ABSTRACT

OBJECTIVES:

This study aimed to train a 3D U-Net convolutional neural network (CNN) for mandible and lower dentition segmentation from cone-beam computed tomography (CBCT) scans.

METHODS:

In an ambispective cross-sectional design, CBCT scans from two hospitals (2009-2019 and 2021-2022) constituted an internal dataset and external validation set, respectively. Manual segmentation informed CNN training, and evaluations employed Dice similarity coefficient (DSC) for volumetric accuracy. A blinded oral maxillofacial surgeon performed qualitative grading of CBCT scans and object meshes. Statistical analyses included independent t-tests and ANOVA tests to compare DSC across patient subgroups of gender, race, body mass index (BMI), test dataset used, age, and degree of metal artifact. Tests were powered for a minimum detectable difference in DSC of 0.025, with alpha of 0.05 and power level of 0.8.

RESULTS:

648 CBCT scans from 490 patients were included in the study. The CNN achieved high accuracy (average DSC 0.945 internal, 0.940 external). No DSC differences were observed between test set used, gender, BMI, and race. Significant differences in DSC were identified based on age group and the degree of metal artifact. The majority (80%) of object meshes produced by both manual and automatic segmentation were rated as acceptable or higher quality.

CONCLUSION:

We developed a model for automatic mandible and lower dentition segmentation from CBCT scans in a demographically diverse cohort including a high degree of metal artifacts. The model demonstrated good accuracy on internal and external test sets, with majority acceptable quality from a clinical grader.
