Summary

This study checks whether an artificial intelligence (AI) system trained on Turkish patients can accurately diagnose jaw and bite problems in people from other ethnic backgrounds. Researchers will compare the AI's performance on 5,000 patients from Turkey and Belgium using photos and X-rays. The goal is to ensure that AI tools in dentistry are fair and reliable for everyone.
