Abstract

Purpose: To evaluate the accuracy, working time, and patient satisfaction of digital impressions (DI) vs conventional impressions (CI) taken for removable prostheses on edentulous arches.

Materials and methods: A systematic search of the literature was conducted in electronic databases. The English language was filtered with no limitation on publication date. The search was performed up to June 2022. Only in vivo studies comparing DI and CI techniques for the fabrication of complete removable prostheses were included. The primary outcome was accuracy (in terms of trueness and precision), working time (scanning time), and patient satisfaction of DI procedures.

Results: After title and abstract screening, six articles were considered eligible for inclusion. All articles investigated the trueness of DI, while no study evaluated the accuracy in terms of precision. The discrepancies between DI and CI were primarily in the peripheral areas. Only one article focused on the working time for scanning procedures. Patient satisfaction was surveyed in just one study. Lack of standardization of the CI procedures and sample size collection were observed in all studies.

Conclusions: The scientific evidence so far collected on IOS for complete edentulous arches is not exhaustive, in particular when dealing with scanning time and patient satisfaction. Regarding accuracy, digital scanning in edentulous patients seems to be a predictable procedure within the limits of the attached mucosa.

无牙患者的数字印象:临床证据的系统回顾。

目的:评价数字印模(DI)与传统印模(CI)在无牙弓可移动义齿上的准确性、工作时间和患者满意度。材料与方法:在电子数据库中系统检索相关文献。对英文进行了过滤，对出版日期没有限制。搜寻工作一直持续到2022年6月。仅包括比较DI和CI技术用于制造完整可移动假体的体内研究。主要观察指标为准确性(正确率和精密度)、工作时间(扫描时间)和患者对DI手术的满意度。结果:经过标题和摘要筛选，6篇文章被认为符合纳入条件。所有的文章都调查了DI的真实性，而没有研究在精密度方面评估准确性。DI和CI之间的差异主要在周围区域。只有一篇文章关注扫描程序的工作时间。只有一项研究调查了患者满意度。在所有研究中都观察到CI程序和样本量收集缺乏标准化。结论:目前收集到的关于全无牙弓的IOS的科学证据并不详尽，特别是在扫描时间和患者满意度方面。关于准确性，无牙患者的数字扫描似乎是一个可预测的程序，在附着的粘膜的限制。

期刊介绍： Official Journal of the European Association for Osseointegration (EAO), the International College of Prosthodontists (ICP), the German Society of Prosthodontics and Dental Materials Science (DGPro), and the Italian Academy of Prosthetic Dentistry (AIOP) Prosthodontics demands a clinical research emphasis on patient- and dentist-mediated concerns in the management of oral rehabilitation needs. It is about making and implementing the best clinical decisions to enhance patients'' quality of life via applied biologic architecture - a role that far exceeds that of traditional prosthetic dentistry, with its emphasis on materials and techniques. The International Journal of Prosthodontics is dedicated to exploring and developing this conceptual shift in the role of today''s prosthodontist, clinician, and educator alike. The editorial board is composed of a distinguished team of leading international scholars.
