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

Conclusion The methodology can be used for assessing accuracy of IOS and IMPR in vivo in up to five units bilaterally from midline. 3M and TRIOS had a higher accuracy than OMNI. IMPR overlapped both groups. Clinical Significance Intraoral scanners can be used as a replacement for conventional impressions when restoring up to ten units without extended edentulous spans.
