Prompt-Based Caption Generation for Single-Tooth Dental Images Using Vision-Language Models

ArXi:2603.07403v1 Announce Type: new Digital dentistry has made significant advances with the advent of deep learning. However, the majority of these deep learning-based dental image analysis models focus on very specific tasks such as tooth segmentation, tooth detection, cavity detection, and gingivitis classification. There is a lack of a specialized model that has holistic knowledge of teeth and can perform dental image analysis tasks based on that knowledge. Datasets of dental images with captions can help build such a model.
