Dimensional accuracy and
stability of definitive dental models are critical factors in prosthetic
rehabilitation, particularly in partially edentulous patients, where accurate
reproduction of the peripheral seal directly influences the adaptation and
stability of removable prostheses. The aim of the present study was to compare,
under an in vitro experimental design, the dimensional stability of
models obtained using different intraoral scanning systems in Kennedy Class I
and III partially edentulous arches. Reference models were used as the gold
standard and were scanned using the 3Shape TRIOS, MEDIT i700, and Shining 3D
systems, evaluating linear, surface, and volumetric geometric variables.
