Year: 2018
Type: conference-paper
Abstract: The use of electronic dental records (EDR) has grown rapidly over the past decade, but the development of methods to use EDR data for research and quality improvement is still \nin its infancy. In this study, we are investigating the feasibility of reusing semantically structured EDR data for research purposes. Our two use cases are to assess (1) longevity of posterior composite restorations (PCR) and (2) tooth loss following root canal treatment (RCT).
