Predicting Tooth Surface Loss Using Genetic Algorithms-Optimized Artificial Neural Networks

Our aim was to predict tooth surface loss in individuals without the need to conduct clinical examinations. Artificial neural networks (ANNs) were used to construct a mathematical model. Input data consisted of age, smoker status, type of tooth brush, brushing, and consumption of pickled food, fizzy...
