Artificial intelligence-based photographic detection of pink esthetic score attributes using a hybrid deep learning segmentation pipeline: a method development study
This study aimed to develop and internally validate a novel anatomy-driven artificial intelligence (AI) system for automated postoperative Pink Esthetic Score (PES) evaluation from intraoral photographs. Unlike most existing AI approaches, which rely on end-to-end prediction, the proposed pipeline derives PES attributes from anatomically grounded measurements. A hybrid analytical pipeline integrating instance segmentation and rule-based measurement was developed. Tooth crown segmentation was performed using Mask…
A hybrid Mask R-CNN and YOLOv11 segmentation pipeline automated postoperative Pink Esthetic Score attribute assessment from intraoral photographs with over 82% accuracy per attribute and 79.3% total-score agreement within one point of experts.

How to verify without trusting this page
Fetch the canonical text of any version from /api/record/TRV-2026-0626 and hash it yourself — for example shasum -a 256 on the saved canonical field. The result must equal content_hash, and each version’s text ends with prev:followed by the prior version’s hash (version 1 chains to 64 zeros). If a single character of any version had been altered since certification, the chain would not reproduce.
