Assessment of Artificial Intelligence for Treatment Decision Recommendation of Adult Skeletal Class III Patients

ClinConnect Summary

This clinical trial is studying the use of artificial intelligence (AI) to help make treatment decisions for adults with a specific dental condition called skeletal Class III malocclusion. This condition means that the lower jaw is either too big or the upper jaw is underdeveloped, which can cause problems with how the teeth fit together and affect facial appearance. The researchers want to see if AI can accurately suggest the best treatment options and if these suggestions match what experienced orthodontists would recommend.

To participate in this study, individuals must be adults who have already completed their growth and have skeletal Class III malocclusion, but they should not have any other major health conditions or previous jaw surgeries that could complicate their treatment. Participants will provide their dental records and undergo assessments, and in return, they will help researchers understand how reliable AI can be in guiding orthodontic care. If the trial shows that AI can make accurate recommendations, it could lead to quicker and more standardized treatment options for patients with this condition.
