Dental Panoramic Scan

Introduction The dataset consists of 1488 orthopantomogram (OPG) images collected from a dental clinic in India. The images were taken using a digital OPG machine, which captures a panoramic view of the patient's teeth and jaws. The dataset does not contain any personal information about the patients, as it has been deleted for privacy reasons. Additionally, the data does not have any labels or annotations. Data Collection The OPG images were collected over a period of six months from patients who visited the dental clinic for routine check-ups or specific dental problems. The images were captured using a digital OPG machine that uses X-rays to create a panoramic view of the patient's teeth and jaws. The machine is designed to capture high-quality images with minimal radiation exposure to the patient. Data Preprocessing Before being added to the dataset, each OPG image was checked for quality and clarity. Images that were blurry or had artifacts were removed from the dataset. Additionally, all personal information about the patients was deleted from the images to ensure privacy. Data Description The dataset contains 1488 OPG images in PNG format. Each image has a resolution of 2400 x 1200 pixels and is grayscale. The size of each image ranges from 900 KB to 1.1 MB, depending on its complexity. The OPG images in this dataset show different types of dental problems such as cavities, gum disease, impacted teeth, and fractures. Some images also show normal healthy teeth and jaws.
