First seen Feb 22, 2026 · Last updated May 08, 2026 · Updated 12 times

Summary

This study will use a 3D intraoral scanner to measure plaque buildup on natural teeth, composite fillings, and ceramic veneers in 45 healthy adults. Participants will stop brushing for 4 days to allow plaque to accumulate, then undergo scanning and plaque scoring. The goal is to see how well the 3D method compares to traditional plaque indexes and to identify which surfaces trap the most plaque.
