the ImageNet dat… Show more

“…253 preoperative PR(s) of patients who underwent third molar removal were retrospectively selected from the Department of Oral and Maxillofacial Surgery of Radboud University Nijmegen Medical Centre, Netherlands (mean age of 31.7 years, standard deviation of 12.7, age range of 16–80 years, 140 males and 113 females) 6 . The accumulated PR(s) were acquired with a Cranex Novus e device (Soredex, Helsinki, Finland), operated at 90 kV and 10 mA, using a CCD sensor.…”

“…Taking the numerous interactions between all those factors into account, it might be challenging to make the correct decision during an average presurgical consultation. An automated decision-making tool for third molar removal may have the potential to aid patients and surgeon to make the right choice 6 . The detection of pathologies associated with third molars on PR is the first step in the automation of M3 removal diagnostics.…”

“…Few studies have used deep learning to classify the position of the mandibular third molar. Yoo et al [22] performed class, position, and Winter's classi cations of the mandibular third molar. The observed accuracy was 78.1% for class, 82.0% for position, and 90.2% for Winter's classi cation.…”

“…They are being applied in a variety of dental and maxillofacial fields. For instance, they are used to assess soft-tissue profiling and extraction difficulty for mandibular third molars [18,19]. In addition, Xiao et al proposed an end-to-end deep-learning framework to estimate patientspecific reference bony shape models for patients with orthognathic deformities [20].…”
