Fig. 4From: Accurate gingival segmentation from 3D images with artificial intelligence: an animal pilot studyThe difference between virtual and clinical probing results of buccal and lingual sides. A The correlation and regression results of virtual and clinical measurements of buccal probing sites. B The exact difference in probing depth between virtual and clinical measurements of buccal probing sites. C The correlation and regression results of virtual and clinical measurements of lingual probing sites. D The exact difference of the probing depth between virtual and clinical measurements of lingual probing sites. E The comparison between buccal and lingual sites for the exact difference in the probing depth between virtual and clinical measurements. The Mann–Whitney U test was used. N = 56 for buccal sites, N = 52 for lingual sites. Green dotted lines: the levels of − 0.20 mm and 0.20 mm; yellow dash-dotted lines: the levels of − 0.50 mm and 0.50 mm; black dashed lines: the levels of − 0.60 mm and 0.60 mm. The box plot represents the 5th percentile, 25th percentile, median (50th percentile, solid red line), 75th percentile, 95th percentile, and mean (black cross), respectivelyBack to article page
