Background and Aim: Artificial intelligence (AI) offers a promising approach for stratifying risk and forecasting outcomes. This study evaluated the efficacy of an AI-based system in predicting dental trauma risk and assessing the long-term prognosis of traumatized teeth.
Materials and Methods: A prospective observational study was conducted on 138 participants aged 10–50 years. Data on malocclusion severity, sports participation, and age were integrated into an AI system. The model stratified participants into low, moderate, and high-risk categories for dental trauma, and predicted long-term outcomes for traumatized teeth based on treatment modalities. Model performance was validated using sensitivity, specificity, and area under the receiver operating characteristic curve (AUROC) metrics. Prognostic evaluations were compared across endodontic therapy, splinting, and extraction using Kaplan-Meier survival analysis.
Results: The AI model demonstrated high sensitivity (92%) and specificity (90%) in predicting trauma risk, with an AUROC of 0.92. Severe malocclusion significantly increased trauma risk [odds ratio (OR): 3.1; 95% confidence interval (CI): 1.8–5.3; P<0.01]. Sports participation was associated with a 2.7-fold increased risk (OR: 2.7; 95% CI: 1.5–4.8; P<0.01). Prognostic assessments revealed that endodontic therapy had the highest survival probability (12-month survival >85%), followed by splinting (~70%) and extraction (<60%). Kaplan-Meier survival analysis showed significantly better outcomes for endodontic therapy compared to splinting and extraction (P<0.01).
Conclusion: The AI system effectively predicted trauma risk and prognosis, demonstrating its potential as a clinical tool for dental trauma management. Integrating AI into routine practice can improve preventive strategies and guide treatment planning, enhancing patient outcomes
