Özet
Early diagnosis of dental caries has become increasingly important in recent years. It reduces irreversible tooth loss, treatment costs and treatment time. However, since the examination of dental caries is carried out visually by experts on radiographic images, the analysis process is quite exhausting for the experts. In addition, visual analysis may miss early-stage caries due to the workload in the clinical environment. In this study, an automatic caries diagnosis system is proposed to support the expert and to reduce the clinical workload by using panoramic images. The proposed DenseNet121-C model, based on deep learning models, generates results with its configured classifier for caries detection. The dataset prepared for the study includes 14498 tooth images automatically cropped from panoramic images. The proposed model achieved the highest performance on the test set with 93.17% accuracy, 89.43 …
