Dentists seek gentler way for perfect tooth scans

NCT ID NCT07119281

Summary

This study tested different methods dentists use to gently push back the gum line before taking a digital scan of a tooth. Researchers compared four techniques on 32 healthy participants to see which one provided the clearest scan picture while causing the least bleeding and discomfort. The goal is to help dentists choose the best, least invasive method for creating accurate digital models of teeth, especially for visible front teeth.
