Influence of edentulous areas on the accuracy of the maximum intercuspal position recorded by using different intraoral scanners or an artificial intelligence-based program.

Statement Of Problem: Intraoral scans can be articulated in maximum intercuspal position (MIP) by using an artificial intelligence (AI) based program; however, the impact of edentulous areas on the accuracy of the MIP located using this AI-based program is unknown.

Purpose: The purpose of this in vitro study was to assess the impact of edentulous areas (0, 1, 2, 3, and 4 posterior mandibular teeth) on the accuracy of the MIP located using 3 intraoral scanners (IOSs) and an AI-based program.

Material And Methods: Stone casts articulated in MIP in an articulator were digitized (T710).

Accuracy of Intraoral Scanner Systems for Fabricating Inlay, Onlay, and Veneer Restorations: A Systematic Review and Meta-Analysis.

Purpose: To evaluate the accuracy of intraoral scanners (IOSs) for fabricating inlay, onlay, and veneer restorations.

Materials And Methods: A literature search was completed in five databases: PubMed/Medline, Scopus, Embase, Web of Science, and Cochrane. A manual search was also conducted.

Digital quantification of soft tissue volumetric changes after scaling and root planning.

Background: Monitoring the outcome and evolution of periodontitis treatment requires analyzing changes in the periodontium. However, traditional methods for analyzing volumetric changes in periodontal soft tissues have limitations due to their invasiveness or inaccuracy. The aim of this study was to measure the volumetric changes in periodontal tissues following scaling and root planing treatment using digital methods, such as the superimposition of pre- and post-treatment STL files Material and Methods: The study started with an initial periodontal examination and intraoral scanning.

Influence of scan extension and starting quadrant on the accuracy of four intraoral scanners for fabricating tooth-supported crowns.

Statement Of Problem: Multiple factors can influence the accuracy of intraoral scanners (IOSs). However, the impact of scan extension and starting quadrant on the accuracy of IOSs for fabricating tooth-supported crowns remains uncertain.

Purpose: The purpose of the present in vitro study was to measure the influence of scan extension (half or complete arch scan) and the starting quadrant (same quadrant or contralateral quadrant of the location of the crown preparation) on the accuracy of four IOSs.

Accuracy of maximum intercuspal position located by using four intraoral scanners and an artificial intelligence-based program.

Statement Of Problem: Maxillary and mandibular scans can be articulated in maximum intercuspal position (MIP) by using an artificial intelligence (AI) based program; however, the accuracy of the AI-based program locating the MIP relationship is unknown.

Purpose: The purpose of the present clinical study was to assess the accuracy of the MIP relationship located by using 4 intraoral scanners (IOSs) and an AI-based program.

Material And Methods: Conventional casts of a participant mounted on an articulator in MIP were digitized (T710).
