| Summary: | Abstract Fenestration and dehiscence (FD) pose significant challenges in dental treatments as they adversely affect oral health. Although cone-beam computed tomography (CBCT) provides precise diagnostics, its extensive time requirements and radiation exposure limit its routine use for monitoring. Currently, there is no public dataset that combines intraoral photographs and corresponding CBCT images; this limits the development of deep learning algorithms for the automated detection of FD and other potential diseases. In this paper, we present FDTooth, a dataset that includes both intraoral photographs and CBCT images of 241 patients aged between 9 and 55 years. FDTooth contains 1,800 precise bounding boxes annotated on intraoral photographs, with gold-standard ground truth extracted from CBCT. We developed a baseline model for automated FD detection in intraoral photographs. The developed dataset and model can serve as valuable resources for research on interdisciplinary dental diagnostics, offering clinicians a non-invasive, efficient method for early FD screening without invasive procedures. |
