Objectives: To investigate the trueness of intraoral photogrammetry (IPG) technology for complete-arch implant digital impression and evaluate the effect of implant number. Material and Methods: All data were fully anonymized in compliance with ethical standards, and a total of 30 complete-arch patient models with 4 (n = 13), 5 (n = 9), or 6 (n = 8) implants were selected from the archive. Digital impressions w...
Objective: To assess the impact of horizontal intraoral scan bodies (H-ISBs) on the trueness of complete-arch digital impressions compared to vertical ISBs (V-ISBs). To evaluate trueness among four intraoral scanners (IOS) and inter-operator variability across different ISB × IOS combinations. Materials and Methods: Digital impressions were made from a dental cast with four multi-unit analogs using four H-ISBs:...
Statement of problem: The absence of fixed reference points can affect the trueness of complete-arch intraoral digital implant scans. The effect of splinting intraoral scan bodies (ISBs) or the inclusion of artificial landmarks (AL) on the trueness of complete-arch digital implant scans is still unclear. Purpose: The purpose of this study was to analyze the effect of splinting ISBs or the inclusion of AL on the...

No. of bitstreams: 0 Previous issue date: 2020-01-01; Statement of problem: Consumption of some beverages and aging may affect the color of dental materials used in fixed prosthodontics, but their effect on recently introduced materials is not well known. Purpose: The purpose of this in vitro study was to evaluate staining, aging, and the exposure interval...

No. of bitstreams: 0 Previous issue date: 2021-03-01; Objectives: To evaluate different intervals of exposure to staining solutions and artificial aging on translucency parameter (TP00) of CAD-CAM materials. Material and Methods: One millimeter thick square-shaped specimens (N = 288) were cut from Cerasmart (CS), IPS e.max OE), Lava Ultimate (LU), Shofu HC...
