Trueness and Precision of Two Intraoral Scanners: A Comparative In Vitro Study

الملخص EN

The aim of this study was to evaluate the accuracy of two intraoral scanners used in the dental office.

A molar fixed in a typodont was prepared for a ceramic onlay.

The preparation was scanned using a high-resolution scanner (reference scanner) and saved as stereolithography (STL) format.

The prepared resin molar was scanned again using the intraoral scanners, and all the scans were saved as well in STL format.

All STL files were compared using metrology software (Geomagic Control X).

Overlapping the meshes allowed the assessment of the scans in terms of trueness and precision.

Based on the results of this study, the differences of trueness and precision between the intraoral scanners were minimal.
