摘要

Assessing the likelihood of a tooth’s long-term stability within a patient’s oral cavity, thereby determining its suitability for inclusion in comprehensive rehabilitation, poses a formidable challenge in the field of dentistry [1]. As treatment complexity increases, designing a well-structured and achievable treatment plan becomes increasingly important. Whilst the treatment plan often needs adaptation as treatment progresses, it serves as a useful road map for the stages of treatment. The foundation of robust treatment planning hinges upon accurate diagnosis and prognosis evaluations, particularly when exploring various treatment options [1]. Prognosis, in this context, refers to the predictive estimation of the probable course and outcome of a dental condition, as well as the likelihood of recovery [2]. This prognostic assessment operates on two distinct levels: the patient level and the individual tooth level [1].
