Intraoral Scanners for In Vivo 3D Imaging of the Gingiva and the Alveolar Process
Abstract
:1. Introduction
2. Materials and Methods
2.1. Sample
- -
- No extremes of palatal shape and no visible edema in the attached or removable buccal or on the palatal mucosa (visual inspection by two investigators, with disagreements resolved by consensus).
- -
- No extreme malocclusion patterns, no crossbite, and no large asymmetries (visual inspection by two investigators, with disagreements resolved by consensus).
- -
- Participants of European (white) ancestry. This criterion was applied for consistency since this group was over-represented in the place of sample selection.
- -
- Before or more than 2 years after the end of any previous orthodontic treatment.
2.2. Data Acquisition
- 3D scans with CS 3600 (two times)
- 3D scans with TRIOS 3 (two times)
- 3D scan with CS 3600 (one time)
2.3. Assessment of Precision and Agreement between Scanners
2.4. Statistical Analysis
3. Results
4. Discussion
5. Conclusions
