AI Article Synopsis
- The study examines how the translucency of core buildup composite resins influences the accuracy of 3D images produced by an intraoral scanner (IOS) during dental procedures.
- The experiment involved scanning a 3D-printed model with different translucency levels of composite resins and comparing the results with high-accuracy industrial scans.
- Results indicated that higher translucency in composite resins led to greater inaccuracies in optical impressions, suggesting that dental practitioners must consider both the optical and mechanical properties of materials for better fitting CAD/CAM prostheses.
Article Abstract
Aim: The accuracy of 3D images produced by an intraoral scanner (IOS) is affected by the optical characteristics of restorative materials such as metal, ceramic, and composite resin. The present in vitro study aimed to investigate the impact of core buildup composite resin translucency on IOS accuracy.
Materials And Methods: A core buildup procedure was performed on a proprietary 3D-printed model using injectable composite resins in four groups with different levels of translucency (highest to lowest: AE, A3, AO3, and EX). Ten experimental scans per group were performed using a Medit i700 IOS on a phantom head-mounted model. Reference scans were obtained using an industrial scanner (Solutionix C500). Values of accuracy (trueness and precision) for the respective groups were evaluated using mean deviation values following 3D superimposition.
Results: Composite resin translucency caused the scale reduction of the optical impressions. Values of trueness showed the highest scale reduction in AE, significantly, followed by A3, AO3, and EX. Considering 50 μm as the cut-off value of deviations for clinical acceptability, the analysis showed most deviations in AE and A3. Similar results were found with precision, where AE showed the highest deviation value statistically, followed by A3, AO3, and EX.
Conclusions: Composite resin translucency affects the accuracy of optical impressions, causing a fitting error of CAD/CAM prostheses. The more translucent the composite resin, the less accurate the optical impression. This suggests the need for proper compensation during prosthesis designing for an optimal clinical result. In addition, practitioners should indicate in the digital workflow the proper restorative materials regarding not only the mechanical properties and esthetics, but also the optical characteristics.

Conductive hydrogels have emerged as excellent candidates for the design and construction of flexible wearable sensors and have attracted great attention in the field of wearable sensors. However, there are still serious challenges to integrating high stretchability, self-healing, self-adhesion, excellent sensing properties, and good biocompatibility into hydrogel wearable devices through easy and green strategies. In this paper, multifunctional conductive hydrogels (PCGB) with good biocompatibility, high tensile (1694 % strain), self-adhesive, and self-healing properties were fabricated by incorporating boric acid (BA) and glucose (Glu) simultaneously into polyacrylic acid (PAA) and chitosan (CS) polymer networks using a simple one-pot polymerization method.
