Trueness of CAD/CAM digitization with a desktop scanner – an in vitro study

Abstract: BackgroundDesktop scanners are devices for digitization of conventional impressions or gypsum casts by indirect Computer-Aided Design/Computer-Assisted Manufacturing (CAD/CAM) in dentistry. The purpose of this in vitro study was: 1, to investigate whether virtual models produced by the extraoral scanner have the same trueness as sectioned casts; and 2, to assess if digitization with an extraoral scanner influences the surface information.MethodsA polimethyl-methacrilic acid (PMMA) cast and a reference scanner … Show more

“…In fact, we found a significant reduction of all linear parameters in both scanned-milled and scanned-prototyped mock-ups compared to the respective physical mock-ups. This is in agreement with previous studies suggesting that after CAD/CAM digitization the same measurements performed on virtual environment can be reduced [37], probably due to reductive algorithmic computation.…”

“…In the dental world, in fact, a real revolution is in progress, determined by the advent of digital technologies [30]. Intraoral [6,7,14], desktop [31] and face scanners [8], cone beam computed tomography [32] and digital condylographs allow acquiring a huge amount of 3D data useful for patient virtualisation [8]. This easily accessible data [17] can be used by computers for many purposes, not only to perform different CAD modelling Fig.…”

“…The digital revolution has deeply transformed the world of dentistry. The introduction of novel devices such as intraoral [1], desktop [2], and face scanners [3]; computer-assisted design/computerassisted manufacturing (CAD/CAM) software [4]; milling units [5]; and 3D printers [6], together with new materials [7,8], has changed the face of dentistry.…”
