Objective: A method for 3D-data acquisition of partially edentulous cast was introduced to lay the foundation for reconstructing 3D digital model of a partially edentulous cast and studying computer aided design (CAD) to a removable partial denture framework.
Methods: Using projection system controlled by a computer, four frames of sinusoidal fringe pattern at pi/2 intervals were projected onto the surface of partially edentulous cast consecutively within 0.4 second. Deformed fringe patterns modulated by the surface height of the cast were recorded by a digital camera. The phase value with the height information was demodulated with phase-shifting method. The transition from the unwrapped phase to the height of the points on the cast was performed with triangulation method. The multiview 3D data was integrated automatically to obtain the complete 3D profile data and the 3D digital model of the partially edentulous cast was reconstructed.
Results: Dense and complete points-cloud data was achieved without scanning blind zone basically. The anatomic structure of reconstructed 3D digital model was sharp and clear.
Conclusion: As an alternative for acquiring 3D data of partially edentulous cast, this method presented here with high precision and high speed meets the need for the subsequent 3D design to removable partial denture framework.

Department of Medicine, Surgery and Dentistry, University of Salerno, Via S. Allende, 84081 Salerno, Italy.
This systematic review evaluated concomitant trends in microbial (total biofilm load and pre-dominant pathogens' counts) and clinical, radiographic, and crevicular variations following (any) peri-implantitis treatment in partially vs. totally edentulous, systemically healthy, non-smoking adults and compared them to peri-implant mucositis treated sites. The study protocol, compliant with the PRISMA statement, was registered on PROSPERO (CRD42024514521).

Purpose: To evaluate whether there are clinical benefits by preparing dental implant sites using piezosurgery instead of conventional rotary drills in healed bone crests and if initial crestal soft tissue thickness could have an impact on marginal bone loss.
Methods: Twenty-five partially edentulous patients requiring two single implants in molar/premolar areas had each site randomly allocated to either piezosurgery or to conventional rotary drill preparation according to a split-mouth design. Definitive screw-retained metal-ceramic crowns were delivered after 6 months.

Objectives: Dental health is integral to overall well-being, with early detection of issues critical for prevention. This research work focuses on utilizing artificial intelligence and deep learning-based object detection techniques for automated detection of common dental issues in orthopantomography x-ray images, including broken roots, periodontally compromised teeth, and the Kennedy classification of partially edentulous arches.
Methods: An orthopantomography dataset has been used to train several models employing various object detection architectures, hyperparameters, and training techniques.

Statement Of Problem: Several systematic reviews have compared the accuracy of conventional impression making and digital recording techniques, with sometimes different results. A systematic overview of these studies is lacking.
Purpose: The purpose of this overview of systematic reviews was to examine the accuracy of digital scans and conventional impressions for tooth- or implant-supported fixed restorations in partially and completely edentulous adult patients.
