Selected clinical studies

Comparison of conventional and digital impression approaches for edentulous maxilla: clinical study

Sinem Kahya Karaca & Kıvanc Akca. BMC Oral Health volume. 2024

The expectations for the clinical and laboratory phases of tissue-supported complete dentures (TSCDs) are changing. Currently, there is a trend towards fast, comfortable, reliable, and low-cost methods.

In TSCD impressions, simplified impression and digital impression methods involving the use of an intraoral scanner (IOS) are becoming preferable. Given this situation, this study aims to compare different conventional and digital impression methods used in TSCDs.

ACCESS STUDY

Occlusal adjustment of 3-unit tooth-supported fixed dental prostheses fabricated with complete-digital and -analog workflows: A crossover clinical trial

Karasan et al. Dentistry Journal. 2023
This prospective crossover clinical trial aimed to compare the complete-digital and -analog workflows in terms of occlusal adjustment of 3-unit tooth-supported fixed dental prostheses, operator, and patient preferences.
ACCESS STUDY

A reverse digital workflow by using an interim restoration scan and patient-specific motion with an intraoral scanner

Valenti et al. J Prosthet Dent. 2020
"This digital workflow is a reliable and efficient treatment option, as it improves restoration quality by reducing errors."
ACCESS STUDY

Accuracy and precision of 3 intraoral scanners and accuracy of conventional impressions: A novel in vivo analysis method

Nedelcu et al. J Dent. 2018
"TRIOS had a higher accuracy than OMNIcam. Intraoral scanners can be used as a replacement for conventional impressions."
ACCESS STUDY

Accuracy of crowns based on digital intraoral scanning compared to conventional impression

Haddadi et al. Clin Oral Investig. 2019
"Crowns based on TRIOS show statistically significantly better marginal and internal adaptation before cementation compared to conventional impression."
ACCESS STUDY

Precision of Nine Intra-Oral Digital Scanners and Four Lab Digital Scanners 

Nulty et al. Dentistry Journal. 2021.
Study confirms TRIOS 3 and 4 confirm as accurate as Primescan and statistically more accurate than Omnicam, Runyes and Launca DL206 IOS.
ACCESS STUDY

Three-dimensional differences between intraoral scans and conventional impressions of edentulous jaws: A clinical study

Lo Russo et al. J Prosthet Dent 2019
"Intraoral scans of edentulous jaws are feasible, and their accuracy is not significantly different from that of conventional impressions, either clinically or statistically."
ACCESS STUDY

Trueness and precision of intraoral scanners in the maxillary dental arch: an in vivo analysis

Winkler et al. Sci Rep. 2020
"The overall difference of the median precision measurements between the two scanners was approximately 10 μm (0.0098 mm). However, the lowest precision was detected for TRIOS 3 scans of a specific patient."
ACCESS STUDY

Automated Caries Detection using a 3D Intraoral Scanner. An in Vivo Validation Study

Michou et al. 2021 Scientific Reports
The use of 3D intraoral scanners (IOS) and software that can support automated detection and objective monitoring of oral diseases such as caries, tooth wear or periodontal diseases is increasingly receiving attention from researchers and industry. This study clinically validates an automated caries scoring system for occlusal caries detection and classification, previously developed for an IOS system featuring fluorescence (TRIOS 4, 3Shape TRIOS A/S, Denmark).
