Brief Summary

Aim: This clinical study investigated the effect of the "cut-out-rescan" procedure under rubber dam isolation on restorative scanning trueness of four intraoral scanners. Materials and Methods: The initial scans were collected from 20 patients using 4 dental intraoral scanners (Trios 3, 3Shape; Cerec Primescan, Dentsply Sirona; iTero Element 5D, Align; iTero Lumina, Align). The 3-dimensional data was obtained from the right or left side of the mandibula between the canine-to-2nd molar area and recorded in .stl format. Then the 2nd premolar was cut with the cutting tool in the related scanner software in a range including 1mm from the adjacent teeth. The determined area was clinically isolated with the rubber-dam and the same quadrant was rescanned to let the software overlap with the cut-out area. The overlapped scan was recorded in .stl format as the second scan data. The first and second scan data from the 4 scanners were then transferred to the Oracheck (Dentsply Sirona) software program and digitally overlapped to measure the conformity. The deviations detected in the 1st premolar, 2nd premolar, and 1st molar were selectively and jointly assessed in distance (mm) and volume (mm3) for every scanner data. Robust ANOVA and Kruskal Wallis tests were used for the statistical analyses and the significance level was set at \<.050.

Outcome Measures

Primary Outcomes (9)

• Recording diagnostic 3D- image with Trios 3 intraoral scanner

  The diagnostic (first) 3D images were taken with Trios 3 from the right mandible of the patients. With the camera-containing tip of the intraoral scanner, the 3D image of the patient's right mandible was saved in the scanner's memory and can be examined in 3D in STL format on the computer screen. The scanners record multiple photographs while travelling through the patient's mouth with the camera and automatically combine them with the software to obtain a three-dimensional image.

  Up to 5 days

• Recording diagnostic 3D-image with Primescan intraoral scanner

  The diagnostic (first) 3D images were taken with Primescan from the right mandible of the patients. With the camera-containing tip of the intraoral scanner, the 3D image of the patient's right mandible was saved in the scanner's memory and can be examined in 3D in STL format on the computer screen. The scanners record multiple photographs while travelling through the patient's mouth with the camera and automatically combine them with the software to obtain a three-dimensional image

  up to 5 days

• Recording diagnostic 3D-image with Itero Element 5D intraoral scanner

The scanners record multiple photographs while travelling through the patient's mouth with the camera and automatically combine them with the software to obtain a three-dimensional image.

  up to 5 days

• Recording diagnostic 3D-image with Lumina intraoral scanner

  he diagnostic (first) 3D images were taken with Lumina from the right mandible of the patients.

Recording of the diagnostic 3D images

EXPERIMENTAL

20 patients with adequate oral health who had daily routine appointments for treatment at Marmara University restorative dentistry department were included in the study. Exclusion criteria for the study were missing premolar and molar teeth (except wisdom teeth) or the presence of amalgam and ceramic restorations that could affect the scanning in the right hemi-arc of the mandible. Using of intra oral scanners was performed by a restorative dentist with 5 years of experience. were scanned with 4 different intraoral scanners (IOS) (Trios 3, 3Shape; Primescan, Dentsply; Element 5D, iTero; Lumina, iTero) prior to the procedure, and the obtained digital impressions were stored as a standard tessellation language (STL) file. The digital scan had appropriate anatomic references to enable a proper matching with the digital scan taken after teeth preparation. The official scanning strategy and ambient scanning light conditions in the manufacturer's instructions were followed for all scanners.

Rubberdam Isolation

EXPERIMENTAL

The 2nd premolar, 1st, and 2nd molar teeth were isolated with a rubber dam (medium; Nic Tone, Manufacturera Dental Continental) to be included in the operation field. Clamps were placed on the 2nd premolar and 2nd molar teeth. It was aimed to facilitate the second scanning process by expanding the isolation area to include 3 teeth. A flowable composite was applied by placing Teflon tape on the occlusal surface of the 1st molar to create a difference in its morphology. In the procedure that simulated the final impression process under rubber dam isolation, the relevant tooth was marked on the initial scan along with the contact areas of the adjacent teeth. The marked area which the to be re-scanned, was trimmed away from the virtual casts. The diameter of the mesh holes was controlled by adjusting the settings of the automatic mesh hole generator in the software program of the IOS.

Recording the Final 3D Image

EXPERIMENTAL

Subsequently, the mesh hole area was rescanned starting on the occlusal surface of the second molar, moving toward the occlusal of the first molar to the occlusal of the second premolar, then the buccal surfaces of the second premolar, followed by the first molar and second molar. The rescanning procedures ended with the lingual surfaces of the second molar, followed by the lingual surfaces of the first molar and second premolar. Following the second scan, the area was re-scanned in high-resolution mode, where higher mesh quality could be achieved. The software of the intraoral scanner automatically fused two different data sets obtained by initial/reference and preparation digital scans. Data about tooth positions, morphologies, rubber dam, and surrounding soft tissues was integrated simultaneously. The obtained final scan was exported as an STL file.
