The T-Scan system has recently been introduced to the market as a computer-aided device for direct monitoring and documentation of individual occlusal patterns. To receive first assessments of diagnostic relevance of this method, sensitivity and planar resolution capacities of the T-Scan system was tested in an in-vitro study, that showed a lack in the resolution capacity and an excessive variation in sensor sensitivity. Therefore the clinical use of the system is very limited.

The amino acid sequence of the T cell receptor (TCR) varies between T cells of an individual's immune system. Particular TCR residues nearly guarantee mucosal-associated invariant T (MAIT) and natural killer T (NKT) cell transcriptional fates. To define how the TCR sequence affects T cell fates, we analyze the paired αβTCR sequence and transcriptome of 961,531 single cells.

Objective: To compare bite force distributions in corresponding mouth regions between postorthodontic patients who underwent nonextraction and extraction approaches using the T-Scan III system (Tekscan, Inc, Massachusetts, United States).
Materials And Methods: Thirty-six postorthodontic patients were divided into two groups: (1) 18 subjects with the nonextraction treatment and (2) 18 subjects with the extraction of four first-premolar treatments. The measurements were performed using the T-Scan to collect the occlusal bite force at the maximal intercuspal position to generate the bite force in the anterior region (incisors and canines) and posterior region (premolars and molars), the bite force in individual teeth, and the anteroposterior bite force ratio (A-P ratio).

Article Synopsis
- * It details a case where a fractured upper incisor fiber post was removed with a specialized tool and digital guide plate, followed by root canal retreatment.
- * Finally, the restoration involved CAD/CAM fiber post-core integration and a zirconia crown, with occlusion testing utilizing the T-Scan Ⅲ system, providing valuable insights into repairing broken fiber posts.

Background: This case report highlights the importance of standardized and fully digital sequential treatment in complex occlusal rehabilitation cases. To fully resolve the patient's dental needs, such cases often require multidisciplinary interventions including periodontal therapy, endodontic treatment, anterior esthetics, implant restoration, and prosthetic rehabilitation. A fully digital workflow (including facial scanners, intraoral scanners, jaw motion tracking systems, virtual articulators, and computer-aided design software) streamlined the complex treatment, enhancing workflow simplicity, efficiency, visibility, and precision.

Introduction: Dental occlusion refers to the static and dynamic relationships that are established between the teeth of the two arches and is an important factor in the homeostasis of the dento-maxillary system. The objective of the present study was to compare two digital occlusal analysis systems: the T-Scan III system and the Medit I600 intraoral scanner.
Materials And Methods: The study was carried out on 20 students from the Faculty of Dental Medicine Craiova, whose dental occlusion was assessed with the T-Scan III system and with the Medit I600 intraoral scanner.
