Background The anatomical relationship between the maxillary sinus and maxillary molars is critical for planning dental procedures such as tooth extraction, implant placement and periodontal surgery. Methods This study presents a novel artificial intelligence-based approach for the detection and classification of these anatomical relationships in cone beam computed tomography (CBCT) images. The model, developed using advanced image recognition technology, can automatically detect the relationship between the maxillary sinus and adjacent molars with high accuracy. Results The artificial intelligence algorithm used in our study provided faster and more consistent results compared to traditional manual evaluations, reaching 89% accuracy in the classification of anatomical structures....
