AI takes on orthodontics: will robots replace manual X-Ray analysis?
NCT ID NCT07315152
First seen Jun 27, 2026 · Last updated Jun 27, 2026
Summary
This study checks if an artificial intelligence (AI) system can analyze dental X-rays as accurately as the standard manual method. About 55 people with crooked teeth or jaw issues will have their X-rays read by both AI and a human expert. The goal is to see if AI can be a reliable tool to help dentists plan treatments.
