PerioTwin-DeltaCRED: a validation-aware physiological digital twin for longitudinal periodontal treatment response prediction.

Frontiers in physiology · Yadalam PK · 2026-09-11

Researchers developed a digital twin model to predict individual responses to periodontal treatment using baseline patient data, comparing classical machine-learning algorithms with quantum computing approaches. Classical logistic regression performed best at identifying poor responders, though predictive accuracy remained modest; quantum algorithms offered no advantage over traditional methods.
