This study aimed to evaluate the accuracy of automated deep learning (DL) algorithm for identifying and classifying various types of dental implant systems (DIS) using a large-scale multicenter dataset. Dental implant radiographs of pos-implant surgery were collected from five college dental hospitals and 10 private dental clinics, and validated by the National Information Society Agency and the Korean Academy of Oral and Maxillofacial Implantology. The dataset contained a total of 156,965 panor

This case report demonstrates an unnecessary endodontic treatment of teeth with florid cemento-osseous dysplasia (FCOD) due to a misdiagnosis as periapical pathosis and emphasizes the importance of correct diagnosis to avoid unnecessary treatment. A 30-year-old woman was referred to our institution for apicoectomies of the mandibular left canine and both the lateral incisors. The periapical lesions associated with these teeth had failed to resolve after root canal treatment over a 3-year period.

The goal of this study was to develop a deep learning-based algorithm to predict temporomandibular joint (TMJ) disc perforation based on the findings of magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) and to validate its performance through comparison with previously reported results. The study objects were obtained by reviewing medical records from January 2005 to June 2018. 299 joints from 289 patients were divided into perforated and non-perforated groups based on the existence of disc perforation confirmed

The size of torus mandibularis provides information about bite force and can thus be used to clinically assess occlusal stress.

Abstract This study measured and analyzed chronological changes in temporomandibular joint space volume by compartment following transoral vertical ramus osteotomy (TOVRO) using reconstructed 3-dimensional (3D) images of patients with mandibular prognathism. It included 70 joints of 35 patients who underwent TOVRO between January 2018 and December 2021. Computed tomography (CT) or cone-beam CT (CBCT) was performed before surgery (T0) and at 3 days (T1), 6 months (T2), and 12 months postoperative

This study examined the effects of general anesthesia on the postoperative pain level after third molar extractions compared to local anesthesia. This retrospective study included patients who underwent four simultaneous third molar extractions under general or local anesthesia and had records of their postoperative pain levels (visual analog scale, VAS). The pain level was determined in the early (Postoperative day; POD < #3) and late (POD #3-7) periods. The operation time and recently modif

We report a case of large radicular cyst progression related to endodontic origin to emphasize proper intervention and follow-up for endodontic pathosis. A 25 yr old man presented with an endodontically treated molar with radiolucency. He denied any intervention because of a lack of discomfort. Five years later, the patient returned. The previous periapical lesion had drastically enlarged and involved two adjacent teeth. Cystic lesion removal and apicoectomy were performed on the tooth. Histopat

AIM: Chondroblastoma is a rare, benign bone tumor that accounts for approximately 1% of all primary bone tumors. Chondroblastoma that occurs at the temporomandibular joint can exhibit symptoms similar to those associated with other temporomandibular disorders. This case study aims to present an eight-year followup of chondroblastoma occurring at the temporomandibular joint. METHODOLOGY: The patient presented swelling in the left temporomandibular joint and trismus. Based oncomputed tomography an

BACKGROUND/AIMS: A relationship between mandibular fractures and traumatic temporomandibular joint (TMJ) conditions has been suggested in many studies. Although magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) is the best option for a TMJ evaluation, few studies have evaluated the TMJ condition after a mandibular fracture using MRI follow-up. The aim of this study was to evaluate the TMJ for post-traumatic conditions following a mandibular fracture using follow-up MRI. MATERIALS AND METHODS: Fourteen TMJs of se
