Evaluating the influence of palate scanning on the accuracy of complete-arch digital impressions-An in vitro study.

Objectives: To assess the impact of including the palate and the number of images recorded during intraoral digital scanning procedure on the accuracy of complete arch scans.

Methods: An experienced operator conducted 40 digital scans of a 3D printed maxillary model and divided them into two groups: 20 with inclusion of the palate (PAL) and 20 without (NPAL). Each set of scans was performed using an intraoral scanner (IOS) (Trios 5; 3Shape A/S; Copenhagen, Denmark).

The effect of generation change on the accuracy of full arch digital impressions.

Purpose: This study is aimed to evaluate the effect of generation change on accuracy of IOSs on full-arch scans and the inter-operator reliability.

Methods: In this study, 6 different IOS were tested: 3Shape Trios 3 (20.1.

The impact of software updates on accuracy of intraoral scanners.

Background: Digital workflow is showing an increasing tendency in everyday dentistry. Accuracy is essential during digital dental workflows for all indication areas. The present study aimed to evaluate the effect of software updates on the accuracy of intraoral scanner (IOS) devices.
