Traditional non-destructive methods of diagnosing pit and fissure caries, such as explorers and radiographs, have limited use in the detection of both early lesions and lesions extending well into dentin.1-3 Furthermore, bacteriological sampling of early dentin lesions provides little reason to believe that we can effectively “seal in” decay when present.4,5 With the emergence of pit and fissur...

Dental Caries are one of the most prevalent chronic diseases around globe. Detecting carious lesions is a challenging task. Conventional computer aided diagnosis and detection methods in past have heavily relied on visual inspection teeth. These only effective large clearly visible caries affected been limited performance due to complex characteristics dental images, which consist hidden or ina...

Deep learning techniques are gradually being utilized in many fields. Healthcare is a field which deep can thrive. The study conducted focuses on using object detection models to detect dental cavities an individual’s mouth. These images taken from camera will be fed live the model discover precise coordinates of caries if it happens exist. Previous studies depict that X-rays were often used fo...
