A comprehensive dental dataset of six classes for deep learning based object detection study.

ABSTRACT: This article presents a dental dataset for the improvement of research on deep learning-based detection and classification of dental diseases. The dataset is consisted of 232 panoramic dental radiographs, categorized into six major classes: healthy teeth, caries, impacted teeth, infections, fractured teeth, and broken-down crowns/roots (BDC/BDR). The images were collected from three renowned private clinics in Dhaka, Bangladesh, with the help of an experienced dental practitioner who ensured the confidentiality of patients and high-quality data acquisition using a 64-megapixel Android phone camera. To enhance the value of the dataset for machine and deep learning applications, we applied Contrast-Limited Adaptive Histogram Equalization (CLAHE) for image enhancement and augmented the data.
