    BackgroundPanoramic radiography (PR) is available to determine the contact relationship between maxillary molar teeth (MMT) and the maxillary sinus floor (MSF). However, as PRs do not provide clear and detailed anatomical information, advanced imaging methods can be used.AimThe aim of this study was to evaluate the diagnostic performance of deep learning (DL) applications that assess the relationship of the MSF to the first maxillary molar teeth (fMMT) and second maxillary molar teeth (sMMT) on PRs with data confirmed by cone beam computed tomography (CBCT).MethodsA total of 2162 fMMT and sMMT were included in this retrospective study. The contact relationship of teeth with MSF was compared among DL methods.ResultsDL methods, such as GoogLeNet, VGG16, VGG19, DarkNet19, and DarkNet53, were used to evaluate the contact relationship between MMT and MSF, and 85.89% accuracy was achieved by majority voting. In addition, 88.72%, 81.19%, 89.39%, and 83.14% accuracy rates were obtained in right fMMT, right sMMT, left fMMT, and left sMMT, respectively.ConclusionDL models showed high accuracy values in detecting the relationship of fMMT and sMMT with MSF.Copyright © 2024 Copyright: © 2024 Nigerian Journal of Clinical Practice.
