TL;DR
AI can accurately and quickly track tooth movement during orthodontic treatment, improving efficiency and reliability compared to manual methods.
Contribution
An AI system for automated orthodontic monitoring with high precision and speed, validated by orthodontists.
Findings
AI achieved 92% precision with a 0.25 mm error margin in tracking tooth movement.
AI analysis was significantly faster than manual methods, taking only 3 seconds per image set.
Orthodontists rated AI reliability highly and preferred AI-assisted monitoring over manual assessments.
Abstract
Artificial intelligence (AI) driven automated image analysis accurately tracks orthodontic tooth movement by reducing reliance on time-consuming manual assessments. AI achieved 92% precision with a 0.25 mm error margin and a strong correlation (r = 0.94, p < 0.001) to manual measurements in a study of 100 patients. AI analysis took 3 seconds per image set, significantly faster than the 7-minute manual process (p < 0.001). Orthodontists rated AI reliability at 4.7/5, with 86% preferring AI-assisted monitoring. Thus, AI enhances treatment efficiency, standardization, and clinical decision-making.
