The aim of this study is to assess the precision of the complete crown technique employed for the superimposition of 3D models, specifically in the quantitative volumetric evaluation of gingival tissues. This technique was initially introduced in an in-vitro study by Dritsas et al. (2023) as a means to achieve an accurate, reproducible, and simple method for quantification of gingival recession.
This study will involve the analysis of digital models in. ply format acquired through intraoral scanning of patients scheduled for esthetic crown lengthening, with predefined inclusion and exclusion
Patients requiring esthetic crown lengthening.
Full-mouth plaque and bleeding score not exceeding 20%.
Presence of at least 2.5 mm keratinized tissue width (Pontoriero & Carnevale, 2001).
Patients showing motivation to comply with post-operative care instructions and follow-up appointments.
1. Systemic health conditions that contraindicate or affect healing of periodontal surgery.
