Statement Of Problem: Although in vitro studies have investigated the accuracy of virtual interocclusal records, clinical research on their ability to register virtual dental casts accurately is lacking.

Purpose: The purpose of this clinical study was to evaluate the accuracy and reproducibility of the virtual interocclusal records of an intraoral scanning system compared with conventional polyvinyl siloxane (PVS) interocclusal records.

Material And Methods: Three conventional interocclusal records followed by 3 virtual interocclusal records per side per participant were made in 10 participants.

Statement Of Problem: Evidence on the accuracy and reproducibility of the virtual interocclusal registration procedure and recommendations as to how to make a virtual interocclusal record are lacking.

Purpose: The purpose of this in vitro study was to assess whether virtual interocclusal registration records made at different locations around the arch affect the alignment of virtual casts, and to assess whether quadrant and complete arch scans have different effects on cast alignment when they are articulated with virtual interocclusal records.

Material And Methods: Three sites of close proximity (SCPs) and 3 sites of clearance (SCs) were identified in each sextant of mounted zirconia master models.
