RESUMEN
@#Three-dimensional tooth segmentation is the segmentation of single-tooth models from a digital dental model. It is an important foundation for diagnosis, planning, treatment and customized appliance manufacturing in digital orthodontics. With the deep integration of artificial intelligence technology and big data from stomatology, the use of deep learning algorithms to assist 3D tooth segmentation has gradually become mainstream. This review summarizes the current situation of deep learning algorithms that assist 3D tooth segmentation from the aspects of dataset establishment, algorithm architecture, algorithm performance, innovation and advantages, deficiencies of current research and prospects. The results of the literature review showed that deep learning tooth segmentation methods could obtain an accuracy of more than 95% and had good robustness. However, the segmentation of complex dental models, operation time and richness of the training database still need to be improved. Research and development of the "consumption reduction and strong core" algorithm, establishment of an authoritative data sample base with multiple centers, and expansion of data application depth and breadth will lead to further development in this field.
