Hakan T\u00fcrkkahraman conducts research in orthodontics, the branch of dentistry focused on correcting tooth and jaw alignment. A major focus is applying artificial intelligence and deep learning to dental imaging\u2014for example, analyzing X-rays and 3D scans to predict growth, plan treatment, and decide between tooth extraction options\u2014alongside studies of clear aligners and the biology of periodontal (gum and bone) tissues.

Collaborators per year
Distinct co-authors at Indiana University each year — a rough indication of whether the group around this researcher has been growing or contracting. An estimate from co-authorship, not a roster: collaborators are not necessarily lab members, and recent years can be under-counted while indexing catches up.
