Background: This study aims to perform a review by selecting, analyzing, and evaluating articles that discuss the accuracy of intraoral scanners (IOSs) in recording post space compared to conventional impression-making techniques.
Methods: The review question framed using the PITR framework (participant, index test, targeted condition, and reference standard) is as follows: What is the dimensional accuracy (T) of impressions made using intraoral scanners (I) for post space (P) compared to impressions made using conventional techniques and digitalized using extraoral scanners (R)? Four electronic databases were searched using pre-set keywords. The guidelines and strategies recommended by PRISMA formed the basis for planning, executing, and documenting this systematic review.
BACKGROUND This study used an edentulous mandibular resin model with 6 parallel osteotomy sites and aimed to compare the accuracy (trueness and precision) of 10 digital impressions using 3 intraoral scanners, the 3Shape TRIOS 5, Medit i700, and Primescan, using Medit Link v3.3.2 software.

Clinical considerations for immediate implant placement have demonstrated long-term success rates comparable to traditional delayed implant protocols. However, it is a sensitive technique that requires proper treatment planning as well as meticulous execution to be predictable and successful in the long term.

- Digital impressions using CAD/CAM technology enhance the fabrication of implant prostheses in dentistry by reducing errors associated with traditional impression techniques.
- This study compared two systems for creating working casts: the Pindex laser removable die system and the Di-Lok plastic tray removable die system, using measurements from intra-oral and extra-oral scans.
- Results indicated that the complete digital workflow with intra-oral scans resulted in more accurate measurements than the partial workflow with extra-oral scans, highlighting the advantages of the Pindex system over the Di-Lok tray system.
