A novel artificial neural network for the diagnosis of orofacial pain and temporomandibular disorders.
Abstract
Temporomandibular disorders (TMD) and orofacial pain are highly prevalent. This prevalence can be compared to that of leading non-communicable diseases (NCDs). However, it is surprising to still find a high degree of controversy regarding its diagnosis and management. Patients usually experience treatment delays, missed diagnoses, and receive unnecessary therapies. New artificial intelligence algorithms have helped diagnose numerous diseases. Nevertheless, no studies have focused on the use of artificial intelligence to diagnose these conditions.
