Artificial intelligence assists in dental care and jaw surgery

A dentist inserting a tooth implant must know the exact location of the nerve canal in the patient’s lower jaw to plan the size and position of the implant, along with the overall procedure. This requires X-ray images in which the dentist or radiologist manually specifies the location of the canal point by point. Studying and analyzing these images can be arduous and time-consuming.
