TL;DR: Ambient lighting conditions influenced the accuracy (trueness and precision) of the IOSs tested, and significant differences for trueness and Precision mean values were observed across different I OSs tested with the same lighting conditions and across different lighting conditions for a given IOS.

TL;DR: The main polymer AM technologies in implant dentistry, as well as their applications in the field such as manufacturing surgical guides, custom trays, working implant casts, and provisional restorations are reviewed.

TL;DR: The primary additive manufacturing technologies used to fabricate metals in implant dentistry and compare them to conventional casting and subtractive methods are reviewed to assess their long-term clinical performance, biological and mechanical complications, and prosthetic restoration capabilities.

TL;DR: Differences in the mesh quality between different IOSs should be expected, and the photographic scanning techniques evaluated presented higher mesh quality mean values than the video-based scanning technology tested.

TL;DR: Using a computer-aided design program, information captured with an intraoral scanner was used to additively manufacture a dual-material occlusal device by using a vat-polymerization printer, resulting in an occlusion device with a resilient intaglio and a hard resin exterior surface.
