Dental Characteristics of Different Types of Cleft and Non-cleft Individuals

ObjectiveThe objective of this study was to compare the novel artificial intelligence (A.I.)-driven lateral cephalometric (Late. Ceph.) analysis of 14 different dental characteristics (DC) among different types of cleft lip and palate (CLP) and non-cleft (NC) individuals.Materials and MethodsA retro...

description ObjectiveThe objective of this study was to compare the novel artificial intelligence (A.I.)-driven lateral cephalometric (Late. Ceph.) analysis of 14 different dental characteristics (DC) among different types of cleft lip and palate (CLP) and non-cleft (NC) individuals.Materials and MethodsA retrospective study was conducted on 123 individuals [31 = NC, 29 = BCLP (bilateral cleft lip and palate), 41 = UCLP (unilateral cleft lip and palate), 9 = UCLA (unilateral cleft lip and alveolus), and 13 = UCL (unilateral cleft lip)] with an average age of 14.77 years. Demographic details were gathered from the clinical records. A novel artificial intelligence-driven Webceph software has been used for the Late. Ceph. analysis. A total of 14 different types of angular and linear DC measurements were analyzed and compared among groups. Two-way ANOVA and multiple-comparison statistics tests were applied to see the differences between gender and among different types of CLP versus NC subjects.ResultsOf the 14 DC tested, no significant gender disparities were found (p > 0.05). In relation to different types of CLP versus NC subjects, 8 over 14 DC were statistically significant (p < 001 to p = 0.03). Six other DC variables show insignificant (p > 0.05) noteworthy alterations in relation to type of CLP.ConclusionBased on the results, type of CLP revealed significantly altered DC compared to NC. Among different types of CLP, BCLP exhibited a maximum alteration in different DC.
