Design outcomes

Primary

MeasureTime frame
Fit of complete denture bases measured by both conventional and digital impressions will undergo a 3D analysis after converting them to STL files to determine how close the digital impression is to the conventional impression, considering the conventional one as a reference while creating a colour map to showcase the difference, immediately after taking both impressions via Geomagic X.

Secondary

MeasureTime frame
Retention of complete denture bases. Two resin bases will be printed from both impressions, then assessed by two specialists at the department of removable prosthodontics in Damascus University after printing the resin complete denture bases.
