Purpose: To address the challenges of obtaining accurate digital impressions for the fabrication of fixed restorations on multiple implants in full-arch edentulous cases.
Materials And Methods: An approach to the use of extended design scan bodies (EDSBs) and advanced digital technologies in full-arch implant rehabilitation is presented. Clinical and laboratory treatment sequences are illustrated, focusing on intraoral scanning, restorative materials, and digital fabrication techniques.

Objectives: Digital impressions using intraoral scanners (IOS) are replacing conventional impressions, requiring a learning process. This study compared the learning curves of 29 dentists with no prior IOS experience, randomly assigned to groups: Eagle, Omnicam- AF, and IS-3700.
Methods: After a lecture, participants performed three full scans (maxilla, mandible, and occlusion record) on a phantom and completed a survey about their experience.

Introduction: The accuracy of intra-oral scanners (IOS) has not been thoroughly evaluated across all clinical scenarios, particularly in crown preparations with subgingival margins.
Objectives: This systematic review aims to assess the accuracy of IOS in tooth preparations with subgingival margins and identify factors influencing their performance in these situations.
Methods: A comprehensive literature search was conducted in databases including PubMed, Scopus, Embase, Medline, Google Scholar, and Web of Science for studies published in the last five years.

Background: The Valsalva maneuver is essential in evaluating left ventricular outflow tract (LVOT) obstruction in patients with hypertrophic cardiomyopathy (HCM). Traditionally, a self-directed Valsalva (SDV) maneuver is taught to patients using vague instructions such as "bear down." SDV is often not performed correctly leading to variable results and underestimation of the true provocable LVOT gradient.
