Resumen
Purpose: To develop a machine learning model that can predict dental implant failure and peri-implantitis as a tool for maximizing implant success.
Materials and Methods: This study used a supervised learning model to retrospectively analyze 398 unique patients receiving a total of 942 dental implants presenting at the Philadelphia Veterans Affairs Medical Center from 2006 to 2013. Logistic regression, random forest classifiers, support vector machines, and ensemble techniques were employed to analyze this dataset.
Results: The random forest model possessed the highest predictive performance on test sets, with receiver operating characteristic area under curves (ROC AUC) of 0.872 and 0.840 for dental implant failures and peri-implantitis, respectively. The five most important features correlating with implant failure were amount of local anesthetic, implant length, implant diameter, use of preoperative antibiotics, and frequency of hygiene visits. The five most important features correlating with peri-implantitis were implant length, implant diameter, use of preoperative antibiotics, frequency of hygiene visits, and presence of diabetes mellitus.
Conclusion: This study demonstrated the ability of machine learning models to assess demographics, medical history, and surgical plans, as well as the influence of these factors on dental implant failure and peri-implantitis. This model may serve as a resource for clinicians in the treatment of dental implants.
