Article Abstract
Purpose: The aim of this in vitro study was to assess whether the accuracy (trueness and precision) of full-arch implant digital impressions can be improved by replacing standard digital impressions (StDIs) with segmented digital impressions (SgDIs), obtained by superimposing short-span digital impressions using a geometric pattern.
Materials And Methods: The study was conducted using a commercial edentulous maxillary model with four implants-positioned at the sites of the canines and second molars-and four commercial intraoral scan bodies (ISBs) screwed to them. Ten StDIs and SgDIs of the model were obtained, and their accuracy was evaluated and compared in terms of trueness and precision, based on measurements of three distances and three angles between the ISBs.
Results: The results of this study indicated that the SgDIs were significantly more accurate than the StDIs. The trueness and precision of the three distances measured in the SgDIs were better than those of the distances measured in the StDIs, in a statistically significant way. The trueness and precision of the angles measured in the SgDIs were, in general, also better than those of the angles measured in the StDIs, but in this case the differences were not statistically significant for all the measured angles.
Conclusions: Based on the results of this study, it was concluded that improving the accuracy of full-arch digital implant impressions through segmentation is feasible, even showing that accuracy values compatible with a passive fit of implant-supported full-arch prostheses can be achieved.

Purpose: This study aims to compare the occlusal trueness and precision of teeth manufactured using two modern digital milling processes.
Materials And Methods: A total of 38 complete dentures (CDs) were fabricated and analyzed. CDs in Group 1 (monolithic) (n = 19) were produced using a monolithic bicolor resin disk, whereas in Group 2 (oversize) (n = 19) were fabricated using the oversize process, which involves two separate resin disks of different colors.
The present article describes a dental implant planning workflow to solve the CBCT artifact problem. The technique uses a radiopaque 3D-printed tray to take impressions and complete data alignment of the dental arches where implants are planned. From the impressions, 3D Boolean inversion is performed to obtain the surface mesh of teeth and virtually remove the undercut of dentition mesh before an implant surgical guide is designed.

Phosphate and nitrite, two essential nutrients in marine ecosystems, exhibit dynamic concentration distributions due to complex biogeochemical processes. Accurate quantification of these nutrients requires analytical methods with both high sensitivity and a broad dynamic range. Here, we present an automated syringe pump-based analyzer coupled with a long pathlength liquid waveguide capillary cell (LWCC), incorporating a robust automated dilution program, for simultaneous determination of phosphate and nitrite in seawater across nanomolar and micromolar concentrations.

Objectives: To investigate the fabrication and fit accuracy of three-unit definitive resin fixed partial dentures (FPDs) manufactured with different vat polymerization technologies, and to compare them with those manufactured subtractively.
Methods: A total of 48 three-unit posterior fixed partial dentures (FPDs) were fabricated either additively from a resin intended for definitive use (VarseoSmile Triniq) with low force display (Form 4B, AM-LFD), digital light processing (Max UV, AM-DLP), and liquid crystal display (SOL, AM-LCD) technologies, or subtractively from high-impact polymer composite (breCAM.HIPC, SM) (n = 12).
