Brief Summary: The study compares the effectiveness of Artificial Intelligence (AI), CBCT, and clinical examination in detecting root canals in upper first, upper second, and lower first molars. Results show AI detects more molars with three or four canals in conventional treatment cases and retreatment cases.
Detailed Description: Introduction: Accurate root canal detection is crucial for successful endodontic treatment, particularly in complex molar cases. Conventional methods, such as clinical examination and cone-beam computed tomography (CBCT), have their limitations, as high radiation exposure. Recent advancements in Artificial Intelligence (AI) have shown promise in improving diagnostic accuracy. This study aims to compare the effectiveness of AI, CBCT, and clinical examination using a dental operating microscope (DOM) in detecting root canals in upper first, upper second, and lower first molars, in both conventional and retreatment cases. Methods: CBCT scans from 210 patients requiring non-surgical root canal therapy or re-treatment were selected. The scans were analyzed using three detection methods: clinical examination via DOM, interpretation by two experienced endodontists using CBCT, and an AI convolutional neural network (CNN) software (Diagnocat). The detected number of root canals was recorded and compared across the three methods.
