This study presents an automated Steiner

Area of Science:

Orthodontics and Dental Imaging
Artificial Intelligence in Healthcare

Background:

Cephalometric analysis, particularly Steiner's analysis, is crucial for orthodontic diagnosis.
Manual landmark identification in cephalometrics is labor-intensive and susceptible to human error.

Purpose of the Study:

To develop an automated software tool for performing Steiner's cephalometric analysis.
To enhance the efficiency and reliability of orthodontic diagnostic procedures.

Main Methods:

Developed a Python-based software utilizing Tkinter for the graphical user interface (GUI).
Integrated Pillow for image processing and machine learning (ML) for automated landmark identification and refinement.
Implemented ML for fail-safe error correction and retraining capabilities.

Keywords:
