Infrared Sensor Technology May Reduce Clinical Time And Number Of Visits In Mounting Process Of Edentulous Casts
The conventional diagnostic mounting procedure in completely edentulous patients is time-consuming and increases the laboratory workload.
Infrared Sensor Technology May Reduce Clinical Time And the Number Of Visits In the Mounting Process Of Edentulous Casts suggests a recent study published in the Journal of Prosthetic Dentistry.
The conventional diagnostic mounting procedure in completely edentulous patients is time-consuming and increases the laboratory workload. Alternatives like optical scanners and jaw tracking devices have been documented but have their own shortcomings.
Results
No significant difference in variation was found between the mean measurements of the device and diagnostic mounting (P>.05).
The maximum variation recorded by the experimental device was 1.7 mm, whereas the minimum variation was 0.8 mm (mean 1.25 mm).
