Artificial Intelligence Versus Conventional Digital Design for Fixed Dental Prosthesis

NCT07432165

This in vitro study aims to evaluate the accuracy of an Artificial Intelligence (AI)-based automatic design system for fixed dental prosthesis (FDP) compared with conventional computer-aided design (CAD) software. Digital scans of teeth requiring fixed dental prosthesis will be collected and used to generate prosthetic designs using two approaches: human-designed CAD restorations and AI-generated restorations. The primary outcome is design accuracy assessed using 3D superimposition and Intersection over Union (IOU) percentage. Secondary outcomes include margin detection performance measured using F1 score, precision, and recall. A total sample size of 438 scans will be analyzed. The study will determine whether AI-generated prosthesis designs demonstrate comparable accuracy to conventional digital designs.
